Mario + Rabbids couldn’t have gone better for Ubisoft… well, aside from the initial leaks. Once the game was actually revealed at E3, it was given a proper chance, and what was initially shown seemed very promising. The final product ultimately delivered.
Not only has Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle been well received by both critics and players, but it has also sold very well. It’s thanks to all of the success that Ubisoft Milan has a bright future ahead.

Other elements missing from the Switch version of FIFA 18 compared to its console counterparts can be found here.
