This article is about a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this article may need major rewriting. This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.
- This article is about the enemy from Super Mario Odyssey. For the character from the Super Mario World television series, see T-Rex (character).
The T-Rex[1][2] is an enemy from Super Mario Odyssey that can be controlled by Cappy. It is based off of the real, and extinct Tyrannosaurus rex.
One T-Rex can be found in the Cascade Kingdom, while another wearing a fedora can be found sleeping in the Deep Woods section of the Wooded Kingdom.[3]
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. The development team wanted to include a dinosaur never seen in a Mario game before in hopes of surprising the player, causing the developers to steer away from the more cartoonish and caricatured dinosaur designs used in Super Mario World.[4]
