This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

To do: Deserialize the binary C++ scripts. There's MANY.

To do: Figure out a better way to view the in-game models and textures. View 3ds_max_test_files.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a, shall we say,... unexpected crossover between Nintendo's Mario and Ubisoft's Rabbids franchises, which takes the form of a turn-based tactical RPG a la Ubisoft's own X-COM series. Despite the odd crossover idea, the game did rather well with audiences and critics alike. It was also Ubisoft's first Switch-exclusive game to use the Snowdrop Engine, the first time the engine was ever used on a Nintendo platform.

Unused Textures

Missing texture placeholder

The file textures\missing.dds in the base game is a texture to stand in for a missing texture file.

Unused Nintendo Logo

The file moria\baked\art\ui\boot\nintendo.dds in the base game is a texture of a poorly drawn Nintendo logo.

Unused Models

Bwapeach

An early base design for the Lava Queen known as chr_enm_bwapeach_tpose_01 can be found in moria\sdf\nx\data\moria\baked\art\animation\01-chr\03-enm\bwapeach.
The model features hair different from the final Lava Queen design, and lacks many of the Lava Queen's defining features, such as her horned helmet, cape and gloves.

Internal Project Names

The game's main internal name is Moria, given by the directory going by the name and many other references in files. rr5 is another relating to the Built by rr5.buildfarm string, this likely means Raving Rabbids (project/game) 5, relating to originally being the 5th game in the series, likely proving the game was still in development since Rabbids Land (rr6, also the main project name) or delayed in the Wii U era. As of the base game, Built by rr5.buildfarm/PDC-BLD-481 is present.

Leftover Tom Clancy's The Division data

Many files mention rouge and directories, which is the internal name for that game, meaning the game was likely built off a build of that game.

Unused Music

The Phantom's song in this game has three verses in the files, but only the first and last are played in game. The second one has the Phantom talk about how Mario and co's attacks are ineffective against him, and was presumably going to play before the party figured out his weakness in the boss battle.
