Mario Kart 8 Deluxe new characters

In the flood of news this week stemming from the latest Nintendo Direct, something fans may have missed is that the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC will be adding even more returning characters in the future.

For the first three waves, only new tracks were added. However, for the fourth round, Nintendo announced that Birdo is on the way. Confirmation of even more characters were confirmed in the Nintendo Direct recap we posted, but that was something may probably missed. We should be seeing at least two more roster additions later in 2023.

The fourth round of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass is scheduled for this spring. Yoshi’s Island, an entirely new track, has thus far been announced.

It’s been a little bit of a wild ride for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as of late. Some were definitely taken surprise that Nintendo decided to introduce DLC for the game years after its initial launch. The support didn’t stop there though, as we even saw a substantial free update a few months ago that introduced a Custom Items feature.
