All The Nintendo Switch 2 Games You Can Preorder Now

Mario Kart World is the Switch 2’s marquee launch game, and chances are if you’re picking up the new console, you’re also interested in the open-world arcade racing game. You can preorder Mario Kart World in a couple ways. The first is as an $80 physical edition that’s available at Walmart, Target, GameStop, and Best Buy.

The other option is to track down the $500 Switch 2 bundle that includes a digital download code Mario Kart World. This bundle saves you $30 compared to purchasing the physical game for $80 along with the console for $450, which would total $530. If you’re planning to get both at launch, the bundle is the best option, but you’ll want to act fast. The bundle has been going in and out of stock online, while it will also be available for a few months after launch, it will be discontinued in Fall 2025, so keep an eye on Walmart, Target, GameStop, and Best Buy for any restock updates. Check our Switch 2 Preorder Guide for more information.
