Ubisoft’s strategy game Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle will be getting free DLC tomorrow, December 8th. The update will come with a new Versus mode, a much-wanted co-op versus battle mode putting friends against each other just like in the story mode. The only downside to this is that this mode is couch co-op only.
The mode is essentially versus challenges where players get to hand-pick their three-hero squads and use every attack and technique available to them to claim victory across small, surprise-filled maps. However, in this mode, each player is only allowed three available actions per turn. This strategically limits the player in ways that even the main story was unable to capture. Players can spend all their time moving Luigi into a prime spot, or setting Yoshi up for a sweet combo move. The choice is fully dependant on the player and their ability to strategize.
The combatants are evenly matched, but you have the choice of selecting beefy stats or an all vampiric loadout. And yes, you can pick an all-Rabbid or all-Mushroom Kingdom team. Player freedom in game length also exists, there are short sessions, just right sessions, and long matchups. The choices are endless, we cannot wait to jump into the mode when it available.
