I wasn't expecting much more than what we saw.
I don't remember if I felt a significant difference between how Mario Kart Wii looked compared to 8 off the top of my head, aside from the hover theme. But there's no visible gimick here yet. Just regular racing. So maybe that's part of why it doesn't feel like it stands out? |
Maybe. Personally, I did notice a bigger jump from MK Wii to MK8 than what we're seeing here. But this was very brief and like someone else mentioned, once we see more of MK9 and in DLSS 4K with 24 racers on screen going nuts I'll probably change my tune. Probably just first impression stuff.
Still incredibly excited for the game though, don't get me wrong. Mario Kart is one of my favorite IPs of all time and I do love that it was what was showcased as the first title debuted for the new system.
