The developers who gave us the original Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle in 2017 and then its Donkey Kong DLC campaign one year later could have very easily kicked back, rested on their laurels and put themselves on auto-pilot to deliver similarly structured sequels for the rest of the Switch life cycle -- and beyond!
