The world is yours

Mario Kart World is a racing game that lets players compete as the beloved characters from Nintendo franchises. It's the first installment in the long-running series that offers an open world with multiple tracks instead of multiple separate circuits. As a result, you may explore the map and go off-road.

Fewer restrictions, more fun

Exploring the map in Mario Kart World will let you reach many diverse interconnected locations, including forests, cities, and mountains. Your travels will never be boring because a day/night cycle and a dynamic weather system make the world feel alive and ever-changing. Super Mario World also raises the bar when it comes to the roster. You can choose among 50 playable characters!

The more, the merrier

Although roaming the map is incredibly enjoyable, Mario Kart World is all about racing. And racing has never been more competitive. You will test your driving skills in high-octane game modes such as Grand Prix, Knockout, and Battle. With wacky power-ups, you must never lower your guard because no spot and no advantage are safe. If you don't want to play alone, you can compete with up to 3 other players on a single system or go online to join 24-player races.
