Posting on Twitter, Monolith said it had assisted with the design of characters and courses for the Switch 2 game.

Monolith, which is fully owned by Nintendo, has previously contributed to many first-party games, including the Splatoon, Animal Crossing, and Zelda series.

For the past 15 years, Monolith Soft has mainly been focused on development of the Xenoblade Chronicles series, though it was also responsible for the two Project X Zone crossover RPGs on the 3DS.

Mario Kart World is out today, alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 console. It's available as a standalone release, and as part of a bundle with the console.

No surprise

Best studio out there.

They should replace Game Freak for doing proper open world.

Nintendo really did a good job getting this company.

 

[PauloRoberto]

Can someone ask them to help Game Freak?

 

[Quartermuncher]

Hot damn.

Truly the GOATs.

 

[Punished Miku]

At this point, anything not in a linear corridor probably has them assisting on it.

 

[jshackles]

Cool cool cool

Now that this game is out, make a new JRPG please

 

[Hudo]

It seems buying Monolith Soft back then really paid off. They also assisted on the Zelda games.

Fuck Pokémon, I want to work on their own game.

 

[Mister Wolf]

They really found a home with Nintendo. Now where the hell are our Xenoblade Switch 2 updates?

 

[Metnut]

Let's hope there's no gacha item spawn mechanics and half baked MMORPG battle systems with multiple annoying systems in Mario Kart.

 

[Hideous Snake]

Fuck Pokémon, I want to work on their own game.

Oh yeah absolutely mate. After their own game

 

[pulicat]

Monolith Soft in their spare times
