“Things get really hairy in World 6, where Mario must conquer a rugged mountain terrain. To make matters worse, Bowser Jr. has arranged for two towers to stand in your way instead of one like in previous worlds.”
Official website

World 6 is a world in New Super Mario Bros. This world map and most levels are made up of rocky canyons and mountain-like terrain, though some levels borrow themes and concepts from previous worlds. This world introduces the new enemies Fire Bars, Mega Deep-Cheeps, Deep-Cheeps, and Chain Chomps. The boss of this world is Monty Tank, a Monty Mole in a tank that fires Bullet Bills at Mario or Luigi. To defeat him, the player needs to jump on his head three times when Monty's head is exposed to throw Bob-ombs at the player. After the completion of this world, the player instantly gains access to World 8.

World 6 is the only world in the entire game to feature Chain Chomps. This is the only world apart from World 8 to have two towers before the main boss of the world and no secret exits. This is also one of the two only worlds to not have a Ghost House since World 3, the other being World 8.

World 6 can be skipped if the player gains access to World 7 by defeating Petey Piranha, the boss of World 5, in mini form.

TriviaEdit

  • World 6 is one of two worlds in the game that has two towers. Similarly, the mountain-themed Rock-Candy Mines in New Super Mario Bros. U - which also happens to be the sixth world in said game - is the only one with two towers in that game.
