Release Date: November 7, 2024
The sixth installment of a series launched in 2003. Mario & Luigi: Brothership combines mechanics from RPG and arcade games. The titular brothers explore the vast world of Concordia, co-operating with each other, performing quests and completing turn-based battles.
Mario & Luigi: Brothership is the sixth main part of the series of games with RPG and arcade elements, launched in 2003. Unlike previous installments of the series, created by the AlphaDream studio that existed from 2000-2019, this game was developed directly by Nintendo, the company overseeing the brand.
As the title suggests, the main characters of Mario & Luigi Brothership are the brothers Mario and Luigi. The protagonists find themselves on a piece of land known as Shipshape, which is partly a ship and partly an island, from where they go on a journey around the vast world of Concordia. Our heroes experience various adventures and meet both old acquaintances from the Mushroom Kingdom, like Peach or Bowser, as well as completely new characters, led by Connie and Snoutlet.
In Mario & Luigi Brothershipwe watch events from various angles. The adventure leads us through colorful locations, among which we will find tropical forests and bustling cities, and its driving force are the quests assigned to us by the characters we meet along the way.
While completing subsequent missions and rushing around Concordia, Mario and Luigi must constantly cooperate. Only by working together can they solve environmental puzzles, as well as face platform challenges requiring agility and reflexes.
They also regularly face opponents on their way. Although the combat system implemented in the game is turn-based, it is diversified by action elements. If we want to perform a powerful attack or dodge, we have to press specific buttons at a specific moment.
The graphic design of Mario & Luigi Brothership is maintained in a cartoon style.

RPG Fan: 66 / 100 by Tim Rattray
Die-hard fans of Mario RPGs have a lot of content to sink their teeth into with Mario & Luigi: Brothership, but it’s a hard sell to anyone else.
Wccftech: 7.5 / 10 by Nathan Birch
Mario & Luigi: Brothership brings back one of the plumbers’ more underappreciated series, offering plenty of visual pizazz, an impressive array of inventive maps, and a solid amount of RPG depth. It’s not a perfect relaunch, as Brothership’s writing lacks the snap of the best entries in the series and some unfortunate padding results in a game that arguably overstays its welcome, but overall, those still on board the aging Good Ship Switch ought to find this a charming-enough twilight cruise.
COGconnected: 75 / 100 by James Paley
This game suffers when subjected to a reviewer’s brutal pacing. Maybe if I hadn’t been racing towards the finish line, the endless tiny loading screens wouldn’t have bothered me as much. I was also forced to discard a lot of the side content. It’s not super compelling stuff, but the act of completing it can be pretty relaxing. Searching for Sprite Bulbs scratches that completionist itch in a big way. Plus, the game is beautiful and the battles are a lot of fun. I still wish the puzzles weren’t so frustrating for me. But again, they benefit from more patience than I could spare. My momentum while playing felt wobbly and uneven, but this is still a well-crafted game. Perhaps your time (if you can offer more of it than me) will be well-spent playing Mario & Luigi: Brothership.
