All Super Mario Party Jamboree characters and how to unlock them

Super Mario Party Jamboree is the latest installment in the long-running virtual board game experience, bringing with it even more minigames, and the largest roster of characters in all of the series.

Here, we’ll reveal who will be available for selection this time around as well as how to unlock the two hidden characters so you can have the full list to choose from!

All Super Mario Party Jamboree playable characters

As always, there are various characters from the Mario franchise that you can pick from to take part in chasing those all-important stars across the game boards.

In Jamboree, there are 22 total playable characters, and here is the full list:

  • Mario
  • Luigi
  • Peach
  • Daisy
  • Wario
  • Waluigi
  • Yoshi
  • Toadette
  • Toad
  • Rosalina
  • Donkey Kong
  • Birdo
  • Bowser
  • Goomba
  • Shy Guy
  • Koopa
  • Monty Mole
  • Bowser Jr.
  • Boo
  • Spike
  • Ninji
  • Pauline

If you’ve loaded up the game and are wondering where Ninji and Pauline are in the selection screen, they’re ‘secret’ characters that must be unlocked.

Luckily, it’s pretty easy to get both which we’ll touch on now.

How to unlock Ninji in Super Mario Party Jamboree

While you might think it’ll be an arduous task to secure Ninji, you can actually do it as soon as you’re in the Party Plaza.

Head straight to the Balloon which allows you to toggle between modes and take to the skies.

Move your camera toward the Rhythm Kitchen building and zoom in behind where Ninji will be standing on a small green island.

After fully zooming in, you’ll get a small cutscene and then a screen stating Ninji is unlocked.

How to unlock Pauline in Super Mario Party Jamboree

If you want to complete the roster with Ninji now unlocked, you’ll need to acquire Pauline too.

Thankfully, you do think in pretty much the same way as Ninji where you need to locate her using the binoculars.

Instead of looking toward Rhythm Kitchen, you’ll instead need to move your gaze to Minigame Bay and she will be waiting on a small sand island to the left.
