About The Game
Mario Strikers: Battle League is the latest installment in the Mario Strikers series. This game came to the Nintendo Switch just a couple of months ago and has been a fan favorite. The game has already received two free updates, adding its two final DLC characters in the last one.
Time to prepare for a striker, a five-on-five sport kind of like football!
Players will aim for the goals by dribbling and passing to teammates but also using tackles, items, and crushing special shots as well. However, if you spot an orb on the pitch, you better grab it and charge it up while your opponents are distracted to unleash Hyper Strike, a special shot that can earn you two goals in one!
