Gameplay[]

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a role-playing video game featuring turn-based combat and elements of exploration. The game features eight playable characters: Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Yoshi from the Mario franchise, and four Rabbids dressed as the former. The characters wield guns that shoot laser beams. The game features two-player local cooperative play. The characters have the capability of attacking through dashing, firing through weapons and by using team jump (an ability in which one character boosts another to reach further ground than capable). They can defend by entering either full or half cover. Each character has a special skill.

Plot[]

While traveling to Princess Peach's castle, Mario discovers a giant vortex floating above him. Soon after this discovery, Rabbids begin flying out of it. To restore the Mushroom Kingdom, which has been "torn apart" by the mischievous Rabbids, Mario teams up with Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, and four heroic Rabbids that are dressed up as Mario and his friends to defeat their enemies while armed with various weapons. They are aided by Beep-O, a rabbid roomba-like robot that serves as their instructor.

Story[]

In the basement, a young inventor is making some adjustments for the SupaMerge in hopes of having solved the overheating problem so she can help solve an energy crisis in her world with the help from Beep-0, but upon testing it, it ends up overheating again and they decide to take a break as the girl leaves. The Time Washing Machine arrived in the basement and a horde of Rabbids emerge and begin to wreak havoc and one of the Rabbids gets a hold of the SupaMerge device and Beep-0 can only watch as the Rabbids continue to make a mess of things, but it goes from bad to worse when the Rabbid begins using the SupaMerge to fuse the Rabbids with objects that they had and resulted in the creations of Rabbid Peach and Rabbid Mario and caused the Time Washing Machine to pull all of the Rabbids back in, including Beep-0 and the Super Mario poster, transporting them to the Mushroom Kingdom.

Arrival at the Mushroom Kingdom[]

A ceremony takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom where the statue of Princess Peach is unveiled as Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, and Toadette along with numerous Toads were attending. Everything soon falls apart as the vortex in the sky forms and pulls everyone into it. As they fall, Beep-0 gained rabbit ears as well as the outline of the Rabbids' teeth on the front and chastised the Rabbid with the SupaMerge, but the Rabbid had already lost control over the device and ends up merging with it before merging other Rabbids with objects. Beep-0 almost got crushed by the Time Washing Machine but is saved by Mario.

Ancient Gardens[]

Once the dust clears and everyone lands on the ground, Mario encounters Rabbid Peach and Rabbid Luigi but with the SupaMerge's energy becoming corrupted during the transit to the Mushroom Kingdom, the merged Rabbids were rendered hostile, and Beep-0 made the mission to find the Rabbid who merged with the headset. The mysterious F.B., who sends Beep-0 messages throughout the adventure sends the heroes their weapons to fight against the Rabbids. During their travels, they get a glimpse of the vortex which would be referred to as the Megabug. They make it to Princess Peach's Castle where the princess herself was just fine, but Rabbid Peach isn't impressed with her attire. During their exploration through Ancient Gardens, they find Luigi and the Rabbid with the headset, who then merges an ordinary Rabbid with a Pirahna Plant to become a Pirrabbid Plant and they engage in battle with it. After that Rabbid Peach tries to take a selfie with it only to be snatched up, but she does get a selfie in before the heroes free her and restore the monster to normal. Luigi joins the team, but Beep-0 noticed that the Megabug is increasing in size. Bowser Jr. is seen observing it and later befriends the Rabbid with the SupaMerge and names him Spawny. Bowser Jr. intends to take over the Mushroom Kingdom while using Spawny's power to create merged armies to accomplish it while his father, Bowser is on vacation. He summons Rabbid Kong to deal with Mario and his friends, but they managed to defeat him with Rabbid Peach pushing off the tall tower with Rabbid Kong still on it and takes selfies and shares them with Rabbid Luigi, although they would not let Luigi himself look, which he tries to sneak a peek.

Sherbet Desert[]

Mario's team then ventured to Sherbet Desert where they solve numerous puzzles and fight other corrupted Rabbids along the way. As they venture deeper, they find Rabbid Mario trapped in a block of ice and Toad carries him and puts him in the door to help free him, but Rabbid Mario saw and pushes himself out of the door and joins them while befriending Mario. They continue their expedition through the desert, but Bowser Jr. saw them heading in their direction and intimidates Spawny into looking away to create Blizzy and Sandy. The heroes are soon ambushed by Blizzy, who imprisons them in a block of ice, but luckily, Princess Peach arrives to save two of the heroes while Sandy keeps the other hero trapped in the refrigerator. However, Mario and his friends managed to defeat the duo and free the frozen hero.

Spooky Trails[]

Mario's team then heads to Spooky Trails where they would find the Moon Gate that can only open with the Relics of Goodness, a gramophone and a Boo-shaped balloon, under the instruction of a mysterious third party who wants them to wake up a being named "Tom Phan" who they claim has the power to defeat Bowser Jr. After finding the relics, they discover through a message from the mysterious helper that they need a full moon. They run into Calavera, who is holding Rabbid Yoshi hostage throughout the battle, and after Calavera is defeated and Rabbid Yoshi is freed, the latter exacts his revenge on the beast. They reach the clock tower where they have to turn the hands back to get the full moon in just the right position to finally open the gate. Bowser Jr. is revealed to have been behind the mysterious messages and scares Spawny into fusing a Rabbid with a gramophone and the Boo-shaped balloon, creating the Phantom of the Bwahpera, who proceeds to sing an insulting song about Mario and his series throughout the battle, and is soundly defeated by the heroes.

Lava Pit[]

Mario and his friends head to the Lava Pit where they discovered that Bowser Jr. turned the volcano into his base of operations. They traverse through the harsh environment where they eventually run into Jr. again, this time piloting the Mecha Jr., but he would then be defeated and Spawny falls off the ledge, much to Jr.'s horror and leaves in despair. Fortunately, Spawny was saved by Yoshi, who joins the team as they escort Spawny out of the crystal caves. However, Spawny finds himself hypnotized by the energy of the Megabug, now in its phoenix form and absorbs him and flies to Bowser's Castle. Bowser Jr. returned to chastise them for their carelessness with Spawny and saw that the Megabug was at his home and is at first relieved that his father is still on vacation, only to get a text from Bowser that he is returning home early, to Jr.'s shock and rushed there, knowing his father will be in danger. The heroes follow but are intercepted by Bwario and Bwaluigi and the Lava Queen and managed to best them. Once they arrived at Bowser's Castle, Jr. then pleads for them to help Bowser, who is barely conscience and close to the Megabug, who then fuses with him to become MegaDragonBowser and fights against the heroes, but after a tough fight, Bowser is soon liberated and the Megabug then charges at the heroes, who combine their ammunition to destroy the Megabug, closing the vortex and freeing Spawny. Bowser Jr. realized the mess he made and promised to do better and asked them to speak to Bowser on his behalf to sort out the situation he created. The heroes return to Princess Peach's Castle where the statue of Rabbid Peach is inaugurated as Rabbid Peach herself gets all of her new friends in a group photo. After this, Beep-0 sends a letter to his past self with weapons through the Time Washing Machine, revealing that F.B. is actually Future Beep-0.

Donkey Kong Adventure[]

Donkey Kong Adventure takes place in between Chapters 1 and 2 of the main story. After his initial defeat, Rabbid Kong makes it to Peach's Castle where he runs into Spawny, Spawny panics and fires a merge beam into a banana and the Rabbids' time travel washing machine, causing the machine to go haywire. Rabbid Peach carelessly walks to the washing machine to charge her smartphone, causing her and Beep-O to get sucked into the machine along with Rabbid Kong and his follower Rabbids.

Rabbid Peach and Beep-O find themselves in another alternate world where they are attacked by Rabbids, when suddenly Donkey Kong and Rabbid Cranky appear and fend of the enemy Rabbids. DK and Rabbid Cranky agree to help Rabbid Peach and Beep-O fix the washing machine and send them back to their world, but they soon run into Rabbid Kong, who is now much more powerful than before, forcing the four to retreat for the moment. Rabbid Kong is still angry at Rabbid Peach and wants revenge.

Development[]

After the Japanese release of Just Dance in 2011, Nintendo and Ubisoft began experimenting a concept featuring a "new genre" with Mario and the Rabbids, in part due to the over 20 year relationship between the companies. According to producer Xavier Manzanare, Ubisoft's Rabbids developers were not going to make another Rabbids party game due to poor sales of later entries and "internal fatigue", but felt that the Rabbids characters could bring something unique to other genres of games. Creative Director Davide Soliani and the development team (being "tactical fans") proposed creating a turn-based game, but wanted to "stay true to the Mario universe" and developed it with "tactical combat phases with adventure phases" while creating the enemies and tone. Three weeks after an internal pitch meeting, the development team created a playable prototype, featuring Mario and Luigi recreated from scratch in order to "bring the essence of those two characters", and presented it to Nintendo and Shigeru Miyamoto in Kyoto, Japan. Miyamoto was reportedly impressed, telling the development team he wanted a type of Mario game that was never done before and challenged them to make a Mario game with no jumping.

Although pre-release impressions often compared Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle to the long-running X-COM series of turn-based tactics games (and indeed, X-COM's creator Julian Gollop had been invited to work on the game), Davide Soliani cited Mario Kart as a key inspiration for the design of the game, stating the goal was to make a turn-based tactics game that was not only quick and accessible, but also spectator friendly. Handling the crossover aspect was a challenge: Soliani stated that early on, the team was conscious about "having a balance" between the Mario and Rabbids universes, but were encouraged by Nintendo to "not worry about it" and Miyamoto, who said "Show me your colors. Show me your Rabbids' humor even more. Show me how crazy you can be". The developers were also apprehensive about the idea of featuring guns as the primary weapon in a Mario game, but Nintendo approved it the first time it was presented. Soliani characterized Nintendo as open-minded, stating "Every time you are proposing something crazy to Nintendo, they are quite open-minded. But you need a good justification and a good logic to create something in the Mario universe.

The game was officially announced at E3 2017 during Ubisoft's press conference, although images of it were leaked prior. The "leak" caused grief to the development team due to the largely negative reaction, although their fears were assuaged after the game's E3 unveiling was met with a positive response. Upon release, the game garnered positive reception (detailed below).

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is being developed by Ubisoft Paris and Ubisoft Milan using Ubisoft's proprietary Snowdrop game engine. Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto was impressed by the prototype of a Mario and Rabbids crossover game that was presented to him by Ubisoft Milan's creative director Davide Soliani in 2014. That prototype was created in less than a month. Miyamoto felt the concept was easy to understand and that it was refreshing to see Mario placed in a genre of game that he had not anticipated. Development of the game was led under Soliani once their pitch was approved by Nintendo.

The Ubisoft development team traveled to Nintendo's headquarters in Kyoto on several occasions to ensure their understanding of the Mario universe was solid and that their new take on genre had not been covered that much before. Art director Mauro Perini noted that it was important to capture the atmosphere of Nintendo games, however they also wanted to combine the crazier elements of the Rabbids universe with existing components of Mario. Producer Xavier Manzanares wanted the game to offer a deep and content-filled experience that was structured so that the game could be played in short sessions. They felt this format was ideal for the Nintendo Switch system which is capable of being a handheld and a home console. Ubisoft enlisted British video game composer Grant Kirkhope, known for his work on classic titles such as Banjo-Kazooie, to compose the score for the game.

Release[]

Information on a cross-over between the Mario and Raving Rabbids franchises was leaked as early as November 2016, although the title Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was first leaked in May 2017, prior to its official announcement during Ubisoft's press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2017.  The game is was released for the Nintendo Switch on 29 August 2017.  A collector's edition was also released, with a soundtrack CD, cards, and a Rabbid Mario figurine included. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle: Donkey Kong Adventure is a new DLC that features Donkey Kong as a playable character. It is scheduled to release on June 26, 2018.

Pre-release and unused content[]

Early ideas[]

Davide Soliani mentioned a few scrapped ideas during an Ask Me Anything session set on Reddit's Nintendo subreddit.

  • A Rabbid Whomp character.
  • A mechanic called "Fumble", described as "Some weapons were supposed to be truly powerful, but with a high risk of exploding".
  • A parody of the Sailor Moon transformation sequence featuring Rabbid Peach. The animation had previously been posted on Soliani's Twitter account.
  • The Phantom's song was originally meant to have three different styles of music for its three phases, with one phase being an opera song, one being a rap song, and one being a metal song respectively. However, this was scrapped due to the developers believing that the other styles don't work very well.
  • Beep-0 was originall going to be named "Tuttorio".

Glitches[]

An eyeless Goomba can be seen at the far left side of the image. (Taken during Remember the Bwahlamo, the second co-op challenge of Ancient Gardens)

Eyeless Goomba[]

Goombas that are stuck in honey are rendered eyeless if the camera is positioned so that they appear near the side of the screen.

Boo Companion[]

There is a random glitch that makes Boos companions of sorts. There is no specific method to make this glitch occur, but during the glitch, Boos won't teleport the player's heroes to different locations during a battle, and they'll also appear in the player's victory screen after winning a battle. In addition, one or more Boos will follow the player out of battle; additionally, the Boos from the battlefield will still appear, and in specifically in Spooky Trails' secret chapter, the player will not be allowed to leave the area (unless they exit the game via the pause menu).

Random flickering object placement glitch[]

Sometimes in Spooky Trails and Lava Pit, random background objects will randomly flicker around to places they do not belong. Normally, this is a simple thing the game will fix quickly, but in other cases, the glitch will persist and start affecting things around the player, potentially causing coins on moving platforms to get stuck in the ground and similar things. Occasionally, a piece will start to blink over Beep-O, eventually leading to an exception that crashes the game.

Reception[]

When the game was initially leaked, most were skeptical about the very concept of Mario doing a crossover with Rabbids, and thought it wouldn't work at all. Concerns were also raised due to the Rabbids franchise declining in popularity in recent years and those early leaks spoiling the involvement of Mario in the game, which Ubisoft was planning to reveal as a surprise. However, when the game was officially announced at E3 2017 were very well received. Upon launch, the game was praised both from critics and gamers for it's battle mechanics that are easy to learn while still very strategic, excellent presentation, and surprisingly good use of both franchises to make the Rabbids humorous without coming off as annoying.

The game won several awards including Best Strategy Game of 2017, and it is currently the best selling Nintendo Switch game not developed by Nintendo.

Sales[]

As of September 21 2017, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is the best-selling third party game on the Nintendo Switch, and was noted to have outsold at least one first-party game, although no specific numbers were disclosed. According to NPD Group data, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was the 7th best-selling individual game for September 2017. In France, the game sold over 150,000 copies in 2017.

Awards and acknowledgements[]

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was nominated for two awards at The Game Awards 2017, winning one, in the following categories:

  • "Best Strategy Game" (Won). Other nominees were XCOM 2: War of the Chosen, Tooth and Tail, Total War: Warhammer II, and Halo Wars 2.
  • "Best Family Game" (Nominated). Lost to Super Mario Odyssey.

References in later games[]

  • Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Mario, and Rabbid Kong (using his Mega Rabbid Kong artwork) appear in this game as Spirits.

Trivia[]

  • Prior to its official announcement, the game was codenamed "Rabbids Kingdom Battle" to hide the fact that the Super Mario Bros. franchise was part of the game.
  • Because of this, the game's composer Grant Kirkhope was completely unaware that he would be composing for a Mario game until after he accepted the contract and was shown a prototype of the game.
  • When Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was officially announced, Ubisoft was made aware that there is a Youtuber named Rabbidluigi who by complete coincidence shares his name with the game's character Rabbid Luigi. In response, Ubisoft sent him merchandise of the game and a review copy.
  • Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was not the first attempt by Ubisoft to crossover Mario with the Rabbids: in 2010, Ubisoft Paris had pitched a Mario/Rabbids crossover adventure game for the Wii, which ended up being rejected by Nintendo.
  • In the opening sequence, Genius Girl opens a magazine, which shows herself in a posture referencing Pagan Min, the main antagonist of Ubisoft's Far Cry 4, which is taken from that game's box art.
  • In Spooky Trails, Beep-0 says "Drawing a live Rabbid on your tarot card means chaos, destruction, laughter and giant toilets are in your future" when, he check the tarot. It is predicated Skibidi Toilet.
  • his is the first Mario game that has been mainly developed by an Italian company.
