Mario Kart Tour will be making its final lap of new content releases starting October 4. New content includes courses, drivers, karts, and gliders. The Mario Kart mobile game will have three more tours scheduled from now until the end of October. The tours afterwards will feature returning content, marking the end of Mario Kart Tour’s free and consistent update schedule.
What’s left for Mario Kart Tour?
The three remaining tours for Mario Kart Tour are the Anniversary Tour (September 20), Battle Tour (October 4), and Halloween Tour (October 18). The Battle Tour will be the last one to feature new content while the Halloween Tour will feature returning content. The new remaining content is unknown as of right now but expect new tracks and characters to be added.
For a mobile game that’s had updates every two weeks, Mario Kart Tour fans can be happy the game survived this long and be this consistent. Tours will still happen in Mario Kart Tour but it will not be new content. Returning content will be rotated for Mario Kart Tour for the foreseeable future. The servers will not shut down, so new and old players can still enjoy Mario Kart Tour.
Remembering Mario Kart Tour
Many gamers forget that Nintendo is still early on in their mobile game catalog. Starting from Miitomo in 2016 to Mario Kart Tour in 2019, Nintendo have slowly been building their mobile game library for iOS and Android devices. Nintendo only has five games in total on app stores currently including Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, Fire Emblem Heroes, Mario Kart Tour, Super Mario Run and Pikmin Bloom.
None of the games have been able to hit the same heights as Mario Kart Tour. On launch day, Mario Kart Tour reached 20 million downloads globally, bigger than any previous Nintendo mobile game launch. The Mario Kart mobile game has had consistent updates for the past few years with new tours and Mii costumes. The latest tours are the Sundae Tour and the Summer Tour featuring new costumes and tracks.

It’s better to end on a high note now than running out of gas later on. The Battle Tour will end newly released content for Mario Kart Tour on October 4. What do you think of Mario Kart Tour ending?
