The Mario & Rabbids crossover game, supposedly titled Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, might just be the video game industry’s worst kept secret. There have been a ton of leaks on the game lately, and we can now add another one to the list.

Japan Expo is one of the biggest video game, anime and Japanese culture conventions in the world. It takes place every July in Paris, and this year will be no exception. The convention’s official Twitter account posted a bunch of new info today, such as what kinds of panels and special events will take place, special guests that will be there etc. They also tweeted out the following: (translated from French) “Nintendo and Ubisoft exclusively present the video game Mario x Rabbids”.

The Tweet has now been deleted, but we saved a screenshot of it:

At this points, there seems to be little doubt that the game is real.

I wish they kept it a secret. Forever.

Nintendo's secret ninja squad have been slacking off with all this leaking lately .

Will the gameplay not be good enough they thought incorporating Mario into it was necessary to garner attention?

It's a Ubisoft developed game, it's their Ninjas' fault 

They're on strike, currently...

If I were to guess I'd say that Ubisoft being a french company chose Knights over Ninjas though due to the heavy armor they aren't as efficent as the Nintendo Ninjas

Maybe they wanted to leak this game to keep everyone focused on it so that the games they really want to be kept secret don't get out!

I can't wait to see actually gameplay for this title. Sounds crazy, but who knows could be good.

I'm actually excited to see the gameplay of this game. Btw, it could also look good since it's supposedly being made on the snowdrop engine.
