Nintendo Ending Mario Kart Tour Content Add-Ons

Nintendo will no longer release new content for mobile game Mario Kart Tour starting October 4.

As shared by ResetEra user Poltergust, Nintendo quietly announced the end of new content in an in-game update after a list of upcoming tours.

"From October 4 on, tours will consist of content from tours that have appeared before," the post reads. "No new courses, drivers, karts, or gliders will be added following the Battle Tour starting October 4. We hope you continue to enjoy playing Mario Kart Tour."

Nintendo therefore made clear this isn't the end of Mario Kart Tour, as it will continue to support the game with tour events going forward and won't shut down servers. All incoming content will have been available in the game previously, however, meaning there won't be anything new for players to experience or collect.

Mario Kart Tour launched in 2019 but seemingly failed to make waves as Nintendo was reportedly underwhelmed by its mobile game ventures that included Super Mario Run and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp alongside Mario Kart Tour.

In our 6/10 review, IGN said: "Nintendo is still struggling with how to make a great mobile game, but Mario Kart Tour’s racing is solid."
