It also adds a new stadium
Diddy Kong and Pauline are the latest free DLC/update characters forMario Strikers: Battle League, andthey’re out now.
Originally confirmed inthe recent September Nintendo Direct, this is actually a full-on update forBattle League, billed as version 1.2.0. It not only adds the aforementioned content (Diddy Kong, Pauline, the Planetoid stadium, and more gear), it also serves as an adjustment patch of sorts. CPU teammates are now snappier, charge times for perfect passes have been tweaked, and you now earn more coins in general. Clubs will also now be barred from participating in a season for 30 days of idle time as opposed to 90 days if no one appears online during that time period.
Note that this follows the prior July update (1.1.0),which added Daisy, Shy Guy, and the Desert Ruin stadiuminto the mix. WhileMario Strikers: Battle Leaguehad a solid foundation at launch, it really needed more content to justify itself for a lot of folks. It’s already there, roster-wise.
