Additionally, players will have the opportunity to race using four new karts exclusive to this campaign, further enriching the customization options in Mario Kart Tour. In an official statement, Nintendo emphasized its enthusiasm about bridging the mobile and console gaming experiences for Mario Kart fans.

The company highlighted that these cross-promotional efforts are designed to celebrate the vibrant Mario Kart community and to give players new incentives to engage with both Mario Kart Tour and the soon-to-be-released Mario Kart World on the Nintendo Switch 2 platform. Since debuting on the eShop, Nintendo Switch titles in the Mario Kart franchise have enjoyed strong sales and critical acclaim, helping to establish the Switch as a premier platform for casual and competitive racing games.

The integration of content between mobile and console ecosystems reinforces Nintendo’s position as an industry leader in innovative cross-platform gaming experiences.
