Mario Kart World is a racing game for Nintendo Switch 2, developed by Nintendo.
In Mario Kart World, players will be able to “drive virtually everywhere”, and 24 drivers will feature in each race.
“Put the pedal to the metal in Mario Kart World, a brand-new experience set in a vast interconnected environment,” Nintendo said. “Race seamlessly across connected courses that deliver Mario Kart racing like never before. Twenty-four drivers can compete in a race.
“And in Free Roam, it’s possible to go off the racetrack and drive in any direction you wish, explore areas that pique your interest and take some photos at scenic spots with a group of friends. Mario Kart World races onto Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5.”
