The Ultimate Racer's Dream: Mario Kart World Unleashed
"Mario and companions race across a sprawling globe in 'Mario Kart World'"
Get ready, Nintendo fans! The Switch 2's launch is just around the corner, and so is the long-awaited original title, "Mario Kart World". Having learned from the runaway success of its prequel, Mario Kart 8, this game is set to be a feat for the new console.
Explore, Race, and Dominate with Battle Royale Twist
If you're tired of racing on closed tracks, prepare to be amazed. "Mario Kart World" introduces a grand, open world for racing enthusiasts, similar to the beloved "Forza Horizon" but with a twist. Whether you're in the mood for some solo exploration or professional racing, the open world offers a vast, vibrant playground to explore.
Besides the classic game modes like Grand Prix, Time Trials, and Versus Races, "Mario Kart World" brings a new, Battle Royale-inspired mode: Knockout Tour. Pitting 24 players against each other in a long, linear racetrack, this mode will test your racing skills like never before. After certain track sections, the bottom four racers are eliminated, creating heart-stopping competition until only four are left to duke it out for the championship.
New Characters, iconic Characters, and Fabulous Costumes
Expect some familiar faces as you speed through the open world, but get ready for some fresh competition too. And for many characters, it's not just about their iconic designs any longer; they come decked out in fabulous costumes. A cow has already garnered the hearts of many fans, so watch out for her on the tracks!
Will "Mario Kart World" prove worthy of the price? With the digital version priced at around 80 euros and the physical version at 90 euros, the verdict will only be out after the game's release on June 5. The game will be available without an age rating, along with the Nintendo Switch 2. Curious about the online game modes? Don't forget, they require a paid membership for Nintendo Switch Online.
