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 8 and its Deluxe update have been around so long it's easy to forget that the game actually predates the Switch and can trace its origins way back to the Wii U. But every good run must come to an end,
