Mario Kart World (Ultimate)

Mario Kart World (also known as Mario Kart Ultimate) is a massive entry in the Mario Kart series where most of the content from previous Mario Kart titles return for one massive Mario Kart title. The game will be released on Nintendo Switch on an unknown date
== Gameplay ==
The gameplay keeps the traditional elements of previous Mario Kart titles with this one being most like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Players pick a character of three weight classes and drive vehicles of various stats, strengths, and weaknesses as they race against 11 other racers to finish 3 laps around the track.
All elements from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe return including gliding, underwater sections, and anti-gravity sections
