Mario Kart World: $80 Alone, $50 with Nintendo Switch 2 Bundle

Author : Ryan May 02,2025

At today's Nintendo Direct, Nintendo unveiled the much-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2, set to launch on June 5, 2025. The new console will be available at a starting price of $449.99. For those eager to dive into gaming right away, a bundle featuring Mario Kart World is offered at $499.99.

For fans looking to purchase Mario Kart World separately, the game will be available for $79.99. This pricing strategy marks a significant shift, considering that the original Nintendo Switch saw only one $70 game release, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The newly announced Donkey Kong Bananza also follows this higher price point at $70.
