Nintendo has rolled out a significant update for Mario Kart World, addressing several technical issues that players encountered since the game’s launch on Switch 2. While the patch doesn’t introduce new content, it focuses on smoothing out the gameplay experience by resolving critical bugs and glitches.
Critics praised Mario Kart World for its polished mechanics and expansive design at release, but a handful of persistent issues needed attention. Players reported problems like unusable items, game crashes during replays or online races, and control malfunctions in Free Roam mode. The latest update, Version 1.1.1, tackles these concerns head-on with a comprehensive list of fixes.
Key Fixes in the Update:
For those anticipating fresh content like new Free Roam features, this update may feel underwhelming. Nintendo hasn’t announced any major expansions yet, sticking to performance enhancements for now.
The patch is live and should download automatically if the console is online. If not, manually trigger the update by pressing the + or – button on the game icon, then navigate to Software Update and select “Via the Internet.”
Mario Kart World remains a Switch 2 exclusive, packed with surprises like the classic Totaka’s Song easter egg and a Mirror Mode that flips the entire open world. With these fixes, the racing experience should now be smoother than ever.
