Rolling Stone recently caught up with Mario Kart World producer Kosuke Yabuki to chat with him at length about the Nintendo Switch 2 launch title. One thing that he was asked by the publication is whether we can expect to see a higher 200cc mode like the one which appeared in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. He mused that he understood that some players like the higher difficulty that came with the 200cc mode and teased that he can’t comment on it being implemented just yet.
When asked whether he plans to implement a higher, 200cc difficulty like the one previously added to Mario Kart 8 post-launch, Yabuki stays mum. “Some players are really happy with the addition of high difficulty modes likes this,” he says coyly. “However, does that mean we’re going to consider adding engine sizes that are larger than 150cc to Mario Kart World? I’m afraid I can’t say just yet.”
