In Mario Kart World you'll be kart driving, flying, and boat racing in a variety of different karts including motorcycles, atvs, big trucks, jet skis, snowmobiles, airplanes, and... cows riding scooters? Cool. You'll be zooming around on rainbow boosts with a large cast of playable characters while collecting power-ups, riding rails and walls, all while dodging giant whales, sand worms and more.
Game Modes at launch:
- Grand Prix is back where you'll race across four different courses while battling for first place.
- Knockout Tour is a longer race with no laps where you get knocked out of the race if you don't make it to each checkpoint in time. I love this type.
- Free Roam where you'll get to explore all of the Mario Kart World however you want by driving anywhere in it, including off-road.
Track designs include deserts, snowy plains, farmlands, sky highyways,
and more with weather effects during the day or night. I'm not sure if
this is randomized or specific to the tracks. Random would be cool.
I got all of this information straight out of the trailer below. I coulda added more if I studied every single second of it but that aint my thing. I also didn't want to name every single character in there. It's a lot. More information for the game will come on April 17th with a Nintendo Direct specific for the game.
Unfortunately, apparently Nintendo is taking the first step in raising the base price on video games yet again. Of course they say it will "only be some of them." LOL Be sure to remember to blame "inflation." 😉
So, anyways, Mario Kart World
looks really amazing to me. I'm sure kids will love it. It will launch
with the Nintendo Switch 2 when it releases on June 5th, 2025. I have no
plans on getting the device. I have nothing against you buying one for me,
though. 😊 Donkey Kong Bananza looks great too.
Side note: if you've never played it before, try Split/Second some time. It'll still "hold up." Thanks for reading. Game on.

ReplyDeleteI didn't notice all the vehicles. That's awesome. Maybe they will have an adventure mode like DKR.

DeleteI never played DKR but I have seen comments online also bringing that game up.
Thanks for your comment.
