Any%

Any% is a term used in speedrunning to denote the objective of simply clearing the game without the requirement of completing anything else. The Super Mario Odyssey Any% run begins when selecting the Start button on a new save file, and ends when Mario shoots out of the final wire in the Moon Kingdom during the Bowser escape sequence.

Route

The route in Any% is mostly modular, meaning each kingdom has it's own route that doesn't impact any major aspect of the route in another kingdom (with the minor exception of coin routing)

The complete route document can be found here.
