Is a Mario + Rabbids Sequel in Development?

Remember when the tactical RPG Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was first teased?

I didn’t think a crossover between Mario and Rabbids sounded too appealing, so I was pleasantly surprised when it actually looked good.

Indeed, it got a positive reception after it came out in 2017.

Although I still haven’t played it, I intend to… and now there’s a chance that a sequel is on the way.

Ubisoft’s official Rabbids Twitter account used to have the Twitter handle @rabbidsofficial. The account hasn’t tweeted since August, but their handle has been changed to @mariorabbids.

(Someone already grabbed the “@rabbidsofficial” name.)

It’s not clear exactly when the change occurred, but a Reddit user says the account still had the old name on January 11, and another person on Twitter says the change occurred a few days before January 18. The official Rabbids website still has a link to @rabbidsofficial, as well.

Changing the account’s name to @mariorabbids over three years after Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was released is an odd decision if they aren’t planning to do anything else with it. As a result, this has led to a lot of speculation that a Mario + Rabbids sequel might be in development.

On the other hand, it seems like their other Rabbids social media accounts were already focused on Mario + Rabbids, so maybe they just decided to change the Twitter account to match.

What do you think? Is Ubisoft developing a new Mario + Rabbids game? If it turns out to be true, I’ll make sure to play the original before the new one comes out to see for myself what this bizarre crossover is like.
