We're almost sad to see Mario Kart Tour's Berlin Tour wrap up. After all, it's forever blessed us with Lederhosen Luigi, as Nintendo made him the star character of that event. That will finish later today, but immediately after it wraps up, the upcoming Cat Tour is planned to go live.

We've not had many details about this new event so far, but considering Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury launches on Switch next month, we could be led to assume it ties into that release. All we know is that Nintendo is teasing the addition of a "purrticularly cute driver".

It's not been confirmed who the mysterious character is just yet, but we suspect it would be Cat Peach. Let's not forget she made her karting debut back in Mario Kart 8, so a return would be likely.

The Cat Tour starts today in the US at 10:00pm PT but UK players won't get it until tomorrow morning, going live at 6am GMT.

Will you be jumping in for this event? Let us know how you've found Tour so far in the comments.
