Some Nintendo fans got an unexpected surprise this week when their pre-ordered copy of Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope arrived in the mail days ahead of the game’s official launch of October 20th. The follow-up to 2017's Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope features some exciting new additions to the mascot-based tactical strategy game. Excitement for the game’s release reached new highs after a Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope cinematic launch trailer premiered earlier this month.

The original Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was a 2017 turn-based tactical strategy game developed by Ubisoft that brought together characters from the Mario franchise and Ubisoft’s own mischievous Rabbids. Taking gameplay cues from turn-based classics, the Mario + Rabbids games give players control of characters from the Super Mario Bros. and Rabbids franchises as they engage in tactical battles using a variety of whimsical weapons and abilities. Despite this seemingly bizarre premise, the game won over both critics and fans with its light-hearted, comedic tone and solid tactical gameplay. Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope carries over the original’s tight gameplay while adding new characters, locations, weapons, and a story rumored to feature an evil version of Rosalina from Super Mario Galaxy.
