Variety of Weapons and Enemies
Mario and his crew have always had their own unique abilities and weapons at their disposal. Whether it’s in a more traditional title or one of the Mario spin-offs, there’s always plenty of reasons to choose your favorite character over another. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle looks set to continue this trend, with each of the eight playable characters having their own unique weapons for taking down the enemy Rabbids.
During the game’s announcement trailer, we saw the playable characters holding their own unique weapons, and most importantly, it looks like Luigi has his very own vacuum weapon, too. Oh, and a Rabbid held a giant banana and it was adorable. Exactly how different these weapons will work remains to be seen, but in the gameplay explanation, enemies could be seen suffering from status effects such as burn. It looks like these will be applied depending on the weapons your team is using.
However, it’s not just your team that will have buffs and special weapons at their disposal. During the announcement trailer, a Rabbid could be seen wearing a Piranha Plant costume who then wreaked havoc on poor Rabbid Peach. Enemies could also be seen wearing different outfits, and some larger Rabbids could be seen, too.
