Nintendo recently made headlines with the announcement of a brand new Mario & Luigi RPG titled Mario & Luigi: Brothership. This exciting news has left fans eagerly anticipating the release of this new addition to the beloved franchise.
One of the burning questions surrounding Brothership was the identity of the developer behind the project, especially after the unfortunate closure of AlphaDream. In a recent interview with Game File’s Stephen Totilo, a Nintendo representative provided some insight into this mystery. While the specific developer was not disclosed, it was mentioned that “some of the original developers who worked on the franchise are involved.”
According to reports from VGC, several key members from AlphaDream have continued working with Nintendo following the studio’s closure. These include Hiroyuki Kubota, the former development manager who is now a part of Monolith Soft, and Yoshihiko Maekawa, the director and producer of the Mario & Luigi series. Maekawa recently oversaw the development of the Switch version of Super Mario RPG, showcasing his dedication to the franchise.
Fans eagerly anticipating the revelation of the developer behind Mario & Luigi: Brothership will have to wait until the game’s release. The Nintendo representative hinted that the developer’s identity will be unveiled in “the game credits at release,” adding an element of surprise and anticipation for players.
With the secrecy surrounding the developer of Brothership, the gaming community has already started speculating about the potential creators behind the project. While Nintendo has been known to keep a tight lid on such information, leaks and official documents have occasionally revealed surprising collaborations, as seen with Forever Entertainment’s involvement in the development of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD for the Switch.
The mystery behind the development of Mario & Luigi: Brothership has added an extra layer of excitement to the upcoming RPG. With the promise of involvement from original franchise developers and the anticipation of a surprise reveal in the game credits, fans are eagerly awaiting further updates on this highly anticipated title.
