Customer Ratings & Reviews

7 year old is obsessed with this game. He has figured out shortcuts and received all the stars and cups for each level. He has unlocked the extra levels. At first he was disappointed in the differences between Mario Kart 8 and this one but a lot of people expressed their disappointment and a software upgrade came out soon after release. He is upset about the points system when playing online. Others agree there is no set system for gaining and losing points.

Game is fun and definitely an upgrade. Kids love it and fin of the free roam play.

Let me first start off by saying this is simply a great Mario Kart game. The Knockout tour is a blast, grand prix is as fun as always, and the unlockables are fun. But this game is NOT worth the $80 I spent on it.... at least not yet. My hope is that Nintendo supports this game with DLC updates throughout the years, which I believe could make it worth the $80 I spent. As it stands right now, I would advise waiting until it goes on sale or grab a used copy for cheaper.

I really like the pace of this Mario Kart. The technical gameplay is refreshing and makes it really fun to play and watch! There is more chaos in each race and its double the racers which is 24 total. It does seem to be lacking some things but I feel like that is because of the free roam being bland. Some people may like it but I find it to not have a lot to offer in that mode. There are missions that are pretty simple. Would recommend picking up for any Switch 2 owner!

If you buy a Nintendo Switch 2, I feel like you HAVE to buy this game. It's almost a requirement. And that's not a bad thing. It's just really good. My family has been playing this game off and on since we got our Switch 2 a few months ago and we're still finding new locations in the open world side of the game!

Ive logged in about 5 hours of this game. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Its different style of MK8 and others and that is a good thing. I mostly play the cups. I like the level interconnected layout. Graphically it is much better than Mk8 for sure. Characters are more expressive. Level design and details are a way above Mk8. Overall i think if you like mario kart and felt the old tried n true formula need a kickstart, Mario kart world should provide that. 5/5 from me

A great game to play with my children! fast and easy to learn

Whats not to love?? Except this Mario Kart will create enemies REAL quick! Phenomenal game but be careful playing around your little ones especially if you have a bad mouth lol. 10/10 great game would recommend it to anyone tho!

This game i would think, is the most iconic game of nintendo switch 2. It it has the most iconic thing in the game, knockout tour, and most of the features of mario kart 8. The graphics are way better than the mario kart 8. You would enjoy this game even if it costs like $80

Great game, got it for my Switch 2. Like the open world design.

Now they're are good things about this game. Instead of twelve now there's twenty four racers.Old characters have new costumes and havenew courses. If I can give this game price it would be $60 but they are asking for $80. I would just say wait for a price reduction or buy a better racing game. Kirby air riders and sonic cross worlds(switch)( downloadable switch 2 update payment.) are two better alternatives that are on the switch 2

I picked up the game at the midnight release and it’s been so much fun since. Such a huge jump from Mario kart 8. The game feels very refreshing with so many skins to choose from. The new knockout mode is probably one of the best things to come out of the Mario kart series.

A breath of fresh air for Mario Kart! The open world dynamic and intermissions are two new features that really make this game shine! It is the classic Mario Kart feel, with some modern changes! The 4k resolution at 60FPS is exactly what puts this game over the top over any other Mario Kart game in the series!

I bought this game for my son and he absolutely loves it!

This game will give you hours of fun with friends, family or by yourself. Highly recommended

Just a great game all around! My nephew was overjoyed!

This is the best mario kart ever, online knockout is the best

Game looks great, so many characters and all customisable

Wasn’t sure about the open world Mario kart but after playing it for a bit I find it hard to put down. Battle mode is a lot of fun and the knockout tour adds a fun new twist in addition to the traditional Grand Prix. Also this has to be one of the best rainbow road levels they have ever done!

An amazing first party Nintendo Switch 2 game! Already about 50 hours in and am obsessed! Between Grand Prix, Knockout Tour and Free Roam, there is numerous modes to play with hours upon hours of gameplay. Great Mariokart game in the series!!
