Mario and Luigi: Brothership announced for Switch
Nintendo has announced Mario & Luigi: Brothership for Switch.
Revealed fueing Tuesday’s Nintendo Direct presentation, the game will be released on November 7, 2024.
Brothership is the first new entry in the Mario & Luigi series in almost nine years. It’s not clear who is developing the game, since the series’ original developer Alpha Dream went bankrupt in 2019.
Nintendo describes the new game as a “seafaring adventure that unfolds over mysterious islands”.
“All aboard for an island-hopping RPG adventure starring Mario and Luigi!” Nintendo said. “The brothers are back for a brand-new entry in the Mario & Luigi series, where they set sail on Shipshape Island (part ship, part island) to navigate the vast world of Concordia.
“Play as the moustachioed pair and explore islands that range from tropical rainforests to bustling cities. Along the way, meet new friends to help you on your journey and encounter familiar faces from the Mushroom Kingdom like Peach and Bowser.
“Keep the ‘Brothership’ afloat and rely on Mario and Luigi’s bond to save the day by employing Bros. Moves to get past obstacles and powerful Bros. Attacks to claim victory in a dynamic twist on turn-based combat.”
