The Moon Kingdom is a region in Super Mario Odyssey. It is the greater location of Honeylune Ridge, and the fourteenth and final story kingdom accessed in the game. As its name suggests, it is located on the Moon; because of this, the gravity in the kingdom outdoors is much lighter than in previous kingdoms, enabling Mario to jump higher and farther and remain in the air for a longer period of time. Honeylune Ridge (a portmanteau of "honeymoon" and "lune") is the place set to hold Bowser and Princess Peach's wedding, therefore being Mario and Cappy's final destination in the main game.

After rescuing Princess Peach from Bowser, Mario and Cappy can visit the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom (other than Yoshi's House).

Brochure details

Specially designed to amplify the bell's ring.

Wedding Hall

Legends tell of a moon goddess, and this wedding hall is said to have been created in her honor, though no one knows for sure. The stunning exterior contrasts beautifully with the black sky, a symbol of Honeylune Ridge. Weddings here are often open, so lucky travelers can join the party.

They roll perfectly along the lunar surface.

Lunar Life Forms

The surface of the moon is harsh, but a few creatures do live there. Take heed if tempted to study their unique shape and movement up close, as they have sharp spikes. it's probably best to observe them from a safe vantage point.

Interestingly, similar creatures can be found in the Seaside Kingdom. Did life on our planet (which began in the seas) actually originate on the moon?

Unusual energies emanate from them.

Cubes of Mystery

Possessing unique metallic properties, it's hard to imagine how these cubic Moon Rocks formed naturally, but they can be found in great abundance up here. Similar rocks have also been found in various areas on the planet, and the method of their formation remains shrouded in mystery. We recommend seeking one out and pondering its mysteries up close!

Apparently the interior has different gravity.

Lunar Interior: Secrets

We've heard stories about extensive caverns beneath the lunar interior. There's an entrance directly into the moon rock that's easily accessed, but it sounds quite dangerous inside.

On the other hand, tales abound of thrills and mysteries waiting within, so it may be worth investigating. Be sure to take the necessary precautions before you go, though!

Sunsets are SO last year.

A View to Remember

Our world as seen from the Wedding Hall is something everyone needs to experience at least once in their life. With the planet as your witness, it's no wonder weddings are held here.

Odyssey

SMO Moon Moon 1.png
Main article: Odyssey

The Odyssey lands in the southeastern corner of the kingdom. Hint Toad, Uncle amiibo, and a Starshroom Crazy Cap are to the right of the landing site. Next to the Odyssey is a small crater with three Hidden Blocks and a Power Moon above it. A larger nearby crater has a Power Moon moving underground. It can be unearthed by Ground Pounding it.

Ringing-Bells Plateau

Ringing-Bells Plateau

Ringing-Bells Plateau is a flat, spacious piece of land in the center of the kingdom with two Rocket Flowers growing in craters as well as a Moonsnake. It is northwest of the Odyssey and south of the Quiet Wall. To the left of the plateau is a secluded platform with a treasure chest containing a Power Moon. Mario can reach the platform and the chest with a Long Jump or through use of a Rocket Flower. To the right is an elevated area with a rainbow treble clef. Touching it makes two sets of notes appear, which can be grabbed with Long Jumps. Collecting all of them in the allotted time reveals a Power Moon.

SMO Moon Brochure E.png

This Checkpoint Flag is in front of the entrance to the Underground Moon Caverns. Around the wall, to the right, is the Sphynx. Before Bowser has been defeated, his only question is 'Should you really be answering questions right now?' After Bowser's defeat, the Sphynx gives Mario a small set of questions as usual. Answering one question correctly opens up a doorway leading to a small hidden area containing a Power Moon in a treasure chest. To the right are Binoculars and an Astro-Lanceur orbiting a crater with six regional coins above a Hat Trampoline.
