Harness the power of dream Luigi in Mario & Luigi Dream Team Bros. on 12th July (Europe)
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Make a date with the famous brothers in a new adventure – from the mysterious Pi’illo Island to the deepest recesses of Luigi’s dreams!
4th June 2013 – With great success in countless quests down the years, it’s as if the powerful pairing of Mario and Luigi can defeat enemies in their sleep. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros., released on 12th July for the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles, the brothers put such a theory to the test in a new adventure set on both an island near the realm of the Mushroom Kingdom, and within the depths of Luigi’s own dreams!
In this fourth instalment of the popular RPG series Mario & Luigi, the story opens with Princess Peach and her staff, plus brothers Mario and Luigi in tow, being invited for a sightseeing trip to the mysterious Pi’illo Island by its equally mysterious proprietor, Dr Snoozemore. But after an initially hospitable welcoming to the island – albeit with Dr Snoozemore noticeably absent – things take a turn for the worse when Princess Peach is kidnapped and pulled into a Dream World by a new enemy in the series, the ghostly bat king Antasma.
