The Invasion 2 is an episode for Super Mario Bros. X game and its branches. This is a remake of The Invasion. It was made to include new features from the later versions of Super Mario Bros. X. The remake also features a clear story, something the original lacks. Aside from that, the overall gameplay is the same.
Plot
Bowser has, yet again, invaded the Mushroom Kingdom. But this time, he has the help of villains "from other realities" (i.e., different games). Unlike many other Mario games, however, Bowser has not kidnapped a princess. Instead, Mario (or whoever the player chooses to play as) has to stop his invasion.
Gameplay
The episode contains many new features, gimmicks, and extras. Bowser is still the main antagonist, but this time around he has the help of new villains, such as King Wart, Ludwig von Koopa, False Bowser, Mother Brain, Larry Koopa and Mouser.
Originally released with Super Mario Bros. X 1.2, the episode has constantly been updated in small ways with each new version released. It is the default episode that comes packaged with Super Mario Bros. X, and it is the main story of Super Mario Bros. X itself.
