Three months after the launch of Mario Kart World, it’s fair to say that the game’s open world is the weakest part of the experience. Despite being incredibly well-designed with dozens of variations of tracks that all link into one another, and hundreds of bite-sized challenges known as P-Switches, driving around the Mushroom Kingdom lacked variety after dozens of hours of play. Making matters worse was the inability to track how many P-Switches a player has completed.
Mario Kart World finally addresses this issue (among others) in its latest free update. And while it won’t solve all the problems I have with the game’s main single-player offering, it’s at least an overdue step in the right direction.
