Nintendo has officially revealed Mario Kart 9 and it’s actually called Mario Kart World. Players will race across new courses staged all over the world and in a series first be able to drive all around the map in-between races.

The arcade racer hasn’t yet strayed from its format, but that’s about to change when Mario Kart World is released alongside the Switch 2 on June 5. In the time I spent with Mario Kart World during the preview event, I most enjoyed all the times I wasn’t strictly racing. I was just driving and vibing.

Mario Kart World redefines the series with a Forza Horizon-like open environment and frenetic elimination mode that'll leave your heart pumping as you blaze toward the finish line.
