Purple Orb Of Death - Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope

This video shows a glitch involving the red coin challenge, roaming encounters, and Beep-O's wave power that can lead to a game crash. Completing the red coin challenge as you engage a roaming enemy will cause the game to enter a semi-frozen state, including freezing the red coin collection animation. Some options will be available, such as opening up menus, but movement of heroes and other characters is frozen. Beep-O's wave power creates a lot of lag in this state, enough to crash the game when used multiple times while moving the camera into the purple orb formed by a buggy animation.

Currently, this red coin challenge, along with the nearby Squasher, is the only known location to activate the glitch. This is also the earliest known game crash besides the newsfeed crash, which occurs outside of save files.

There are other interesting features of the glitch not shown in this video. Entering a battle will softlock the game since you cannot move your heroes or open menus. Entering the battle from a roaming encounter before the camera pans over to the chest spawning in causes a slightly different state. The game will seem normaly upon reentering the overworld, but the red coin challenge will only require collecting 7 coins despite spawning 8th. Collecting the 8th will softlock the game. Warping to checkpoints will keep your heroes frozen unless they warp to a different sub-area.
