Mario Strikers Online Confirmed!

Although it was more or less confirmed at the game’s announcement, we have received word that the upcoming Mario Strikers: Charged will have online multiplayer for up to four players. According to the official website, players can compete worldwide in both ranked and unranked matches.

Mario Strikers: Charged hits Europe on May 25th, Nintendo hasn’t announced release dates for the rest of the world yet. Not only does this mean that they gets the game before us, it also means that they will have online Wii titles before we do.

I dug the arcade gameplay in the original Strikers, but I personally can’t wait to see what could be done with a Winning Eleven for the Wii. Make it so, Konami!

Get ready for kick off!
