Mario Kart 8 has set the bar as the definitive title in the series, but the new installment, Mario Kart World, seeks to innovate with an open-world format. Despite facing challenges in balancing its unique gameplay with the demands of a seamless racing map, Nintendo manages to maintain the thrilling essence that has defined Mario Kart for decades. The result is a captivating yet imperfect experience that showcases what fans love about the franchise while exploring new gameplay possibilities.
Mario Kart 8 is the definitive Mario Kart: crisp, technical, and expanded over a decade, but the new Mario Kart World attempts an ambitious, ‘soft reboot’ into open-world racing.
Nintendo's new open-world approach isn’t perfect for Mario Kart's unique style and chaos, yet it retains core aspects that make the franchise beloved: fun and accessible racing.
