Ubisoft's Mario mash-up gives classic character a new spin

Mario recognises that his world has become overrun with "Rabbids" and makes it his goal to eliminate the chaos with his new friends Rabbid Peach and Rabbid Luigi.

Super Mario is by far the most famous face in the world of video games, and therefore also a priceless brand for his creator, Nintendo. 

No wonder, then, that the Japanese video games company only rarely lets other developers get their hands on Mario. But Nintendo has made an exception with Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle for Nintendo Switch, allowing Ubisoft to not only develop a Mario game, but to mash up the plumber's world with its own Raving Rabbids brand.
