Ubisoft published a new Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle video today that delves into the story of Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. Associate producer Cristina Nava, narrative designer Andrea Babich, art director Mauro Perini, and creative director Davide Soliani all speak. Watch the full video below.

Digital Foundry published yet another technical analysis today. With Rayman Legends Definitive Edition releasing on Switch today, the outlet has taken a look at how the game performs. There are some surprising finds here.

To begin, Rayman Legends Definitive Edition runs at 1080p while docked. It mostly runs at 60 frames per second, but a few dips may pop up occasionally. Strangely, the frame rate issues seem to be sorted out after you’ve died once in a level.

Yesterday, Ubisoft held a special stream for Rayman Legends Definitive Edition. Finn Wolfhard from the Netflix show Stranger Things was brought in to try the game. Watch the full recording below.

Digital Foundry is back in action with a new technical analysis. In its latest video, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle gets the spotlight.

One aspect Digital Foundry brings up is resolution. When docked, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle runs at 900p. The resolution drops to 600p when playing in portable mode. However, this is masked by good implementation of anti-aliasing, so in handheld more in particular, the resolution drop isn’t really noticeable. Smooth edges and depth of field also help.

GameXplain released a new ten-minute video highlighting ten minutes of Rayman Legends Definitive Edition on Switch. You can watch the gameplay below.

The game releases on September 12.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a crazy concept in its premise, yet Nintendo ended up signing off on the project. Creative director Davide Soliani told IGN that the company is actually “quite open-minded” to new ideas. You just need to come up with a concept that can justify its existence.

As many of you know, Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto didn’t want Ubisoft to create a platformer. Instead, he wanted them to come up with their own concept. Ubisoft ran wild with the challenge, and created a turn-based strategy game and gave guns to Mario and the rest of the gang.

If you’ve purchased Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, you may have noticed that an update is already available. Ubisoft did indeed prepare a day one update for the game.

Those curious about what the update does can read up on the full patch notes below. Ubisoft made a number of improvements and changes to the game, some of which are more significant than others.
