Mario Kart Tour's latest tour - Mario Vs. Luigi - is about to wrap up. But where one tour ends, another begins. This time, the game will be celebrating its third anniversary on September 25th with the 'Anniversary Tour' - very fitting, indeed!
Announced via Twitter, as usual, the tour will kick off on 20th September at 11pm PT / 21st September at 8am CEST and will have racers competing in several city race tracks. It will feature new racer and kart elements, but the long-standing Kangaroo version of Yoshi takes centre stage with the new trailer; we don't blame it - it looks just adorable.
Additionally, to go along with the new tour, there will be another wave of Mii Racing Suits - this time, fans will be getting the Brick Mii Racing Suit and the White Mii Racing Suit. Not the most imaginative we've seen, granted, but we'll take it.
Just recently, it was confirmed that Mario Kart Tour will be removing its 'gacha' elements in favour of something called 'Spotlight Shop'. Previously, this was arguably one of the main sticking points for Mario Kart fans looking to dive in, so hopefully its removal will persuade a few more people to give it a shot (it really is quite decent, you know!).

When's Mario Kart Tour coming to the 3DS™ and Wii® U™?
Kangaroo Yoshi’s been in tour for ages. That white mii suit though… The Stig is now an official MK racer!
@Drew250 Spot on, thanks for keeping me honest!
Happy 3rd aniversary MKT.
@Drew250 Now we officially know what he looked like inside the mask...
...8 years ago as that Mii costume was in Mario Kart 8.
kangaroo yoshi is one of the best drivers in the game, hope he is gonna be kinda attainable. but then he's worthless anyway if they're giving him away too easily 😅
Nothing says "Anniversary Celebration" quite like dressing your Mii up like a building...or a colour
I get the business aspect of this, but I really hate what Nintendo has done with this franchise. DLC is fun for about a week and then mobile game gets all the love and extras….
Now we need Cranky Kong, K.Rool and long awaited DK alt, as well as Diddy alt. Not just the Mii suits, but nice high-end alts.
@DarkFighter eh heavywheight coinboxers r the best but he looks cool
@BASEDSAKRI his coverage is amazing tho, lots of mostly-paywalled tracks!
