'''''Paper Mario: The Origami King''''' is the sixth installment in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series and the first ''Paper Mario'' game for the [[Nintendo Switch]], which released worldwide on July 17, 2020. The game follows [[Mario]] opposing an evil army of origami characters known as [[Folded Soldiers]], ruled by the Origami King, [[King Olly]]; which have taken over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].


The game follows the gameplay style of its two predecessors, ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. As in these previous entries, role-playing elements are deemphasized in favor  of action-adventure mechanics, which focus on exploration and puzzle-solving in individual areas rather than emphasizing character growth over the entire game. Also like the previous games, ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' is focused around an aspect of arts and crafts. Whilst ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'' had a focus on stickers and ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' had a focus on paint, ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' is focused around {{wp|origami}}. Similarly, the game's environments graphically resemble crafts, and many of the game's bosses are based around some kind of crafting tool. Unlike the entries directly before, however, ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' has levels that are directly connected rather than being segregated through a level select screen, similar to the first two games in the series. Similar to ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Bowser is not the primary antagonist in exchange for an original villain. ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' does not feature a battle system which uses finite items for combat, as it instead uses an original ring-based system which uses puzzle-solving instead of strategy.
