Mario Kart World, the latest installment in Nintendo's iconic racing series, will not feature the fast-paced 200cc mode at launch, according to producer Kosuke Yabuki. While this mode was a popular addition in Mario Kart 8, players will have to settle for the traditional 50, 100, and 150cc speeds for now. However, Yabuki hinted that a future update could introduce this much-anticipated gameplay option, similar to how it was handled in previous titles. Fans of high-speed racing are left wondering if this classic mode will make a comeback soon.

Will Mario Kart World eventually include a 200cc mode?

While 200cc won't be available at launch in Mario Kart World, the producer did not rule out the possibility of adding it via a future update. Players might see this feature added, just as it was in the previous game.

Mario Kart World represents a fresh take on the series, introducing an interconnected, roamable world, which differs from the typical track-based designs of earlier games. This shift aims to enhance the overall racing experience, allowing players to explore and enjoy the vibrant environments while still delivering the fast-paced action fans love. With the release coinciding with the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, Mario Kart World is poised to attract both new players and veteran racers alike.
