The popular game Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is all set to introduce its next Downloadable Content (DLC) on July 12th, available for the Booster Course Pass owners.

This new addition promises to inject some fresh excitement into the game, introducing eight brand new courses and four new characters, namely Birdo, Petey Piranha, Wiggler, and Kamek. Two new cups, namely the Feather Cup and Cherry Cup, will also become available for racing enthusiasts.

The Feather Cup will feature a mix of the new and the old. It will introduce a brand new track, the Squeaky Clean Sprint, set in a bathtub, and will also bring back some classic tracks from previous games such as Athens Dash from Mario Kart Tour, Daisy Cruiser from Mario Kart Double Dash, and Moonview Highway from Mario Kart Wii.

As for the Cherry Cup, gamers should gear up for a round of Los Angeles Laps and Vancouver Velocity from Mario Kart Tour, Sunset Wilds from Mario Kart Super Circuit, and Koopa Cape from Mario Kart Wii.

All of this exciting new content, tweeted out by Nintendo of Europe, has fans eagerly counting the days until the DLC release.
