The first Mario + Rabbids game was better than it had any right to be, but it wasn't perfect. While its XCOM-inspired turn-based tactics gameplay worked surprisingly well with its roster of beloved Super Mario characters, and the two series' charm managed to blend in a fairly seamless, non-jarring way, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle had a few key issues. One of the biggest of these was the game's overworld, an element that the upcoming sequel Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope looks to be improving upon.
