Mario Kart World

A Nintendo Switch 2 racing game developed by Nintendo EPD featuring Mario Kart characters, vehicles, and tracks.

An experimental unofficial Mac port via NxNative has upstream-reported Mac testing. Testing documented the title screen, menus, character/kart selection, and a Grand Prix race in the Mushroom Cup on Mario Bros. Circuit at 50cc on M1 Pro, M4 Pro, M4 Max, and M6 Apple Silicon chips. Full game reliability is unverified. Current unresolved issues include first-use pipeline stutters, ignored variable rate shading, and unimplemented mesh/task shaders. Long-term stability remains open for investigation. Requires Apple silicon and macOS 26.6 or later. Not an official Mac release.
