We were right there laughing along with the rest of the internet when we first saw those leaked promotional images of Ubisoft’s annoying Rabbid mascots dressed up as iconic Mario characters. But then Ubisoft showed the game itself, and… wait, a Mario- inspired take on XCOM tactics? One that looks like a first- party Nintendo game thanks to Nintendo’s developers lending a hand with production?

And its digestible, 5- 1. Switch. A Good Match For: Anyone waiting for a good Switch strategy game, XCOM fans, people who think they might like XCOM but are put off by how complicated it seems.

Not A Good Match For: Those who don’t want to play Switch games with headphones, those who get easily frustrated. Read our impressions of the PC version.
