How to Unlock All Mario Kart World Characters

mario-kart-world-unlocks-characters

There are eighteen unlockable characters in Mario Kart World. Seven require players to play through a particular cup in Grand Prix mode, while the other eleven are tied to Kamek's Transformational Power. Unfortunately, there's no way to guarantee which characters will be unlocked when triggering the latter, meaning that it can take quite a while to get everyone. That said, there are a few things that players can do to increase the chances of getting the Kamek item in Mario Kart World characters, which can really help to speed up the process.

How to Unlock All Mario Kart World Costumes

mario-kart-world-unlocks-outfits

There are 103 unlockable outfits in Mario Kart World, all of which are acquired by consuming food and beverages from Yoshi's Diners. Certain costumes can be unlocked by eating a few different types of food, although, in the interest of keeping things simple, we're only focusing on one item per outfit and have grouped them together by the location in which that food or drink can be found in free roam mode. After consuming the item with one character, they can quickly change to the next character, then move on to the next diner once they reach the bottom of the list.

How to Unlock All Mario Kart World Karts

mario-kart-world-unlocks-karts

For every 100 coins that they collect, Mario Kart World players will unlock a new kart. Unfortunately, the kart that they get is chosen at random, meaning those who want a specific kart will just need to keep collecting coins until they get it, or have unlocked them all. There are 30 unlockable karts in total, meaning players will need a total of 3,000 coins to collect them all. This may seem like a lot, but thanks to this Mario Kart World coin farming method, players can get all of the unlockable karts in under an hour.

Collect 100 coins in races or free roam mode (kart selected at random).
