Mario Kart World is set to go all in with its incredible roster of characters from Nintendo’s Mario franchise. Mario Kart World has over 50 racers to choose from, with the popular main cast and some truly obscure background villains featured in the series, so players will want to check in below to see who made it on the Mario Kart World roster to determine their new main character.
Every Mario Kart Game, Ranked
With over 30 years of Mario Kart fun, it's time to look back at the best Mario Kart games and rank every Mario Kart game so far.
While some might prefer the classics of Mario and Luigi, Mario Kart World provides a place for everyone to get behind the wheel, even if the cow from Moo Moo Meadows isn’t exactly the safest choice for a racer. Players can find all 50 racers in Mario Kart World below, in alphabetical order:
50 Baby Daisy
The Baby Version of Princess Daisy
Baby Daisy returns for yet another appearance, with both her crown and her binky to ensure that she's the fastest racer on the course. Despite her age, it seems nothing will slow down Daisy's competitive spirit.
49 Baby Luigi
Mario's Scared Younger Brother
Baby Luigi once again takes a spin behind the wheel, making yet another appearance after his debut in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Back in 2003. If players thought Luigi wasn't brave, then they have yet to see how a younger version of him is scared of even holding the wheel.
48 Baby Mario
The Protagonist of the Series Goes Baby Mode
Far smaller than Mario, and without the mustache or experience in plumbing, Baby Mario drifts through the races of Mario Kart as the leading character, albeit one far younger and inexperienced, but never without confidence.
47 Baby Peach
The Smallest Princess of the Toad Kingdom
Even as a baby, Princess Peach's responsibilities are vast. Peach must look after the Toads, but it seems like the baby version has more pressing matters to attend to, like drifting around other racers.
46 Baby Rosalina
The Latest Baby Variant
Baby Rosalina is the last of the baby variants for the main hero cast, and she returns once more after her first appearance in Mario Kart 8 in 2014, 11 years later.
45 Birdo
An Egg Spitting Villain
It seems that Birdo is willing to play nice and not spit eggs at Mario when it means she gets a rare invite to race, which is something she has only done recently, thanks to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's Booster Course Pass.
44 Bowser
The Iconic Villain Burns the Competition
It's impossible to have a Mario Kart game without Bowser behind the wheel, providing the villain with an opportunity to impress Princess Peach with his driving and torment Mario by throwing an abundance of Red Shells exclusively for him.
43 Bowser Jr.
The Son of Bowser Hates Mario But Loves the Races
While Bowser Jr. Is often seen in his propeller ship, it seems he's happy to put wheels on the ground when he gets his invite, which is why he's racing alongside his dear old dad for another go at Mario Kart.
42 Cataquack
A Squacking Obstacle Turned Racer
The Cataquacks are often associated with mindless chaos because they will disrupt players by trying to run into them, but it seems the Cataquack has left its villainous tendencies behind to become a racer for the first time.
41 Chargin’ Chuck
A Large Koopa in a Football Outfit
The seemingly larger variants of the Koopas, Chargin' Chuck, squeeze into a kart for an opportunity to charge through the competition in a sport that isn't football.
