Mario Strikers: Battle League Football\u00a0launches for\u00a0Nintendo Switch\u00a0on 10th<\/sup>\u00a0June and features Strike \u2013 the five-on-five sport that encourages mayhem and doing what it takes to win. It\u2019s like football, if football had no ref and no rules. Check out the new Mario Strikers: Battle League Football \u2013 Overview Trailer here<\/a> to learn about additional gameplay details, including all the ways players can thwack, zap and dropkick their opponents on the way to victory.<\/p>\n In\u00a0Mario Strikers: Battle League Football, players can select among familiar faces from the Mushroom Kingdom including Mario, Peach, Donkey Kong and Toad, and play locally with up to eight players or take the competition online. Players can use a Team Tackle to help a teammate cover extra ground, \u00a0knock down opponents, or snatch a Strike Orb to unleash a Hyper Strike for two points. Strike has no fouls \u2013 so you can make the other team wish they never crossed studs with you!<\/p>\n Even without rules, protection is paramount. While easy to pick up and play, players can also deploy deeper strategies by donning flashy gear that can be equipped to boost their characters\u2019 stats, which will vary between characters, including increased speed and shooting for more scoring potential, or up their strength to resist tackles. Each character also has their own signature Striker Style to discover.<\/p>\n Once geared up, players can gather their fearsome friends together in the online-only Strikers Club mode. In this mode, players are able to create their own club with up to 20 strikers or join an existing one, and then compete against other clubs to gain points and shove their way up the rankings each season. Club owners can customise their club\u2019s uniform and will also earn tokens after each match which can be used to customise the club stadium.<\/p>\n
