Recommended Videos

A Mario and Rabbids crossover may not have been the game you were expecting to play just six months after the Nintendo Switch launched, let alone a turn-based strategy game that closely resembles the format of XCOM, just with more selfies. However, Ubisoft, with the use of Nintendo’s cast of Mushroom Kingdom inhabitants, has created a unique and incredibly fun game.

Kingdom Battle is deep yet accessible, making it perfect for seasoned strategy fans and the younger Rabbids fans. It is funny and adorable, its world is vibrant and expansive, and it has well and truly proved anyone who said the concept wouldn’t work wrong.
