This new DLC, announced in the recent Nintendo Direct presentation, is set to debut this summer on the Nintendo Switch platform.
The Booster Course Pass Wave 5 will introduce a new course to the game, Squeaky Clean Sprint. In addition to the new track, three classic characters will return to the racing line-up. Fans will be thrilled to see the return of Petey Piranha, first seen in Mario Kart: Double Dash, Wiggler from Mario Kart 7, and Kamek from Mario Kart Tour. Each character is expected to bring unique attributes and skills to the race, contributing to the already dynamic and varied gameplay experience that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe offers.
