Mario Strikers: Battle League post-launch updates confirmed, including new characters
Nintendo has confirmed that Mario Strikers: Battle League will be receiving new updates after launch. As part of this, fans can look forward to additional characters. Specifics haven’t been shared just yet though, but we know that the updates will be entirely free.
Providing updates after release is a familiar move for Nintendo, especially when it comes to sports games on Switch. With Mario Tennis Aces for example, the game added Koopa Troopa, Blooper, Diddy Kong, Birdo, Shy Guy, Petey Piranha, Luma, Boom Boom, Pauline, Kamek, Dry Bones, Fire Piranha Plant, and Dry Bowser after launch. Meanwhile, we saw Toadette, Ninji, Koopa Troopa, Wiggler, and Shy Guy in Mario Golf: Super Rush after release.
Fans have been pretty vocal about the roster in Mario Strikers: Battle League, including their desire to see characters such as Daisy. With the updates coming after the game’s debut, these wishes will be fulfilled.
Mario Strikers: Battle League will arrive for Switch on June 10, and we’ll let you know about the updates and new characters to follow. A First Kick demo was just announced – you can learn more about it here.
