It's been known for a while this game was coming, today Ubisoft made it official with the above trailer. It’ll be out for the Switch on August 29th 2017.
Here is a developer's look at the game:
I can't believe they are going FPS on a mario game. the times have changed.
it's a turn based RPG
I'm kind of on the fence about this game. I'm a Mario fan but I'm not sure about this game. If someone gets this game, will you tell me how well you like/dislike it?
I think that's why I'm sold on this game. It seems like Mario and Luigi Superstar saga to me. It has that charm factor along with what should be some great comedy bits. The battle system looks solid from what they demoed. Can't wait.I'll be honest, the leaks had me thinking this game would be terrible. The reveal at the Ubisoft conference completely changed my mind. I'll definitely get this game at some point. I'm not really into the whole Rabbids and Minions scene, but their creative take on Mario enemies is charming.
Plus, I'll admit it, I'm a total softie and I decided to give it a shot the second I saw Davide Soliani crying out of pride. That seriously moved me and I'm going to stop my prejudices and try to judge this game accordingly.
The only redeeming quality is that I get to blast Minions, I mean Rabbids with laser guns.
