Nintendo’s Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake has been rated in Brazil and Korea.
The Switch game, which was announced earlier this year, is a remake of a cult favourite GameCube title, and currently holds a placeholder release date of 2024.
However, it’s possible that since the game is already beginning to arrive at rating boards, the release could come early in the year.
The Thousand-Year Door was released to critical acclaim in 2004, and currently has a score of 87 on Metacritic.
The game won Console Role Playing Game of the Year at the 8th Interactive Achievement Awards (now known as the DICE Awards).
