The Lake Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey is a world that’s mostly underwater. Players will have to swim and use Cappy to capture some of the aquatic life to get around
Since there are so many Power Moons in Super Mario Odyssey , we’re breaking down each Kingdom with separate guides.
Completionists will want to collect every Power Moon in every Kingdom, but it can be a bit tricky. Most of the Power Moons in each Kingdom won’t be accessible until after you complete the story. In the Lake Kingdom, you’ll only be able to obtain 33 Power Moons before beating the story, so be sure to come back when you’re done.
