Super Mario Maker 2 has only been out for a short couple of weeks now, but the die-hard Mario fans have been hard at work creating some amazing levels that will make your jaw drop or they might make you throw your controller in frustration. Here are just some of the hardest levels in Super Mario Maker 2 that we’ve come across, so far.
Hector’s Ascension
Creator: ryuSMM
Course ID: X8B-9X8-3FF
Hector’s Ascension requires you to complete the course with the Cat Mario suit equipped and it features a lava theme that requires you to do tons of aerial platforming without touching the deadly molten substance.
There are spikes all across the level and so many other things going on that will make it hard for you to get to the end. With a clear rate of only o.06%, good luck trying to get that world record, let alone complete this course without going insane.
Lethal Ejection
Creator: dansalvato
Course ID: 974-00B-RSG
If you’ve been wandering around the fan-created levels of Mario Maker 2, specifically the most popular ones, then you might’ve run into Lethal Ejection, a terrifyingly difficult SMM2 course that uses on/off blocks and perfectly timed jumps to make your life a living nightmare.
Considering that this YouTuber spent dozens and dozens of attempts to just get past the first few seconds of the course, it just goes to show how painstakingly demanding this course is. Keep watching and you’ll see this guy begin to crumble underneath the pain.
DieVine Garden
Creator: PePanga
Course ID: LM6-TM7-VKF
This Super Mario Maker 2 creation will blow your mind once you watch the creator himself attempt to complete it in the video above. This level requires perfect precision and forces the player to do some insane moves with 3D World Mario like long-jumps, ground-pounds and lots and lots of spins.
Just watching the video of somebody playing it makes my body squirm.
Super Skyzo
Creator: PePanga
Course ID: 9C4-7NB-M0H
You know, I’m totally down for creative and somewhat challenging 2D Mario courses but this stage that was also created by PePanga is just so over-the-top that I don’t even want to attempt this on my own.
If you guys want to deal with the heartache and pain of this ridiculous course then, by all means, be my guest. You might have better luck if you watch the creator complete it with such ease, but I wish you all of the luck.
Fishboned
Creator: Potatotot
Course ID: Y31-GBS-3RG
We all know how annoying and stressful these “troll” levels can be, but I had to include this one on the list just because of how silly and irritating it is.
Fishboned trolls you over and over again, making you think that you’re taking the correct path or doing the right action, and then makes fun of you for falling for the creator’s tricks and traps.
This one has a clear rate of a whopping 1% and you can see why once you spend some time with it.
Stone Temple Pilot
Creator: GlitchCat7
Course ID: QC1-9CH-XWF
Stone Temple Pilot has you running head to head with a huge Thwomp and if you’re not doing long jumps and spins fast enough, prepare to face death. This course requires challengers to use all of Mario’s moves from Super Mario 3D World and literally pushes you to never slow down.
The Terminator
Creator: Barb
Course ID: MSS-PYL-WLG
With a 0.07% completion rate, Barbs fiery course is full of little tricks and touches that will take several attempts for players to get a good grasp on. Like the name of the course, prepare to be TERMINATED.
Arrow World
Creator: James58
Course ID: W2H-1Q4-N2G
This Arrow World course designed by James58 has such a low clear rate that it’s basically 0% as of the recording of this video.
Only a select few players have managed to complete it (like 8) and with all of the tight platforming, springs, and pow blocks at play, it’s easy to see why people are struggling to get to the end.
Course ID: GJC-43G-BQF
We didn’t post the name or creator of this course because it’s in Japanese, but we still had to share with you guys because it’s really quite challenging. The premise is simple: all you have to do is correctly jump between deadly spikes as little Mario.
But, make one mistake and it’s all over for you and your Super Mario Maker 2 career.
Pit of PePanga: Zero G’s Given
Creator: PePanga
Course ID: NS2-23Y-X6G
PePanga is on a roll creating some truly fantastic courses in Super Mario Maker 2, and Zero G’s Given is no exception. This one is fairly short and sweet, but since it uses zero gravity to make objects and enemies fall slower than usual, expect for there to be some surprises that you might not have been expecting!
That does it for our list of some of the hardest Super Mario Maker 2 courses out there right now! For more on the new Switch title, make sure to check out our review as well as our opinion piece on the online cooperative/competitive multiplayer.
