The new Mario RPG game is said to focus on Mario Universe which was invaded by Rabbids - some are friend while some are foe. It will also include a Boss Enemy, of course, in a form of a new Bowser wherein its design is based on the Rabbids. Additionally, the game is said to feature "numerous cameo appearances from the Mario series' best known characters, the core party will feature numerous, more minor characters. There is a particular focus on Yoshi as a primary party member, alongside a playable Rabbid."
