How to unlock mirror mode in Mario Kart world
Blog Andrew Joseph 09 Jun , 2025 0

Mario Karting World Switch 2 is finally in the hands of people, and the new Mario Kart game has a lot of money to make. One of these unlockables is a mode returned from the previous game's “mirror” mode, where you can race through the mirrored version of the Mario Kart world, providing a new perspective and another way to play. Although the Mario Kart community has not communicated the requirement to unlock this model, the community has worked together to narrow it down.
How to unlock mirror mode

To unlock mirror mode, you will need to do some work as this requires you to play all the cups – including special unlockables, where features Rainbow Road– In the circuit and knockout rounds, besides winning some rewards in free roaming mode.
The Mario Kart community does not convey what you have or have not done to unlock this mode, so make sure you meet the following requirements that have been partially confirmed by some members of the community, thank you reddit.
Mirror mode unlocking requirements:
- Complete all Grand Prix Cups on 150cc
- Complete all Knockout Cups on 150cc
- Complete at least 10 tasks (P switch in free roaming)
- Receive at least 10 Peach Medals in Free Roaming
- Get at least 10 question panels in free roaming
With all these requirements in mind, you will need to finish the special cup again and you should play a new cutscene after points. It seems you don't need to finish a special cup on 150cc again to trigger the cutscene, but it's worth playing it at this speed in the beginning.
Since the Mario Kart world won't show you what you're missing, you need to be thorough and thorough. Make sure to click on each cup in the Grand Prix and Knockout to verify that you did it on 150cc. The comments seem to be mixed with whether you need to calculate it in either mode, but if you see a checkmark next to 150cc instead of the trophy, you should play again until you get the trophy. There may also be some coin and driving distance requirements, but it is not yet clear. So if you are active, all of the above requirements are met and mirror mode won't unlock, keep free roaming, collect coins and complete smaller tasks.
You have to complete the special cup again to achieve unlocking, which is the only way to trigger unlocking cutscenes after meeting the requirements.
