Mario & Luigi: Brothership Showcases Signature Humor Ahead of Nintendo Switch Launch

With anticipation reaching a crescendo, Nintendo is poised to release Mario & Luigi: Brothership on the Nintendo Switch this November 7, 2024.

As one of the most beloved RPG franchises in the company's storied history, the Mario & Luigi series has consistently delivered on charm, humor, and inventive gameplay mechanics, cementing its place among Nintendo's most popular titles.

Brothership marks the highly awaited return of Mario and Luigi in their first full-featured console adventure, offering fans a fresh journey packed with the signature slapstick humor and dynamic duo-powered moves that have become hallmarks of the series. In the days leading up to launch, Nintendo has ramped up its promotional efforts to showcase what longtime fans can expect from this new installment.

Most recently, a new short video titled 'UFO Spin' was released on Nintendo’s official channels.

While the short does not include actual gameplay footage, it reinforces that the hallmark humor is alive and well in Brothership, continuing the legacy of the Mario & Luigi franchise. According to Nintendo, Mario & Luigi: Brothership represents a significant milestone as the series’ debut on the Nintendo Switch.

A recent review described Brothership as "easily the best Mario & Luigi RPG yet," highlighting its refined mechanics, engaging story, and faithfully recreated humor.

These accolades set high expectations for the title, which many see as a rejuvenation for classic Nintendo role-playing games on modern hardware. Mario & Luigi: Brothership will be available worldwide via the Nintendo eShop and at retail.

With its launch, Nintendo continues to demonstrate its commitment to reviving iconic series and introducing cherished classics to new generations of Switch owners.
