After a brief tease when the Switch 2 Direct was announced, we now officially know more about the next Mario Kart game. Mario Kart World sees players back at it with Mario and friends for another rip-roaring racing extravaganza. Get a look at the trailer below!
In a first for the series, Mario Kart World will feature an open-world design, allowing players to move between tracks seamlessly. The game will also feature dynamic weather, 24 car races, and a range of new modes, including Knockout Tour, which sees players gradually eliminated after each leg.
The brand-new entry will be exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2.
Racers eager to get more details on the game won’t have to wait long. On April 17, Nintendo will be showcasing more of the game in a Mario Kart Nintendo Direct.
Mario Kart World will be available as a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5, 2025.
