Ride wherever your heart takes you
Drive as you wish in any direction in this new mode. Explore the seemingly endless roads and open oceans that go beyond the race courses. You can even snap some in-game pics at scenic spots.
So much to discover!
If you spot a P Switch out in the world, drive into it to start a mission! Take on hundreds of these missions that help improve your driving skills outside of races.
Make sure to also be on the lookout for Coins, ? Panels, and Peach Medallions hidden around.
Snap souvenir pics from all over the world
Take photos whenever you'd like in Free Roam. Rotate the camera, strike a pose, and even add other fun effects. Use the Nintendo Switch mobile app* to share your shots with friends!
