If you haven’t played the Mario + Rabbids series, Best Buy has a tremendous deal available today. Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope’s Cosmic Edition is on sale for only $28. This is the lowest price yet for the wonderful sequel, and the deal is even sweeter because this particular edition also comes with a voucher to download Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle from the Switch eShop. This deal is only available today (February 14), and we wouldn’t be surprised to see it sell out.
If you’re unfamiliar with the game, Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope is a quirky strategy game that features a mashup of characters from the Nintendo and Ubisoft universes. You’ll take part in strategic, turn-based battles as you combat Cursa and her evil army in an attempt to save the galaxy.
Sparks of Hope improves on the formula introduced in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, which is certainly worth playing as well.
Our Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope review gave it a 9/10. “Put simply, Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope is an absolute delight. This is a combination that shouldn’t work and yet it more than works–it excels,” wrote critic Steve Watts. “Ubisoft loves and respects these characters, and has now shown definitively that even something as familiar and comfortable as Mario is still capable of surprising us over and over again.”
