Mario Strikers: Battle League Announces Final Free Update
The final players have arrived!
Mario Strikers: Battle League was a big deal when it was announced early in 2022. It had been many years since the soccer title featuring Mario and his friends had gotten a title, and diehard fans had been begging for that to change. Thankfully, they got their wish, and the game had an excellent quality to it—the game built upon everything the previous titles had done, creating new things for fans to enjoy. But one complaint about the game was the small roster size. That was something that got fixed through a couple of free updates. One of which has just been announced.
As revealed on Twitter, the free update will arrive tomorrow and feature two more characters to play as. The first is Bowser Jr. He’ll be an excellent support player due to his very accurate passes. He’s the kind of player you want on your team to help set up your scorers so that you can get goals quickly.
Then, there is Birdo. Birdo has a powerful shot and is very accurate with their shots too. As a result, they might be the powerhouse you want on your squad to help tip the balance of the game in your favor.
Speaking of balancing, some new armor pieces have been added to the title via the Shellfish Gear. The gear is meant to improve your speed and technique stats. So if you’ve wanted to do that for a squad member, here you go.
Finally, there is a new stage that you can select for Quick Matches or to set as your club stadium, the “Urban Rooftop!” You can check out all the additions via the trailer below.
