Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Turns Out to be Great
Admit it. When you first heard the rumors that the Nintendo Switch would be getting a Mario and Rabbids crossover title, you immediately wrote it off. That’s ok, pretty much everyone else did as well. Yet, when Nintendo and Ubisoft officially revealed Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle at E3 earlier this year, and when we finally got our hands on it, it took everyone by surprise. This wasn’t some mini-game compilation. This was a seriously fun and deep take from Nintendo on the turn-based strategy genre.
We were pleasantly surprised by the form Mario + Rabbids took. After all, you couldn’t blame Nintendo for being protective of Mario and the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom. However, with Ubisoft managing to do such an excellent job with Nintendo’s iconic IP, there’s some hope that we could see more of these crossovers in the future, perhaps even with other developers.
