Julian Gollop, creator of the strategy franchise X-COM, nearly could have worked on Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. Creative director Davide Soliani had interest in bringing Gollop on board during the early stages of development.

In an interview with PCGamesN, Gollop stated:

“The creative director Davide Soliani is a friend of mine from Ubisoft. When I was at Ubisoft Sofia he was, and still is, working for Ubisoft Milan and I visited him a couple of times. We had conversations about project ideas… he was a fan of my previous games, like Laser Squad [Nemesis] and stuff like that, and he was really into his strategy and turn-based ideas from the beginning.”

Three years or so ago, Soliani gave Gollop a call and asked if he wanted to work on a project with him. It never worked out because Gollop had just left Ubisoft to start working on Chaos Reborn, and he wasn’t aware that it was Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. Gollop may have ended up working on the Switch title had he remained with Ubisoft.

Mad Mimic Interactive has announced that the 2D castle defense game No Heroes Here is coming to Switch.

No Heroes Here features a single-player mode, co-op support with up to four players, and crafting and platform elements. Below is a quick rundown of the premise:

The Kingdom of Noobland is at war and its heroes are gone. With the death of the last hero, it’s up to the non-heroes to save the Kingdom! Teamwork is key as players must cooperate to craft ammunition, load cannons, and fire upon hordes of enemies to defend castles all across the land. The frantic co-op play is the kind of experience that either builds friendships or crushes them!

No Heroes Here is coming to Switch in Q1 2018. View a trailer for the game below.
