Ever since the teaser trailer for Mario Kart World was released, cows have been attracting a lot of attention.

Masayoshi Ishikawa, art director for Mario Kart World, revealed in an official Nintendo interview segment, ' We Asked the Developers ,' that a single sketch drawn by a designer was the catalyst for the cow becoming a driver.

Below is the sketch.



In Mario Kart World, you can eat food while traveling the world, and you can even eat hamburgers while controlling a cow. Moreover, because cows love hamburgers, some people call cows 'kin eaters' and others say that 'Mario Kart's hamburgers use alternative meat,' GameSpot points out.




In addition, Mitsuru Yabuki, producer of Mario Kart World, said in an interview with overseas media about the public reaction to new drivers such as the cow, 'I didn't expect there to be such a big reaction.'
