Mario’s Voyage Beyond the Mushroom Kingdom

Your favorite mustachioed duo, Mario and Luigi, are back with “Mario & Luigi: Brothership,” the latest chapter in their legendary saga

Once upon a time in the ever-vibrant Mushroom Kingdom, our favorite mustachioed duo, Mario and Luigi, found themselves yearning for a fresh escapade. After countless rescues of Princess Peach and thwarting Bowser’s schemes, they craved something more… nautical. Enter “Mario & Luigi: Brothership,” the latest chapter in their legendary saga, setting sail on the Nintendo Switch on November 7, 2024.

In this seafaring adventure, Mario and Luigi embark on a quest across the fragmented world of Concordia. The once-unified land has splintered into isolated islands following the mysterious demise of the Uni-Tree. Aboard the ingenious Shipshape Island—a vessel that’s part ship, part island—the brothers aim to reconnect these lands and restore harmony. Along the way, they encounter quirky new allies like Connie and the not-a-pig-but-totally-looks-like-one Snoutlet, adding layers of charm and humor to their journey.

Gameplay: Classic Nostalgia with a Twist

“Brothership” retains the series’ signature turn-based combat, demanding precise timing for attacks and defenses. Players control both Mario and Luigi, leveraging their unique abilities to solve environmental puzzles and execute powerful Bros. Attacks. New mechanics, such as “Luigi Logic,” where Luigi devises unconventional solutions to challenges, and “Battle Plugs,” customizable power-ups that enhance combat strategies, infuse fresh excitement into the gameplay.
