Since this thread just got a bump, might as well post some rumors by Emily Rogers about that Rabbids game:
Question: Wait, are the rumors about a Rabbids x Mario crossover actually true?
As I wrote in a previous blog post, the official title is “Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle”. The aesthetics and art style remind me a tiny bit of Super Mario 3D World. It has colorful graphics, and it has humor that you wouldn’t typically see in a traditional Mario game.
Question: Were you joking on Twitter when you said Princess Peach has a gun in the heavily rumored Rabbids game?
They’re not realistic guns, they don’t shoot bullets. They are sci-fi cartoonish guns that shoot lasers, energy beams, and things of that nature. Characters can even have arm cannons ala Mega Man/Metroid. The game isn’t trying to be edgy like Shadow the Hedgehog. It’s meant to be super wacky in a cartoonish Looney-Tunes sort of way.
As I mentioned yesterday, the art style and aesthetics are similar to Super Mario 3D World but more detailed.
Question: Can you give us more info on the Rabbids game?
I’ll throw you guys one LAST bone.
“Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle” has eight playable characters — including Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Yoshi — and they each have their own sci-fi weapons, laser guns, arm cannons, etc. But you don’t control the characters — you control Tuttorio, a small floating dish, to guide them through the worlds. There is also co-op multiplayer.

I really think this game could be real, seeing as the guys from GameXplain mentioned that they heard about it too a while back.
EDIT: Also, she mentioned that the new Assassin's Creed won't be coming to the Switch, and I also asked her about those rumors about Beyond Good & Evil 2 being a Switch exclusive and she said they're totally fake.
