You’ve invested countless hours in Mario Kart World, memorized every twist and turn, and even the 150cc class fails to get your adrenaline pumping anymore? Then we have just what you need!
Because buried deep within the game lies a challenge that will make even the most seasoned kart champions break a sweat: mirror mode! But what does it entail and, more importantly, how can you access it? We’ll guide you through the process step by step.
Unlocking Mirror Mode
Before delving into the unlocking process, a brief overview for beginners: Mirror Mode is precisely what it sounds like: It reverses all the tracks you think you’re familiar with horizontally. A sharp right turn suddenly turns into a left turn, and the shortcut you used to take without a second thought is now on the opposite side.
Yet, the journey to unlock this mode isn’t a stroll through the park; it necessitates that you excel in a significant portion of the game. The community has yet to fully agree on the exact requirements, but a clear route has surfaced that consistently leads to success.
Here are the necessary steps:
- Finish all cups: You must finish all seven Grand Prix cups and all eight Knockout Tours at least once. Most players advise completing this in the 150cc class. Your ranking appears to be of little importance. The main requirement is that you’ve experienced every race at least once.
- Collect thoroughly in the overworld: The most challenging aspect involves the collectibles in the
Free Ride
mode. There are slightly varying accounts on this, but the most frequent method is as follows:- Locate ten Peach Medals
- Activate ten ? plates
- Complete ten P-Switch missions
- The final step: Once you’ve accomplished all of the preceding tasks, there’s just one more step remaining. Race through the Special Cup again in 150cc mode. If all requirements have been satisfied, a message will pop up once the credits conclude, congratulating you on accessing Mirror Mode.
Following that, the new mode will be accessible in Grand Prix, Knockout Tour, and Versus mode.
Bonus tip: Mirror mode in outdoor driving
The expansive overworld in Mario Kart World can also be mirrored, though it operates a bit differently here. Drive to Peach Stadium and head to the castle’s roof. There you will encounter the large stained glass windows depicting Peach. Now just drive through one of these windows. After a brief animation, you will find yourself in a mirrored world.
However, this effect isn’t permanent. If you exit the game or drive through the window again, the world will revert to its original state.
