Nintendo added a new chapter called the Epilogue to Rosalina's storybook in the Switch port of Super Mario Galaxy 2, more than ten years after the game's original release [1]. The Epilogue becomes available after players unlock the Final Chapter in the storybook and can be accessed by clearing any galaxy and earning a Power Star [1].
In the new chapter, Rosalina visits a garden alone where she observes two lights chasing each other through the sky. She then interacts with a young girl whose identity is not explicitly confirmed [1]. Some players have speculated the girl might be Princess Peach or a younger version of Rosalina, but the chapter leaves her identity ambiguous [1].
The story includes a line from Rosalina: "The strongest force in the galaxy is a heart that never gives up," highlighting her enduring spirit [1].
This update adds fresh lore to a game that remains popular well over a decade after its original release, giving longtime fans new narrative content to explore [1]. Meanwhile, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie recently received a two-star review from Eurogamer and will be digitally available starting May 5, 2026 [1].
