Template:Infobox Mario & Luigi: Dream Team (Mario & Luigi RPG 4: Dream Adventure in Japan and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. in Europe & Australia) is an upcoming title for the Nintendo 3DS. It is the fourth installment in the Mario & Luigi series. The game will be released in Europe on July 12th, Japan on the 19th and North America on August 11th.

It is part of the "Year of Luigi" alongside Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and the New Super Luigi U DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U. The 2 titles and the DLC are in celebration of the 30th anniversary of Luigi's debut. As such, Luigi has a much bigger role in the game than in the previous Mario & Luigi games. A special edition of Nintendo 3DS XL with a Luigi themed print will be released in Japan as part of the event and include the digital version of Dream Team preinstalled on the SD card.

Story

Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Toadsworth, and the Toads gets invited to Pi'illo Island and travel to the island for sightseeing. While touring the island, Peach gets pulled into the dream world dreamt up by Luigi.[1]

Gameplay

The gameplay seems to shift between Luigi's dream world, where Mario & Luigi move in a 2-D fashion and the regular world, where Mario & Luigi freely roam the overworld, unlike the previous 3 titles. While playing inside Luigi's dreams, Starlow can move his face to affect the area, such as spinning platforms. The battles appear to give the player coins, similarly to the Paper Mario series. Due to the shift to 3D, the game also uses a new art style. Badges similar to those in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story seem to make an appearance in this game.

Mario and Luigi's Battle System

The Battle system in Over world is similar to those in previous titles but the system in Dream World is totally different as Mario will be the one who fights in all battles with Luigi's Dream power. There are now 5 Categories of attack like in Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time. They are Jump, Hammer, Item, Luigi's face(which is Bros. Items in Dream World) or Red Shell(which is Bros. items in the Over world), and Flee. There are now more than 5 enemies in battle like Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story but it may even have more than 10 enemies in Battle unlike it.

Special Attacks in Over World

  • Fire Flower
  • A Propeller Block like thing which makes the Bros. fly and land roughly on the Enemy.
  • Red Shell
