This looks fantastic. Man, Switch is getting so many great games...
Linear and simple puzzles. Combat looks great, but from gamexplain preview, they said early combat and puzzle are too simple.
We are limited to the first two worlds. World 2 puzzles get a bit more involved, but you won't get stuck on a puzzle to the point it impedes progress. Completing battles will be the thing that hinders progress.
The thing is I love getting stuck on something, well not necessary stuck, but something that will test me. If the puzzles aren't that great I'm fine with it as long as the combat gets challenging in world 2.
Watch my Battle in the Snow video or the Midboss battle. Those battles aren't easy and if you want to Perfect them, you'll need to restart them. Battle in the Snow I got lucky to Perfect. The first few battles of World 1 are simple, but the difficulty jumps very sudden and you'll be pressed early on.
Kirk Granthope or something
And I see they've increased the price so I'm very happy I pre-ordered early, this looks fantastic!Grant Kirkhope. I'll upload some music samples.

Since the news of broken street date, I deleted my youtube history of this game to prevent spoilers and 3 hours later my brother informed me some already uploaded all of World 1.
Dodged a bullet there but can't believe people are willing to spoil it so quickly. Be careful guys.

It's not really a spoiler. We are allowed, per Ubisoft, to stream/capture all of World 1 and 2 today for coverage sake.

The Pixel Pack is included as a code inside the physical game box. I assume all first run copies will have them.

Amazon Deutschland is mailing the code in a few days, so I don't think it's inside the box. Watched a few eur unboxing videos and nobody mentioned or showed anything resembling a piece of paper with a code on it.

Same. I ended up ordering from Simply Games and they shipped it 5 mins after ordering. I'll just send the Shopto copy back once it arrives.
Aw man why do I never choose simply over shopto 😠

Ah, maybe it's only certain retailers? Looked like one was included here:

Same, never thought I'd buy another console again in my lifetime but XCOM is just too much a draw.

It really is colossally stupid, they could have easily made it a week 1 digital bonus or something. Very disappointing.
A small taste of the game's music:
Ancient Gardens Theme - Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Music - Nintendo Switch
A Song of Ice and Desert - Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Music - Nintendo Switch
The MidBoss Theme - Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Music - Nintendo Switch
Rabbid Kong's Theme - Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Music - Nintendo Switch (So gooood)

Do we know when the review embargo is up? Is it on Launch Day?
Really hoping the standard game can introduce enough to remain fresh throughout the story and keep me as excited as I am now.

Monday 28th 5am Pacific, so day before.
Wait is it that one store that always breaks release date?
Because I may go there after work too...
Too long or too short? It'd be weird if none of the later worlds aren't longer.
World 1 is shorter/easier than the following ones.

This music makes me want to get work done lol
I got very very very lucky.
Won't have time to play for a few hours tho.
Is this shit removable? WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!?
J&L?

Just did the same! Enjoy, man!
Videogames NY. Usually if VNY has something, JandL has it too tho.
US case is worse. Has a different e3 award logo in the upper right but also has an advert for the "pixel pack" on the bottom between the rating and ubi logo.
Ugh, no interior art. I was hoping Ubi would step it up for a game with Nintendo characters.
Well I know where I'm going tonight...also love J&L, but are these really the only two decent indie game stores in the city? I think LA spoiled me
Most of them were in Chinatown and closed after 9/11. JandL were there too but moved.
I know of at least two other indies, GameExpress in the Bronx and Bulletproof Comics and Games in Brooklyn. Not sure about any others in Manhattan proper.
Thanks! I will have to check them out someday. Seems VNY is still the most convenient.
