One T-Rex can be found in the Cascade Kingdom, another wearing a fedora can be found sleeping in the Deep Woods section of the Wooded Kingdom,[3] and another wearing aviator goggles can be found in the Metro Kingdom.[4] The ones in the Cascade and Wooded Kingdoms can be captured, and unlike the other captures, it can only be controlled for a limited time, due to Cappy requiring a lot of effort to keep such a large creature captured. Once the time expires, the T-Rex disappears and goes back to sleep at its original point.
According to Kenta Motokura, the director of Super Mario Odyssey, the T-Rex's realistic design was influenced by Super Mario World, another game where Mario is alongside dinosaurs.
