Mario Kart World version 1.7.0 update now available

Nintendo has released the version 1.7.0 update for Mario Kart World, which adds two new routes to Knockout tour, plus a new feature that lets you place stickers in Photo Mode.

Here are the details:

■ New Routes Added to Knockout Tour

Knockout Tour is a mode where you race from one end of the vast world to the other. It starts with 24 drivers, and if you don’t place high enough by the time you reach each of the five checkpoints… you’re out!

Now, two new routes are being added to Knockout Tour: Drill Rally and Boomerang Rally.

Drill Rally

A route that connects Wario Shipyard and Bowser’s Castle.

Boomerang Rally

A route that connects Salty Salty Speedway and Whistlestop Summit.

These new routes become selectable once you clear at least one Knockout Tour rally.

Additional Knockout Tour routes are also planned for future updates.

■ Stickers Added to Photo Mode

When taking pictures using Photo Mode, you can now place stickers you’ve collected.

You can also combine them with frames, making it easy to create original photos. You can use touch controls or Joy-Con 2 mouse controls to place stickers, so give it a try!

Mario Kart World is available now for Switch 2.
