Nintendo’s latest racing hit is bigger than ever — and now we know just how big.
A dedicated Mario Kart World player has uncovered a staggering 202 alternate routes hidden across the game’s 30 diverse tracks, showcasing just how expansive Nintendo’s new kart racer truly is.
The game, launched on June 5 as a flagship title for the Nintendo Switch 2, has already impressed fans with its global tracks, improved visuals, and dynamic gameplay. But few anticipated just how much depth each track really offers—until a player known online as Getlucky took matters into their own hands.
202 Routes and 10 Hours of Racing
In a post shared on Twitter/X, Getlucky revealed that after roughly a day of intense playtime, they documented all 202 alternate paths in Mario Kart World. The feat, shown off in a YouTube video, includes routes across every environment—from the lush green of Mario Bros. Circuit to the perilous drops of Rainbow Road.
According to Getlucky, racing through all the routes takes more than 10 hours, not including replays, time trials, or online races. The alternate paths offer different shortcuts, hazards, and gameplay mechanics, making each track feel like a new challenge every lap.
What This Means for Players
The discovery further solidifies Mario Kart World as the most content-rich entry in the franchise. It rewards exploration, skill, and adaptability like never before. Each track is no longer a single loop but a complex playground of possibilities—perfect for competitive racers and speedrunners alike.
Whether you’re aiming to master every route or just explore the game’s depth casually, Getlucky’s discovery shows that Mario Kart World isn’t just about speed—it’s about strategic racing and discovery.
