Switch 2 gamers have discovered a way to get their hands on the new Mario Kart World for only £31, as preorders for the much-hyped game finally open.
Set to be released on Thursday, June 5 alongside the console itself, the highly-anticipated title costs a whopping £74.99 (or £66.99 when purchased from the eShop), and fans have called the price tag ‘outrageous’.

When does Mario Kart World launch in the UK?
In case you missed it, the new title will launch on Thursday, June 5 exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2 (which will be available to purchase on the same day). The digital version will be available to buy via the Nintendo store for £66.99, whilst the physical edition costs £74.99.
Pre-orders opened briefly last month but quickly sold out, so if you want to get your order in you're best off going for a bundle.
What to expect from the Mario Kart World launch
If you’ve been wondering how Nintendo will top Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, then listen up. For the first time ever, up to 24 players can race at the same time, a huge departure from the original 12-player limit.
There’s sure to be more competition too, as the tracks are even bigger than ever before to fit into Free Roam mode, which allows players to race without time limits or lap counters. Our rave review of the game reads: “If Nintendo has been able to create a brand-new Mario Kart game with infinitely more chaotic gameplay, bigger, better tracks, and a genuine world to explore on top of all the usual joys of kart racing, the Nintendo Switch 2 could well be kicking off with an all-timer.”
