The game is phenomenal, challenging and rewarding tactical combat, fantastic art and animation and plenty of customization, upgrading and meaningful decision making throughout an all rounder adventure. 100% recommended
Love the game but some of the later levels are so confusing, the areas look so similar it's difficult to find some of the right paths but it's an amazing game.
@@biondigiacomo7176 the hell does your opinion on another game have to do with their excitement to play this game? Could you have any bigger loser energy?
@@magonzo7 I'm not sure what their top 5 is but mine would be: 1: TLOZ Tears of The Kingdom 2: Super Mario Odyssey 3: TLOZ Breath of The Wild 4: Sparks of Hope 5: Luigi's Mansion 3 If they released Mario & Luigi Dream Team on switch then that would be Number 1
Not sure if missed this but the biggest sell that barely any other tactics or rpg has, is that your bench characters also rank up when your starters do.... which allow you to swap characters as needed without swapping in a low level characters who's skill you need for a particular battle. Does this game include this feature?
Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope is an Awesome game! Very proud to be part of this great adventure together with Ubisoft! Thank you to all the people that made real this dream project!
Sparks of hope feels easier than the first one. Kingdom Battle is unforgiving at times. Sparks has wider gameplay mechanics, but feels easier overall. Anyway, both are excellent gmes
Too bad Ubisoft are not being rewarded for their efforts as the game got high ratings but generated dismal sales. Now its destined to become the most underrated game in history, making it Ubisoft's version of "Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future", a short lived interactive Science Fiction series from the 1980s which also received great reviews, but the ratings and toy sales were so terrible that Mattel and Landmark Entertainment were forced to cancel future seasons of this series and letting the bad guys win in the process.
@@fimy3268 Yeah and it's pretty expensive (90 dollars x3x'''). And the DLCs don't come out until next year and then some. Basically gotta invest a little to get the game and all the extras.
Not only is Mario voiced by Charles Martinet, Sparks of Hope was the LAST game he was in before passing the torch onto Kevin Afghani for Super Mario Wonder!
@@DIEFORME173 yeah to you its mid Dumbass doesn't mean to everyone on earth it's mid. Plus there's no way that Bayonetta 3 sells more than Splatoon 3 it's the best-selling game of 2022 and it's not even been out for that long.

Picked this up today for AU$27 - worth every single cent. The game is fun, cheeky and rewarding with a surprisingly deep, turn-based combat system. Recommend 10/10!
The game does not have any post game content. It is easy to 90% a world before moving to the next one. The level cap is too easy to reach and doesn’t mean anything.
Watched Kingdom Battle just to check this one's playthrough later. I'm a bit stumped by the fact Rayman is nowhere to be seen and instead there's some sort of… emo rabbid thingy in the menus. Must be a glitch.
Kirby Forgotten Land, Mario Strikers Battle League, Pokémon Arceus, Xenoblades 3, Fire Emblem Three Hopes, Splatoon 3, Triangle Strategy, & Nintendo Switch Sports all came out this year. Bayonetta 3 and Pokémon Skarlet/Violet are still on the way.

What $15 at that point if you love the game get the dlc
It's better than Wonder for $60 and takes 3 -4x the time to complete.
@@someoneout-there2165I don’t like this game tbf just something about it
This game is absolutely unreal!! The gameplay is so clean. Better layout, and you can move freely. Top 5 switch game.
Curious what your top five are?

How is the co-op split screen play?
I’m surprised how great this game looks , but knowing Ubisoft , they’re gonna release a complete version of this game down the line with dlc for $20
When Ubisoft is more consumer friendly then Nintendo.
Nope. For once its 60$+
There is a complete edition, the gold edition. It gives you access to each dlc as they release, same as they did with Kingdom battle
@@fimy3268 Yeah and it's pretty expensive (90 dollars x3x'''). And the DLCs don't come out until next year and then some. Basically gotta invest a little to get the game and all the extras.
And right now you are absolutely right 👍

THIS is the game?
You can just emulate a switch and if you're not against piracy the games are free..

is there no multiplayer anymore or did they just not mention it at all?

First game was awesome,pre ordered already!
Loved the first game, can't wait for this.
Switch can have this quality of graphics yet we get future Pokemon running on 2 pixels
most Pokémon games have terrible visuals have you seen the new detective Pikachu it looks so bad
Very disappointed the game does not have co-op content. It was great on previous game.
There’s allegedly three waves of DLC planned… no idea what it will include, but save a few sparks of hope that multiplayer makes a return.
Damn this looks way beter than kingdom battle. This is has to be the game of the year
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Looking forward to digital release!
Such a silly nonsensical idea, yet it plays like a charm. Can't wait!
One of the reasons you want this game because Rosalina is your waifu and you want to rescue her. Don't lie.
If she was playable that would be my reason, but she ain’t so I’m here for the combat system, call me a liar but like, c’mon it looks cool

"Causes the Switch to chug a bit". Bro it's a SoC device.
Can't wait for this and Advanced War Reboot
It’s currently $30 on GameStop 12/28/22
The title is most likely reference to Ned Sparks and Bob Hope.
You should also summarize the negatives when you give a verdict.
He just called Peach "peak" btw
Lol
Hopefully we get an upgraded Switch next year to help with the performance issues.
"and don't worry, he's voice by Charles Martinet and not Chris Pratt" Ooof. Solid Review.
Can u play 2 players during the campaign as well
Negative
my guy sound like a man version of siri
The game does not have any post game content.
It is easy to 90% a world before moving to the next one.
The level cap is too easy to reach and doesn’t mean anything.
I'll be bringing Switch content to my channel very soon. Until then there are some other sorts of vids there...hehe
Wait you can turn off the character ability animations??
Yes. It got annoying after awhile even with skipping them
Game looks really fun.
How many hours does it take to beat the game?
9. Don’t know why no one post the review score like always.
Watched Kingdom Battle just to check this one's playthrough later. I'm a bit stumped by the fact Rayman is nowhere to be seen and instead there's some sort of… emo rabbid thingy in the menus. Must be a glitch.
We just reviewed the game on our channel and - as Paper Mario fans - it’s the best Mario RPG to come out in recent years :-)
Damn this looking like a top 10 switch game..."Of All Time"
Nintendo's two best games are made by Ubisoft.
9??? Heck it's so rare to ign to put a 9!
Amazing game graphics are insane

nice, so Mario can use Final Fantasy 7 materia.

Does this game rate battles like kingdom battle did
No it doesnt grade you for every fight like kingdom battle did probably because theres fights you can do outside of missions
Absolutely hyped! 😁💪
Score: 7
