The Mario Kart World Direct didn't have a great deal of entirely new information, but it did expand a lot on some things that we already knew, like the game's available game modes, what you can do in the new open world, and more.

Eight new Mario Kart World tracks appear during the new Nintendo Direct livestream, including a few unlockable courses from past games.

This week, Nintendo held a Mario Kart World Direct to reveal more details on Mario Kart World’s open-world gameplay, multiple game modes, characters, and racers. The game, which is planned for release on Nintendo Switch 2, will support up to 24 players and a vast open-world that features many interconnected courses.
