The latest and arguably greatest Mario Kart game, Mario Kart World, launched alongside the Switch 2 earlier this month, and it’s been received very well by critics and fans alike. The game hasn’t been without its problems though, many of which thankfully should be fixed with today’s new update.
Mario Kart World has been updated to version 1.1.1, and while there aren’t any major new additions or changes, there are a lot of bug fixes that should help players along. Among the fixes are a fix for an issue that would cause the game to crash when watching a replay after a race, as well as an issue that would cause the game to crash after playing an online race. These issues were rare, but they were very frustrating when they popped up, so it’s good to see Nintendo working fast to fix them.

Other issues fixed include an issue that would prevent players from using items, an issue that would kill the controls when in Free Roam mode, and an issue that saw players slipping through the wall on DK Spaceport.
