Bowser's Fury Walkthrough - Super Mario 3D World and Bowser's Fury Guide - IGN (2025)

Bowser's Fury Walkthrough

As the Bowser’s Fury adventure begins, you will be able to visit certain islands in the lake to acquire several Cat Shines in each island, as well as additional shines hidden outside of the islands. Certain islands will alter their appearance once you have claimed a Shine, and you can leave and revisit the location to get new shines. Other shines may also appear across the lake as you unlock more areas.

Since you can obtain Cat Shines in almost any order you wish, there’s no one set way to unlocking the necessary amount of shines to defeat Bowser. You can view the sections below for details on how to obtain every Cat Shine. Additionally, you can use the checklist trackers on this page to mark islands complete -- or use the expanded checklists at the top of this guide to track each and every Shine.
