The Mario Kart series has been around for a long time, and over that period of time, it has become one of Nintendo’s best-selling franchises. With many installments in the Mario Kart series, the number of courses available for players to race across is long. Recently, a pair of gamers decided to remake one of these classic tracks in another popular game, Minecraft.
Taking to Reddit, a user known as ScurrMinatorYT shared a video of a recent creation they had made in Minecraft based on the Mario Kart series. In particular, they had decided to recreate Mushroom Gorge from Mario Kart Wii. With the help of a friend, Dizzylake, the Reddit user managed to remake the entire classic track inside a Minecraft world, and the results did not disappoint.
In a one-minute and five-second video, ScurrMinatorYT took gamers on a tour of their recreation of Mushroom Gorge from Mario Kart Wii. The Reddit user and their friend, Dizzylake, had impressively captured many details that made the original track famous. Some highlights included the many giant mushrooms sprouting around the course. Along with these mushrooms, the video revealed that the gamers had managed to recreate the large cave seen on the racetrack, complete with many beautifully colored blocks. In addition, ScurrMinatorYT revealed that their remake of Mushroom Gorge could be used for actual ice boat races in Minecraft as they had retextured ice to make it looks like a dirt road.
Since posting this incredible remake of Mushroom Gorge on Reddit, many members of the Minecraft community have taken notice. In fact, the post has already managed to gain several thousand upvotes on the platform. Among the comments, many gamers complimented the builders on their hard work, with one gamer saying it must have taken a long time to complete the project. In addition, ScurrMinatorYT provided a download code for the course for those wanting to try it out. However, they noted that it was only playable for the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft.
Interestingly, this is not the only recent news regarding Mushroom Gorge. In addition to this playable ice boat racetrack in Minecraft, Mushroom Gorge was recently added to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. As part of the second wave of the Booster Course Pass DLC, it was bundled with seven other courses from other Mario Kart installments.
While this recreation of Mushroom Gorge by ScurrMinatorYT and Dizzylake is doubtlessly impressive, it is not the only Mario Kart course to be remade in Minecraft. A few months ago, another talented gamer created Coconut Mall, another classic track from Mario Kart Wii, with escalators and palm trees. It will be interesting to see if creators like ScurrMinatorYT decide to make even more courses from Mario Kart Wii or any other installments in the racing series.
Minecraft is available on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
