If you feel you have conquered all the curves, drifts and shortcuts of Mario Kart World, then get ready to see them flipped upside down like hand standing down stairs. This fan-favorite challenge turns everything, literally upside down, sending even the most experienced racers into a tailspin.
Far from being some gimmicky other world experience, Mirror Mode is a brutal gauntlet of muscle memory, flexibility and reflexes that function in a high speed environment.
A Unfamiliar World, Upside Down
Mirror Mode isn’t exactly a new feature to the Mario Kart franchise. Originally debuted in Mario Kart 64, the plugin has returned in almost every game since Double Dash!! Its introduction into the arena of Mario Kart World comes with new wrinkles and added layers of complexity.Instead of making the game faster, similar to the introduction of 150cc from 100cc, Mirror Mode takes the existing tracks and mirrors them horizontally—left becomes right, right becomes left. Each circuit configuration is flipped, and even muscle memory turns into your foe.
How to unlock Mirror Mode in Mario Kart World?
How to Access Mirror Mode
Gaining access to Mirror Mode is not an easy task. Read on to learn about our recent initiatives and at a minimum, what you’ll need to implement them.
- P Switch Missions, found all over the game’s huge free roam areas. Finish all 40 of them!
- Complete the Special Cup, which in turn requires unlocking and completing seven other Grand Prix cups.
Many players have even said they need to fulfill extra requirements, such as unlocking other characters, obtaining a certain number of Peach Medallions, or achieving three stars on all Knockout Tour courses, so you should assume the requirements are cumulative. Mirror Mode, which inverts tracks to create a new challenge, is the game’s method of rewarding completionists and serious racers.
Modes Supported by Mirror Madness
Once unlocked, Mirror Mode isn’t just for Grand Prix. It seeps into almost every game mode, too:
- Selectable during engine class selection. Provides players with a new way to earn 5-star rankings, independent of old-school 150cc course progression.
- With the very portal we made our way through Peach’s Kingdom, as one example, walk into one of these rainbow reflective portals to trigger a mirrored version of the free-roaming open world.
- A mirrored version of this already harsh mode doubles down on the difficulty. Each race in Mirror Mode counts toward your cumulative star rank, though.
- Looking to troll your friends? Private matches allow you to toggle Mirror Mode as well, even in casual settings.
