Nintendo Unveils Mario & Luigi: Brothership RPG for Switch in Summer Direct
Nintendo has made a splash with its recent announcement during the Summer Game Fest-like Direct event, revealing a long-awaited addition to the Mario & Luigi series. The game, titled Mario & Luigi: Brothership, promises players an engaging RPG experience as the famed brothers embark on a seafaring adventure away from the familiar Mushroom Kingdom.
It has been nearly a decade since the last original installment of the series, developed by AlphaDream, who regrettably closed their doors in 2019. This news has garnered immense excitement from fans of the iconic duo, especially following recent Mario hits like Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury and the celebrated Super Mario Odyssey.
The Mario & Luigi franchise’s revival on the Nintendo Switch is set for a November 7 release this year. As players anticipate a nostalgic journey, questions linger regarding the innovative ‘Bros moves’ and game mechanics implemented in Brothership.
Following the success of Super Mario 3D All-Stars and the Switch‘s Pro debut, the upcoming release of Super Mario Bros. Wonder adds to the excitement surrounding Nintendo’s game lineup. Major publications like Polygon and Game Informer have been buzzing with discussions about the future of the gaming giant.
