Remember how the Japanese accessory maker HORI released racing wheels that were compatible with the Switch title Mario Kart 8 Deluxe? Well, a Mario Kart World ‘Deluxe’ model and ‘Mini’ model will be released later this month for the Switch 2.

According to online retailer listings, both of these wheels will go on sale on 23rd March 2026. The Deluxe model will be around $130 USD and the Mini model will set you back $80 USD (or your regional equivalent), with pre-orders now available.

While they might not look much different to the Switch versions, which are already compatible with the Switch 2, these slightly updated wheels now have a ‘C’ button for GameChat (previously the ‘assign’ button on the existing models). There are also Mario Kart World logos included on each wheel!

Here’s the description of the Deluxe and Mini, along with a look:
