The '''Floating Jump''' (sometimes known as the '''Floaty Jump''') is a move primarily used by [[Princess Peach]].


It first appears in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where the player can hold the Jump button during a jump to have Peach vertically hover in place briefly. This ability was the result of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' being a repurposed version of ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', with Peach inheriting Lina's abilities, including her jump. The move returns in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] (as of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', her debut in that series) and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' with the same properties.

In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', the move works differently, as Peach slowly descends for as long as the screen is held instead of briefly hovering.

In later games, such as ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Peach can use her [[Peach's Parasol|parasol]] to float, though she still slowly descends. She also uses her parasol as her [[Peach Parasol (move)|up special move]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', this move, as well as the parasol, is also present for [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], and works in the same fashion as Peach's, due to her being an Echo Fighter of Peach.
In later games, such as ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Peach can use [[Peach's Parasol|her parasol]] to float, though in the latter two games, she still slowly descends. She also uses her parasol as her [[Peach Parasol (move)|up special move]] in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, where it also slows her fall. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', this move, as well as the parasol, is also present for [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], and works in the same fashion as Peach's, due to her being an Echo Fighter of Peach.


It also appears in ''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]'', where it appears as [[Mini Peach]]'s special move. It is performed whenever the toy walks off a platform or a ledge, making it capable of floating across large gaps. This grants Mini Peach access to areas other Minis cannot reach. The move needs to be executed in [[Level 6]] to access Mini Peach's assigned [[amiibo Door]] by removing a [[Long Spring]] that leads to it. The door leads to Mini Peach's set of levels, [[Balloon Float Castle]], where it makes extensive use of this ability.

In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'', Peach performs this jump in her unlock cutscene, and when jumping off high ground and entering a new world or [[MegaDragonBowser]]'s arena if she is in the party.


In the [[Nintendo Switch]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', [[Funky Kong]] can perform this move using his surfboard.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', [[Toadette]] can use this move as [[Peachette]]; it works just as Peach's does in ''Super Mario Run''.

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Peach performs a Floating Jump as she descends from the [[Goal Pole]] of the [[Training Course (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Training Course]].<ref>Illumination (April 3, 2023). [https://youtu.be/yP-Qduvw9zY The Super Mario Bros. Movie | Princess Peach Training Course Clip]. ''YouTube''.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', Peach does not naturally have access to the Floating Jump. However, all playable characters can equip the Parachute Cap [[badge (Super Mario Bros. Wonder)|badge]], which functions similarly to Peach's Floating Jump from ''Super Mario Run'' but uses a [[cap]] instead.
