Mario is a character who is a jack of many trades. Besides his adventures in the various platform games, he likes some other activities. With Mario Strikers: Battle League Football, he will be playing soccer again.
Mario Strikers: Battle League Football is not the first time Mario is going to play soccer. Once he started that career on the GameCube and was followed up on the Nintendo Wii. But now he gets to play soccer on the Nintendo Switch as well.
Mario Strikers: Battle League Football to the Nintendo Switch
Yesterday during the Nintendo Direct, Mario Strikers: Battle League Football was announced. In this soccer game, you play teams of five against five. In doing so, should you be someone who likes to play with other gamers, it’s good to know that you can play with as many as eight players simultaneously on one system. Then you do it with four players in a team. It is also possible to start playing the game online. There it is possible to join a club. That sounds a bit like a guild and has the space for 20 players. Check out the trailer of the game below.
In terms of gameplay, Mario Strikers: Battle League Football is obviously a bit different from the average soccer game. Besides the difference in the size of the team, it is especially different in terms of gameplay. You can easily kick away your opponents to conquer the ball. Furthermore, you have various powerups to use. It is also possible to equip your characters with certain equipment prior to the match. This allows you to influence the statistics of your players.
