Mario Kart 8 Deluxe gets its biggest update today since the kart racing game launched onNintendo Switchway back in April 2017.
Right now, Nintendo has rolled out the first wave of new courses available as part of the new Mario Kart 8 DeluxeBooster Course Pass. Announced during the latestNintendo Directin February, 48 new tracks will be released in six waves sometime between now and the end of 2023 with the first eight now live and ready for racing.
Once all of the DLC has been added, it will double the number of tracks to a whopping 96. Just an insane offer. Nintendo may have its issues but when it does DLC, it does it right. The courses selected are being remastered from different Mario Kart games throughout its 30-year history. I’m personally hoping for DK Mountain from Mario Kart: Double Dash.

The first wave of courses included in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass are as below:
Golden Dash Cup
Lucky Cat Cup
To give you a taster of the courses in action, check out the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass trailer:
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC is available to pick up at the price of $24.99 / £22.49 via the Nintendo eShop, or alternatively you can get the DLC included as part of the Nintendo Switch OnlineExpansion Pass. With this, you also get N64 titles and new Animal Crossing thrown in, so it’s really a no-brainer as to which to go for.
There’s currently a great offer available at ShopTo thatslashes 30% off the asking price, something well worth considering as well.
