The sequel to the critically acclaimed Mario and Rabbids Kingdom title for the Nintendo Switch is setting a sequel and will be headed to the system sometime next year. That’s right friends, Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope will be headed to Switch owners in 2022. Ubisoft shared this news (although it was leaked by Nintendo) during today’s E3 2021 press conference. The game looks as colorful as ever and I cannot wait to hear more about the title. The original Mario + Rabbids game sold very well so a sequel is much deserved. Here is what Ubisoft had to say regarding this exciting announcement:

Team up with Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Luigi, and their friends on a galactic journey to defeat a malevolent entity and save your Spark companions. Explore planets throughout the galaxy as you uncover mysterious secrets and compelling quests!?
Build your dream team with three heroes from an eclectic roster of nine.Take down all new bosses, along with some familiar enemies throughout the galaxy. Rescue the adorable Sparks throughout the galaxy, who provide distinct powers that will help you in battle. Unleash your heroes? skills but be strategic as you dash your enemies, team jump on your allies, and hide behind covers.

The trailer (which you can see below) looks absolutely beautiful and I am thrilled that this game is on its way. It just looks like pure joy; I lOVE the color palette and art direction….. It’s just SOO...
