What to expect

At the Nintendo Treehouse live broadcasts, we got to see more video of Mario Kart: World, including glimpses of the Knockout Tour and Grand Prix gameplay modes, as well as GameChat interaction. Additionally, it appears that the game incorporates in-game accomplishments, which some viewers picked up on during the live stream. However, Nintendo has clarified that there won’t be any universal achievements system-wide, like other platforms offer.

Based on recent updates, we can anticipate further details about the game, like new race tracks and playable characters. The Nintendo Treehouse stream hinted at a total of 84 characters, including different costumes. Moreover, it seems that the legendary track from the franchise could reappear.

In Mario Kart World’s Free Roam mode, it would be beneficial to elaborate on the variety of actions players can participate in during this open environment.

On June 5, Mario Kart World simultaneously debuts with the Switch 2, and it’ll set you back a notable $80. Yet, Nintendo has justified the high price, promising that the April 17 Mario Kart World Direct will offer compelling reasons for the game’s hefty price tag.
