Multi Moons are collectable items in Super Mario Odyssey. Equivalent to the Grand Stars in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, they are usually collected after the player completes a level with a boss (with the exception of Bowser) or another story-related mission. They count as three Power Moons when powering up the Odyssey, although they are counted only as one on the list of Moons in a kingdom. Like the Power Moons, the Multi Moons are given specific colors depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Collecting a Multi Moon teleports Mario back to the Odyssey.

Colors[edit]

Multi Moons feature a different color depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Their color also matches the color of the kingdom's Power Moons and the pole of the kingdom's Checkpoint Flag. Like Power Moons, after they are collected, they lose their color and appear translucent the next time they are collected. The Multi Moons in the boss rematch paintings, Dark Side, and Darker Side are the only ones that can be collected again. Unlike the regular Power Moons in the Mushroom Kingdom, the Multi Moons in that kingdom (during the bosses' rematches) are not shaped like Power Stars.

  • Multi Moons were originally called Grand Moons during the E3 playthrough.[1]
  • White is the only Power Moon color not to represent a Multi Moon.
  • Unlike with normal Power Moons, the victory animation will still play if an already grabbed Multi Moon is collected again.
    • As of the version 1.2.0 update with Luigi's Balloon World added, the already collected Multi Moon no longer appears in front of Mario and Cappy on the screen in the victory animation.
