Over the years, we’ve seen a number of interesting crossovers between franchises. Some of them turned out to be huge successes whilst some turned out to be huge flops.
MARIO: RABBIDS KINGDOM BATTLE
The Super Mario and Rabbids crossover was chaotic, to say the least. The Raving Rabbids from the Rayman franchise were transported into the Super Mario world after putting on a VR headset.
POKER NIGHT AT THE INVENTORY
A little on the fence about this one, but we’re leaning towards being okay with it. Poker Night At The Inventory by Telltale Games is a crossover between four franchises.
NICKTOONS MLB
Want to see something somewhat disturbing? Look up Nicktoons MLB. Not sure what it is, perhaps the deadpan stare of Spongebob’s bulging 3D eyes, but this game rubs me (and a whole lot of people) the wrong way.
NBA STREET V3
NBA Street was known for its gritty, down-to-earth side of the basketball world and it was doing well on its own. To be paired up in this weird mashup with the Mario characters seems like a bit of overkill.
MONSTER HUNTER WORLD: ICEBORNE X RESIDENT EVIL
This one was a limited-time crossover between two franchises that seemed highly unlikely to have worked together in the first place. Yet, it happened. Resident Evil characters were placed into the tropical forest of the Monster Hunter world
LEGO ROCK BAND
The tracklist was the saving grace of this game, you just have to get past the Lego versions of your favorite musicians jamming out with Lego people dancing in the background.
