- Mario Kart WorldFree Roam mode will include open world challenges
- Players will be able to find “P” switches in the world that will activate the challenges
- Fishing medallions to collect and other hidden features can also be discovered
Nintendo confirmed that Mario Kart WorldFree Roam mode will include challenges and collections.
During the Mario Kart World Nintendo Direct today, we were treated to a showcase of more than 15 minutes from the next Switch 2 launch title, offering a new look on new cards and courses, the Grand Prix, the direct elimination tour, new tips and free roam mode.
Nintendo revealed free Roam mode during the Sweight 2 Direct earlier this month. This will allow players to drive freely around multiple game cards, but in today’s broadcast, it has been revealed that the open world will not be as empty as I thought initially.
Crossing the world, players can take up challenges and missions. In the images, it is said that players can find “hundreds” of “P” switches that will activate the challenges, with one that stains you to cring rails to collect blue pieces on the “Slackline course”.
It also seems that there will be timed races, as well as collection fishing medallions scattered around the world, hidden panels, etc.
This makes me ask me if Nintendo will offer additional challenges after launch, perhaps in the form of downloadable content (DLC) or content fixes.
Mario Kart World The same day will launch the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5, 2025, for $ 449.99 / £ 395.99 $ 499.99 / 429.99 £ for a Mario Kart World pack.
Pre-orders are now alive in the United Kingdom, but American pre-orders and Canadian pre-orders have been delayed because Nintendo assesses the potential prices.
