Mystery Team Revealed for Mario & Luigi: Brothership

Jun 23, 2024 11:21 AM

Nintendo recently unveiled Mario & Luigi: Brothership, marking a significant return for the beloved RPG series after nearly nine years. However, the original developers, AlphaDream, shut down in 2019 due to bankruptcy, leaving fans curious about who is behind this new installment. Nintendo has kept details vague, only disclosing that some original developers are involved. In recent years, Nintendo has often chosen to reveal information about development teams only in the game credits upon release. Mario & Luigi: Brothership is set to release on November 7 this year, stirring excitement among fans eager to see the franchise's revival.

Who is developing Mario & Luigi: Brothership after AlphaDream's closure?

Nintendo has only stated that some original developers from the Mario & Luigi series are involved, without specifying further details. The exact development team will be revealed in the game credits upon release.

The Mario & Luigi series, known for its engaging RPG mechanics and humorous storytelling, first started with "Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga" on the Game Boy Advance. The franchise has been a favorite for blending traditional RPG elements with unique dual-character gameplay, where players control both Mario and Luigi. AlphaDream’s bankruptcy in 2019 had left the future of the series in question, making this announcement particularly significant for long-time fans.

It's awesome to see the Mario & Luigi series making a comeback after such a long hiatus I'm curious to see how the new team, presumably with some OG developers, captures the charm and humor that made the original games so beloved.
