Paper Mario is back with The Origami King!
We can't wait to see what's in store.
Everything is a little easier with a helping hand, that's what companions are for!
Yes, there will be partners alongside Mario, here they are.
All Confirmed Partners In Paper Mario: The Origami King
In the game's trailer, we spotted the following:
- Olivia - King Olly's sister trying to stop his plans
- Bobby Bob-Omb - Bobby has lost his memory
- Kamek - Bowser's minion
- Koopa
- Folded Bowser
- Professor Toad - a professor of ancient history
- Bowser Jr
- Luigi
- Toad
The game's Chinese trailer (which has since been deleted) also clearly shows Toad as a partner in the game.

It's unclear how exactly the partners will work and play a part in this latest game. However, we can assume it will operate similar to previous instalments as there is a clear opportunity to use them during battles.
With the new Ring-Based Battle System, it's difficult to predict how partners will contribute to this.
