Mario Kart Tour has been globetrotting for a couple years now, driving through the likes of Tokyo, New York, and Paris with its (mustache) hairs in the wind. Now a new real world locale is on its itinerary, taking players all the way to the Netherlands. Get ready for windmills, tulips, and clogs; we’re heading to Amsterdam!
Now, naturally, there’s much more to this country and its capital city, but that’s definitely the vibe Mario Kart Tour is leaning into here. The new course and other additional content look to be blending the city with a traditional Dutch aesthetic, also seen in the new version of Rosalina. Who knew the queen of space would be so at home in Holland? Daisy’s along for the ride, too, going a little more rural and no less spunky than usual.
The previously teased Nabbit Mii Racing Suit is also confirmed and shared, giving Miis another (brand-new) outfit to sport around the tracks. The backwards bandana is definitely an interesting touch, but the real draw here is going to be the coveted Lucky 7 signature item. We also got a new tease, this time showing off Mii Racing Suits Wave 5. That helmet visor is looking a bit like Wario’s suit’s nose, but we won’t know for sure until the next announcement.
Both the Amsterdam Tour and Nabbit Racing Suit will arrive on April 19th at 11 p.m. PT. Whether this latest course makes its way to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pack or the newer Mii outfits sneak their way onto Switch remains to be seen.
