Summary
No Man’s Skydoesa lotof things right. Player freedom and exploration are right at the top of that list, but allowing for creativity isn’t far behind it. The release of theWorlds Part 1 updatehas exemplified this, withmajor changes to basesand thecreation of a citythat wouldn’t look out of place inCyberpunk 2077.
The latest player creation mayjusttop that, though. Asshared on Reddit, somebody has created a full-sizedMario Kart-style racetrack that actually works.
Princess Beach’s Castle Course
Created byPleasant-Disaster87, Princess Beach’s Castle, a play on Mario’sPeach’s Castle, is a track that wouldn’t look out of place in Mario Kart.
Set on a beach, hence the name, the player created a full replica of Peach’s Castle with a racetrack that runs around it. The version of Peach’s castle on its own is great, but the racecourse looks like a genuinely fun time.
Coming close to the 3000-part limit and complete with jumps, speed boosts, perilous corners, and a runway through the castle, the track is available for players to visit atthe following location.
And, while the build itself is phenomenal, props have to be given to the level of detail in the video showing it off. A full shot of the course, followed by different angles of the track and landscapes, makes it look like the start of every single Mario Kart race.
Rave Reviews
Since its release, players have already flooded Princess Beach’s Castle, giving it rave reviews.
One player shared that the track is “definitely worth a visit”, adding that visitors should “bring some friends to race.”
The course was also met with dozens of other compliments, with the OP hanging aroundoffering free Vulturesto anybody who visits.

WHERE TO PLAY
Lose yourself in a vast sci-fi odyssey as you explore a near-infinite, procedurally generated universe.
Set out from the edge of the Euclid galaxy and carve out your own interstellar existence in a vast universe teeming with life, danger and near-endless mystery.
No Man’s Sky is a hugely-ambitious, heavily-stylised, sci-fi adventure that spans entire galaxies all brought to life with procedural generation. Travel through an endless array of increasingly diverse and dangerous star systems, prospecting for rare materials, trading with alien life, populate planets and searching for clues to the meaning of the universe’s mysterious existence.
How you survive is up to you. Assemble entire fleets of dreadnought-class freighters and tear across the universe; build sprawling habitable bases across planet surfaces, beneath the ground or under the ocean; buy and upgrade your own weapons and star ships and do battle with outlaw space pirates, hostile alien fauna or the mysterious sentinel fleets.
The universe is yours to explore - trillions upon trillions of planets, waiting to be discovered.
