This feature not only rewards exploration but also highlights Mario Kart World's attention to detail, designed to enhance replay value for series veterans and newcomers alike. Mario Kart World, developed by Nintendo's renowned EPD division, continues to set benchmarks for the franchise.

The game has quickly become a best-seller on the Nintendo Switch, following its global release.
