«No lo consideramos de mundo abierto»: Los responsables de Mario Kart World explican este enfoque

New and interesting statements about Mario from Mario Kart! After learning all the details shared in the Nintendo Direct for this game, we now have more information about Nintendo Switch 2. On the website, we have already updated all the games announced for the console and now we have news about this release.

This time we have found out why its developers do not consider this game as an interconnected world, but not of the «open world» type. Producer Kosuke Yabuki, with experience since Mario Kart Wii to Mario Kart 8, explains that this idea and battles with up to 24 players were key to the project from the start, although they were previously unfeasible due to technical limitations.

In the free mode, players can freely explore areas inspired by classic regions from the Mario universe, discovering circuits and getting familiar with the environment before competing. Yabuki clarifies that they avoided the term «open world» because they found it vague, preferring the concept of a vast but carefully structured world, designed to maintain the traditional essence of Mario Kart within a new format.

«Regarding Mario Kart World, naturally we do not use the term ‘open world’ because, for me, sometimes that definition can be a bit confusing, ambiguous, and we want it to be very specific», he assures.
