While Switch owners wait for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope to come out later this year, Ubisoft has announced Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars, an animated movie that will be coming to Netflix.
A trailer for Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars was released to coincide with the announcement, and fans won’t have to wait too long to see it, as the movie will premiere on Netflix on February 18.
According to NintendoLife, Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars will be one hour and ten minutes long, which has the titular characters going to Mars for a mission that goes terribly wrong. Despite the characters going to space, this movie won’t be connected to Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope for the Nintendo Switch.

Here’s the summary of the story thus far:
“When Nebulous Industries announces they are recruiting Rabbids for a mission to Mars, Beardie doesn’t think twice. As a genius Rabbid misunderstood by his stupid peers, he has always dreamed of going to the red planet. After successfully passing the tests, he takes off with three other Rabbids: Disco, the lively queen of the dancefloor, Cosmo, the pilot with self-confidence issues and Mini, the adorable tiny Rabbid who HATES being mistaken for a kid. But as this unlikely team leaves the Earth for Mars nothing goes as planned.
Facing an interplanetary space threat, our heroes will have to learn how to overcome their differences and understand that true wisdom comes from the heart!”
Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars is coming to Netflix on February 18. Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope does not have a release date, though a release window is slated for this year.
