Next Level Games and Nintendo Announce Mario Strikers: Battle League
/ Stephen CraneIt’s been less than three years since Next Level Games released Luigi’s Mansion 3 but they are at it again, with a sequel to one of its earlier games, Mario Strikers: Battle League. The game is expected to hit Nintendo Switch later this year on June 10th.
Introducing Strike, a 5-on-5, soccer-like sport with no rules—do whatever it takes to win! Get gritty and try to score the most goals by tackling enemies, using items, and pulling off score-boosting special shots. Super Mario series mainstays like Peach, Toad, and Yoshi put their cleats (and stats) to the pitch and will stop at nothing to score. Customize your characters with gear that can augment their stats and appearance. Take the carnage online or pass the ball to players locally—just look out for the electric fence.
