Nintendo's new RPG game Mario & Luigi: Brothership arrives next week on the Switch and we've now got an update about the eShop version's file size.
According to multiple eShop pages, this new entry in the Mario & Luigi series will take up around 9.8GB (so close to 10GB). The last entry in the series dates back to the 3DS era in 2018/19 with the release of Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey.
In other words, this likely makes the new game on Switch the biggest Mario & Luigi game to date (at least in terms of file size). If you are planning on picking up a digital copy of this game, Nintendo will also be offering it as part of its Game Voucher service, where you can redeem two first-party titles.
Will you be buying this one digitally or physically? Let us know in the comments.

The pre-order download is indeed 9,8GB.
The original estimate was 10.0 GB btw, a sweet 200 MB worth of space saved since lol
Why are we estimating. The game was leaked over a week and a half ago.
Relatively big file size, good thing this is one of the games I was able to preorder physically discounted from my usual retailer here in Italy!
I thought this was going to be a co op game ☹️
glad to learn that 9.8 is close to 10
What is that pink creature exactly? Is it living furniture?
Nintendo the king of optimizing games.
Cant wait to play it.
The game is pre-downloaded on my Switch, and it is about 9.8 GB on there. It’s currently my 2nd biggest download on my Switch (Pikmin 4 is the biggest right now), definitely a big chunk of storage!
@Angelus3K People like it?
The newest Mario n weejee is the biggest Mario n weejee
That is wild to me. Odyssey was only 5.7, how packed is this game for it to be 9.8?
''Estimated'', said the OP.
@NinChocolate whatever it is, it is most definitely NOT a pig!
Loaded up and ready for the 7th. My kids will probably be the ones to play this the most. I’ve enjoyed the Mario and Luigi games, but I’ve never finished them.
Better buy the physical copy of the game.
The file is 10gigs ive been playing it.
I was gonna get this one physical anyway, but that is a surprisingly hefty file size.
It'll be a hoss of a game.
@Notsoavid @Ninchocolate The characters name is Snoutlet and it already has a page on the Mario wiki. It’s basically a flying piggy bank with a 2 prong outlet for a face which I know is weird. You also can see the slot on top where the coins would go in, if you look at other images of it.
@ancientlii An X user who finished the game said it has the best story of any Mario RPG game and it took them over 55 hours to finish it.
@Awesomegayness strange stuff, but considering how difficult originality is to achieve in pop art, unlikely combinations are the likeliest way I guess
@Jiggies neato, thanks
