Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is an upcoming role-playing crossover title between the Mario franchise and Ubisoft's Raving Rabbids titles to be released for the Nintendo Switch. It was officially announced at E3 2017 during Ubisoft's press conference, though artwork for the title leaked online on May 23, 2017, and is set to be released in America on August 29th, 2017.
Plot
Mario travels to Princess Peach's Castle to find a giant vortex floating above it. Soon after this discovery, Rabbids begin flying out of it. To restore the Mushroom Kingdom, which has been "torn apart" by mischievous Rabbids, to its normal state, Mario teams up with Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, and heroic Rabbids to defeat enemies while armed with weapons.[1]
Gameplay
The game is estimated to be composed of 35% exploration elements and 65% turn-based combat.[2] A multiplayer, local co-op mode has also been confirmed. The combat is weapon-based, with the weapons resembling guns.
The exploration aspect of the gameplay is controlled by Beep-O, a new character to be introduced.[3] There will be seven enemy archetypes, and one mid-boss and boss per world; there are a total of four world environments.
