'''''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''''' is a [[Genre#Turn-based tactics|turn-based tactical]] title for the [[Nintendo Switch]] and a cross-over between the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise and [[Ubisoft]]{{'}}s ''[[raywiki:Rabbids (series)|Rabbids]]'' series, being the first in the [[Mario + Rabbids (series)|''Mario + Rabbids'' series]] of games. It is the first tactics game in the ''Super Mario'' franchise, and it also incorporates some [[Genre#Role-playing|role-playing]] elements. The game sees [[Mario]] and his friends trying to restore order in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] after [[Rabbid]]s invade and fuse it with their own world using a powerful merging device. In overworld sections, the player takes control of [[Beep-0]], a robotic assistant who guides characters in tow and can perform various actions to solve puzzles and find secrets. Throughout their journey, the heroes frequently engage in turn-based battles with enemy Rabbids during which they must complete objectives such as defeating a number of enemies or escorting a supporting character to a certain spot. Each character's abilities in battle can be customized and upgraded via a skill tree.

The game presents a single-player story mode, which involves the above, and a local co-operative mode with separate stages in which multiple human players can face off against enemy Rabbids. A Versus mode was added through an update, enabling players to battle each other locally. The game also offers paid add-on content with new weapons, challenges, and a [[Donkey Kong Adventure|story expansion]] focusing on [[Donkey Kong]].

Ubisoft published the game for most territories (the Americas, EMEA, Oceania, Southeast Asia) in August 2017, whilst Nintendo themselves published the game for Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan in January 2018, although Ubisoft would later re-publish the game digitally for Hong Kong in June 2018. Ubisoft's Chinese partner, Bihan Internet Technology, would eventually publish the game for mainland China in February 2022.

A sequel, ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'', was released on October 20, 2022 in most territories.

The [[Rabbid]]s end up with their [[Time Washing Machine]] in the laboratory of a [[Genius Girl|''Super Mario'' fan]] who is perfecting, along with her robot assistant [[Beep-0]], a visor able to fuse two objects into one, called the [[SupaMerge]]. [[Spawny|One Rabbid]] finds said visor and uses it to create [[Rabbid Peach]], [[Rabbid Mario]], and other Rabbids fused with objects. It also causes the Time Washing Machine to malfunction, sending Beep-0 and the Rabbids to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].

Meanwhile, [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Toad]], and [[Princess Peach]] are inaugurating a new statue of Peach while an audience of [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s (including [[Toadette]]) watches. Suddenly, a vortex is formed and sucks Mario and the others in.

In midair over the [[Ancient Gardens]], Beep-0 gains rabbit ears and the outline of two rabbit's teeth on the front. The Rabbid with the SupaMerge fuses with the headset, causing it to be stuck to him. Mario later saves Beep-0 from being crushed by the Time Washing Machine. Upon landing, they soon encounter Rabbid Peach and [[Rabbid Luigi]], who join Mario's team and help them fight off various [[Ziggy|Garden Ziggies]], thanks to weapons attached to a message sent by a mysterious ''F.B.'' As they travel, they get a glimpse of the vortex, later referred to as the [[Megabug]].

Soon after, Mario's group find Luigi and the Rabbid with the SupaMerge headset. Luigi and the SupaMerge Rabbid are both scared by a [[Piranha Plant]] with which a Rabbid is playing. Due to the fear, the SupaMerge Rabbid ends up fusing the other Rabbid with the Piranha Plant, creating the [[Pirabbid Plant]]. Mario's team successfully defeats the Plant and restore both the Piranha Plant and the Rabbid that was fused with it to their original selves. Seeing this, Luigi joins their team. Meanwhile, Beep-0 notices that the Megabug has grown in size.

[[Bowser Jr.]] has observed what happened with the Pirabbid Plant and, when Mario's team find the SupaMerge Rabbid and scare him, takes the chance to befriend him, naming him [[Spawny]]. With the intent of using Spawny's powers to take over the Mushroom Kingdom while [[Bowser|his father]] is on vacation, Junior flies away with Spawny on his [[Junior Clown Car]], while Mario's team must face a giant, ape-like Rabbid resembling [[Donkey Kong]], named [[Rabbid Kong]]. They defeat Rabbid Kong, causing him to fall off of the platform they are standing on.

Mario's team then venture to [[Sherbet Desert]], where thanks to a message from F.B. they discover that the Megabug is growing with every enemy Rabbid defeated. They also find Rabbid Mario frozen in an ice cube. They take him with them, and place the cube in a door in the hopes of freeing him. Said door opens, and they soon encounter Bowser Jr. with Spawny again. Bowser Jr. has Spawny look at Mario's team, which agitates the Rabbid, activating the SupaMerge's powers. Just before it activates, Bowser Jr. turns Spawny away, causing him to create [[Blizzy]] and [[Sandy]], who proceed to attack Mario's team. Mario's team defeat both of them and save Rabbid Mario, who joins them. At the end of the desert, Mario's team face off against the [[Icicle Golem]], who freezes them. However, Princess Peach appears and saves them, joining Mario's team in their fight against the monster. They eventually prevail.

Mario's team then go to [[Spooky Trails]]. They are directed to find two Relics of Goodness, a gramophone and a Boo-shaped balloon, under the instruction of a mysterious third party who wants them to wake up a being named "Tom Phan" who they claim has the power to defeat Bowser Jr. After finding the relics, they discover through a message from the mysterious helper that they need a full moon. While finding a way to bring the full moon back, they come across [[Calavera]], who is holding [[Rabbid Yoshi]] hostage. Mario's team defeat Calavera and are subsequently joined by Rabbid Yoshi. They then find a clock tower and manipulate the clock to get the full moon back. The helper gives them an invitation to cross the now opened Moon Gate. They later find out that it is actually Bowser Jr. himself, who confronts them in a theater. Bowser Jr. scares Spawny, causing him to fuse a Rabbid with the Relics of Goodness to create the [[Phantom (boss)|Phantom]]. The Phantom sings a [[Phantom of the Bwahpera|song]] and battles Mario's group, but is defeated.

[[File:MarioRabbids story04.png|thumb|upright=1.1|The Megabug flies towards the heroes.]]
Later, they go to the [[Lava Pit (Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle)|Lava Pit]], a volcano which has been transformed into a factory by Bowser Jr.. Here, they battle Junior in his [[Mecha Jr.]] After this battle, Spawny seemingly falls to his doom as Bowser Jr. escapes. However, Spawny is saved by Yoshi, who subsequently joins Mario's team. It is only after this battle that Spawny seems regretful for all the trouble he has caused. After returning Spawny to safety, Mario's team attempt to leave via a crystal mine. However, Spawny is attracted to the Megabug which has grown strong enough to obtain a physical, phoenix-like form. The Megabug absorbs Spawny before heading in the direction of [[Bowser's Castle]]. Bowser Jr. returns to tell off Mario's team for allowing Spawny to get kidnapped and the Megabug to escape, noting that at least his father is still away. However, he gets a text message from his father, who has decided to return home early. Realizing that his father is in danger, Bowser Jr. flies off to Bowser's Castle while Mario's team chases after. On the way, they encounter two villainous Rabbids resembling [[Wario]] and [[Waluigi]], named [[Bwario]] and [[Bwaluigi]] respectively. They, as well as another villainous Rabbid called the [[Lava Queen]], battle and are defeated by Mario's group. Upon their arrival at Bowser's Castle, Bowser Jr. requests them to help [[Bowser]] return to his normal self, as he is barely conscious and near the Megabug. The latter fuses with Bowser, creating [[MegaDragonBowser]]. In this form, Bowser is defeated, freeing the Megabug that tries to attack Mario's team. Said team attacks the Megabug, destroying it and seemingly closing the rift while also freeing Spawny. Bowser Jr. takes Spawny back to the team and thanks them for what they have done, while also promising to be somewhat better. Fearing being chastised by his father, he tries to convince them to speak to Bowser on his behalf, but Mario's team return to [[Peach's Castle]] to tell that the threat is no more, while also inaugurating a new statue of Rabbid Peach. A delighted Rabbid Peach then takes a {{wp|selfie}} with the group. After this, Beep-0 sends a letter to his past self with weapons through the Time Washing Machine, revealing that F.B. is actually ''Future Beep-0''.

==Gameplay==
{{rewrite-expand|section=yes|Explain the basics of the turn-based combat and overworld exploration}}
The game is estimated to be composed of 30% exploration elements and 70% turn-based combat.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKFOuFaZz4Q&t=303s Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Interview with Davide Soliani. Retrieved April 9, 2024]</ref> There is also multiplayer, local co-op mode. The combat is weapon-based, with the weapons primarily resembling guns (notably the Blaster, Boomshot, Rumblebang, and Precision class-weapons), though they also resemble warhammers (Melee-class), rocket launchers (Rocket-class), rubber ducks (Grenaduck-class), yo-yos (Bworb-class), and deployable shuttles (Sentry-class).

The exploration aspect of the game is controlled by [[Beep-0]], a new character which serves as a helpful character which gives out tips and help. There are seven enemy archetypes, and one mid-boss and boss per world and four world environments. Some of the open world exploring involves puzzles.

==Heroes==
===Main Heroes===
The player may use a total of three characters on a team, with [[Mario]] and at least one [[Rabbid]] always required. These restrictions were made for balancing, as the development team felt some combinations of characters were too powerful.<ref>[https://twitter.com/DavideSoliani/status/909168995038896128 Davide Soliani on twitter]. Retrieved October 2, 2017</ref>

Each character uses two weapons: a primary weapon that can be used every turn and a secondary weapon that requires cooling down in-between turns, as well as two Techniques. One of the techniques is either a line-of-sight technique that allows the user to fire at targets while they move for the ''Super Mario'' characters or a shield with different properties for the Rabbids. The other technique gives a unique effect exclusive to each of the eight characters.

====Skill Trees====
:''To read the full list of skills and upgrades that can be purchased in the Skill Trees, see [[List of Skill Trees in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]].''
After gaining Power Orbs throughout the game it is possible to spend them to purchase various skill and upgrades for each character. The skills and upgrades are classified in four categories: <span style="color:orange">'''Movement'''</span>, <span style="color:red">'''Attack'''</span>, <span style="color:green">'''Technique'''</span> and <span style="color:blue">'''Other'''</span>. The upgrades and skills of each category can only be bought after a specific mandatory skill in said category has been bought, and the skills and upgrades in the <span style="color:blue">'''Other'''</span> category can only be bought after the three mandatory skills of the other categories have been bought, creating a tree-like structure of requirements and categorization known as ''Skill Tree''.

===Secondary Heroes===
These characters are playable in escort levels. They cannot attack enemies.

===Weapons===
{{main|List of weapons in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle}}
There are various weapons in the game, organized in thirteen categories: Blaster, Melee, Precision, Sentry, Rumblebang, Rocket, Boomshot, Grenaduck, Bworb, Boombow, Bwananarang, DK Ground Pound, and Barrel Bolt. Each character can equip both a primary and secondary weapon, both of which pertain to specific classes. The last four weapon classes are exclusive to the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC, and function similarly to Melee, Boomshot, and Grenaduck weapons; however, only the Bwananarang is a completely unique weapon.

The characters players can choose from not based on those used in the main campaign, however each character has [[List of Versus Mode sets in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle|three distinct sets]] based off of their ingame abilities.

==Glitches==
[[File:MRKB goomba glitch.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|An eyeless Goomba can be seen at the far left side of the image. (Taken during [[Remember the Bwahlamo]], the second co-op challenge of Ancient Gardens)]]
===Boo Companion===
There is a random glitch that makes [[Boo]]s companions of sorts. There is no specific method to make this glitch occur, but during the glitch, Boos will nit teleport the player's heroes to different locations during a battle, and they'll also appear in the player's victory screen after winning a battle. In addition, one or more Boos will follow the player out of battle; additionally, the Boos from the battlefield will still appear, and in specifically in [[Spooky Trails]]' secret chapter, the player will not be allowed to leave the area (unless they exit the game via the pause menu).

===Eyeless Goomba===
[[Goomba]]s that are stuck in honey are rendered eyeless if the camera is positioned so that they appear near the side of the screen.

===Infinite Mushrooms===
Normally, a Mushroom will permanently disappear after collection, even if the player initiates and then restarts a battle. However, if the player quits to the main menu while mid-chapter and then reloads their save file, the Mushroom will reappear. All party members will retain their HP from before the player quit, allowing them to collect the Mushroom again and heal further, effectively providing an infinite health restoration method.

===Random flickering object placement glitch===
Sometimes in [[Spooky Trails]] and [[Lava Pit (Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle)|Lava Pit]], random background objects will randomly flicker around to places they do not belong. Normally, this is a simple thing the game will fix quickly, but in other cases, the glitch will persist and start affecting things around the player, potentially causing coins on moving platforms to get stuck in the ground and similar things. Occasionally, a piece will start to blink over [[Beep-0]], eventually leading to an exception that crashes the game.

==Critical reception==
''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle'' has received generally positive reviews from professional critics. It received a score of 8 out of 10 from Russ Frushtick of Polygon. He said that the game "offer[s] up a legitimately challenging squad tactics experience without alienating the family-friendly ''Super Mario'' audience", but also stated that "it doesn't quite have the full layer of spit and polish of a [Nintendo developed] title".<ref>https://www.polygon.com/2017/8/28/16213294/mario-rabbids-kingdom-battle-review-nintendo-switch-ubisoft</ref> Dan Stapleton of IGN gave the game a 7.7 out of 10 (a "Good" rating). He praised the game's difficulty, animation, and "enemy variety", but criticized the rewards for completing puzzles and "the progression system".<ref>http://au.ign.com/articles/2017/08/28/mario-rabbids-kingdom-battle-review</ref> The game currently averages 85% on Metacritic based on 91 reviews.<ref>http://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/mario-+-rabbids-kingdom-battle</ref>

The game has been credited by {{wp|List of Ubisoft subsidiaries#Ubisoft Paris|Ubisoft Milan|Ubisoft Milan}} staff as a "game changer" for the studio as, following the game's critical and commercial success, the studio started receiving ten times more job applications than it had at any point of its history.<ref>Matthew Handrahan (September 29, 2017).

|3/5
|''The out-of-combat drudgery and late-game enemy design are probably the only negative things about Mario + Rabbids, but they end up casting a large shadow over the experience as a whole. That's not to say that the game should have just been some friendly cakewalk from start to finish--the game's got difficulty options that ensure that anyone should be able to get through the fights with enough persistence--but the way the game changes things up near the end makes the combat feel like a chore on any setting. It's an unfortunate shift that mars the final product quite a bit. This is still a wild ride with a handful of amazing moments, but the gameplay part of it needs more variety than it has, so the whole thing ends up coming back down to earth and feeling a little disappointing by the end.''

|''Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle exudes off-beat optimism that never dissolves. It's a consistent delight, no matter how challenging the road becomes, because Kingdom Battle's unique turn-based tactics system is in every way a pleasure to engage with. Coupled with the annoyingly infectious allure of Rabbids, and the always delightful, colorful world of the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is an implausibly engrossing formula that is positively challenging and endlessly charming.''

While it doesn't quite have the full layer of spit and polish of an in-house title, Ubisoft’s game comes damn close to capturing that Nintendo magic.''

|''Based on its colorful world, beautiful animation, and source material you might expect Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle to be "My first turn-based tactics game." But you're in for a surprise: even for XCOM vets some of its battles are challenging puzzles. Some of its tougher levels do devolve into a trial-and-error slog, but a good mix of enemies, objectives, and character abilities keep things interesting.''

|''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle's guts are impressive, but its main event feels like a [good] expansion for a fleshed-out strategy RPG that has more to offer than a great combat system. By the time it opens up halfway in and you really start to delve into the skill tree, it begs to be played. But until then both exploration and some battles feel like going through the motions in a "kinda sorta" tutorial way.''

[[Beep-0]] remarks that the Rabbid would be lucky to get to 125 meters unless he finds a [[Hammer]].
*''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'': On the title screen for the game's battle mode, there is an arcade machine with artwork that heavily parodies ''Mario Bros.'' with [[Rabbid Mario]] and [[Rabbid Luigi]] replacing their respective counterparts, [[Little bird|little bird]]s replacing the [[Shellcreeper]]s, [[Bee]]s (as seen in-game) replacing the [[Fighter Fly|Fighter Flies]], and mice replacing the [[Sidestepper]]s.
*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': The wallpaper in the laboratory in the introductory cutscene is a scene from this game.

*''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'': When the Rabbids' Time Washing Machine malfunctions in the introductory cutscene, sprites of [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[? Block]]s, and Mario taken from this game can be seen on the number displays.
*''[[Super Mario Land]]'': In bonus levels, the [[Blue Coin]]s make the same sounds as the coins in this game when collected.
*[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' series]]: [[DK Barrel]]s can be seen floating in the ocean as part of the background of World 1-7. The sound effect that plays when a [[Banana|banana bunch]] is collected in the original ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' can be heard as several bananas fall in front of [[Rabbid Kong]] at the beginning of his battle. Also, the bonus room theme from the first game, also known as  "Bonus Room Blitz", is remixed in the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC. This arrangement plays in bonus rooms. Weapons modeled after [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi]], [[Enguarde the Swordfish|Enguarde]], [[Expresso the Ostrich|Expresso]], [[Winky the Frog|Winky]], and [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] appear in the same DLC, and the description for the Winky-based weapon mentions [[Monkey Mines]].

*''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'': Luigi's primary weapons are all shaped like vacuum cleaners as a reference to the [[Poltergust 3000]]. Also, several of Luigi's voice clips from this game are reused.
*''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'': A poster featuring artwork from this game appears in the introductory cutscene.
*''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'': A tube of honey with a [[Bee Mushroom]] design on it appears in World 1-1 and near Peach's castle.

==Trivia==
*''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle'' was not the first attempt by Ubisoft to crossover Mario with the Rabbids: in 2010, Ubisoft Paris had pitched a [[List of unreleased media#Super Mario/Rabbids crossover adventure game|Mario/Rabbids crossover adventure game]] for the [[Wii]], which ended up being rejected by Nintendo.<ref>Liam Robertson (June 12, 2017). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21oZewbY0j4 Mario + Rabbids: The Lost Adventure Game Concept]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved February 14, 2018</ref>
*In the opening sequence, [[Genius Girl]] opens a magazine, which shows herself in a posture referencing Pagan Min, the main antagonist of Ubisoft's ''{{wp|Far Cry 4}}'', which is taken from that game's box art.
*This is the first ''Super Mario'' game that has been mainly developed by an Italian company.
*The song that was used for the game's E3 trailers is "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0q9a5QS6WQ It's All for Rock N' Roll]" by {{wp|Airbourne (band)|Airbourne}}.
