Mario Kart 9 becomes Mario Kart World, allowing players to race off the track in a new freeroaming mode. A potential Mario Kart movie should draw inspiration from Fast & Furious stunts while maintaining Nintendo's family-friendly essence.

Mario Kart 9 has the chance to dust off some forgotten and underutilized Nintendo characters and bring them back as race kart drivers.

Mario Kart World is an open-world racing game in the style of Forza Horizon, in which fields of 24 racers compete across a huge map with different regions. It has many features associated with more realistic racing games, including a photo mode, dynamically changing weather conditions, and time-of-day that will affect the racing experience.
