In an exciting announcement made during the Nintendo Treehouse livestream, it was revealed that Mario Kart World, the upcoming exclusive title for the new Switch 2 console, will hit the shelves on June 5. This new game promises to revolutionize the racing experience in this Nintendo classic, introducing innovative mechanics that will facilitate gameplay and make matches even more dynamic.
A Mario Kart that introduces numerous new mechanics and changes
One of the most notable features of Mario Kart World is the automation of defensive item usage. Unlike previous versions, where players had to hold down a button to drag a protective item behind their kart, in this new installment, items are automatically placed in a defensive position upon being collected. This means that players will be able to use other items more quickly without the worry of releasing their defense, which could result in a much smoother and less frustrating racing experience.
In addition to this interesting mechanic, the game includes the Knockout Tour mode, which will allow up to 24 players to compete simultaneously. This mode has been described as a true revolution in the racing genre, as it promises to elevate competitiveness and fun among friends and online.
While there are high expectations for the launch of Mario Kart World, the gaming community is eager to discover how these new mechanics will impact the balance of the game and the strategy among racers. With elements of accessibility and quick use of defensive items, the title is expected to not only attract longtime fans but also new players willing to experience the tracks of the Mario multiverse.
