Vampire Waluigi is making a comeback in Mario Kart World, and he’s playfully dubbed Wampire in the game. This stylish outfit first made its mark in Mario Kart Tour, and many would argue it’s the most striking ensemble ever seen in the series.
The folks at Outside Xtra got to try out this exciting Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive and unlocked the outfit themselves, sharing in our enthusiasm to see Waluigi back in action with his unique flair.
When you swing by Yoshi’s drive-thru, there’s a chance to snag a Dash Food item. Occasionally, these items will unlock outfits that you can select from the character screen, adding another layer of fun to your racing experience.
During the most recent Mario Kart World Direct, fans received an in-depth preview. This time, the course is crafted as a sprawling interconnected environment, a first for the series. So far, they’ve announced 50 playable characters, featuring beloved classic racers and some fresh faces to spice things up.
Mark your calendars for June 5, 2025, when Mario Kart World will be available both in stores and digitally on the Nintendo eShop, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch 2 globally.
