Princess Peach: Showtime!: All costumes & transformations
NintendoPrincess Peach: Showtime allows the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom to gain power-ups from her costumes. Here are all of the outfits and transformations revealed so far.
Mario is well-known for power-ups that change his outfits, with the recent Super Mario Bros. Wonder letting him turn into an elephant. Princess Peach can also do this in some games where she appears alongside Mario, changing clothes and her power set.
Princess Peach: Showtime puts her in the starring role, and much like the Mario games, she’ll be gaining new powers alongside a change of outfits. She’ll need them as she faces a new foe: Grape and the Sour Bunch.
Nintendo has been revealing more and more of her transformations before the game’s launch on March 22. These are all the costumes and outfits revealed for Princess Peach: Showtime.

Cowgirl Peach
Cowgirl Peach gives her the power of Indiana Jones, as she can grab enemies with her lasso and toss them to defeat them. She also has stages where she rides a horse, chasing down enemies in wild west-themed stages.
Dashing Thief Peach
Princess Peach seems to have joined Persona 5’s Phantom Thieves of Heart, as this transformation turns her into a masked thief. Dashing Thief Peach can hang from railings and use a grappling hook to reach new areas, while avoiding nasty robots.
Detective Peach
Detective Peach takes the magnifying glass from Pikachu and gets to work as a sleuth. She can track footprints and question suspects in this outfit, like a Phoenix Wright game. It’s unclear if she gains any combat powers in this garb or whether it’s saved for story segments.
Figure Skater Peach
The obligatory ice level is returning in Princess Peach Showtime, but this time, she’ll be ready, as Figure Skater Peach can easily maneuver across the frozen floor. She also has a spin attack for dealing with foes, as well as trapping them in a deadly dance move.
Kung Fu Peach
Having grown weary of royal society, Kung Fu Peach decides she will kick and punch enemies in the face. In this form, she can swing from poles to perform attacks with a wide radius and is seen leaping from platform to platform.
Mermaid Peach
Fan artists and cosplayers of the world have been given a great gift, as there’s now a Mermaid Peach. Instead of controlling her directly, the player will use Mermaid Peach’s singing voice to command a school of fish, which can move through underwater stages.
Mighty Peach
Princess Peach is finally entering the superhero genre, with the power of her Mighty Peach form. When utilizing her Mighty Peach power-up, Princess Peach gains super strength, allowing her to throw big objects across the stage. She also has flying levels, where she gets to clobber aliens with her mighty fists.
Ninja Peach
Ninja Peach allows her to channel her inner Naruto, as she gains the ability to sneak through tall grass and perform stealth kills on unsuspecting enemies. That’s right, there’s a Mario game where Princess Peach performs stealth kills. She can also perform wall jumps to reach higher stages.
Patisserie Peach
Taking a leaf out of Kirby’s book, Patissiere Peach will be baking cakes in this outfit. This costume seems restricted to minigame stages, as she’s seen decorating desserts with a giant pastry tool rather than running around levels.
Swordfighter Peach
With a rapier in hand, Swordfighter Peach can stab through enemies like a Musketeer. In this form, she can perform a rising sword attack, slash enemies in front and behind her, and perform a descending slash, like Link from The Legend of Zelda.
