Mario Kart Tour's Ha𝓀lloween Tour goes live around the world today. Here are the changes and additions players can expect to see.
Nintendo's foray into the mobile world over the past few years has been met with a variety of responses. Mario's mobile appearances tend to be packed to the gills with gacha rates and microtransactions. The complaints off the back 🌱of that may make it seem like Nin🍒tendo's mobile success has been minimal. However, some of the numbers beg to differ.
It has been a little more than a year since 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mario Kart Tour launched on mobile, an event marked 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:via the game's Anniversary tour. Harking back to the numbers, with 20 million downloads in its first week, more peo🌊ple had played Tour wi⛦thin seven days than had played Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in more than two years. Pretty impressive considering Deluxe remains the best-selling game in Nintendo Switch history 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:desp🍌ite Animal Crossing's best efforts.
As for what's nexౠt for Tour, that was revealed in all of its🐬 glory earlier today. When the game's two-week tours encompass a certain holiday, then it's normally safe to assume that will be the upcoming fortnight's theme. That's why the next two weeks will be centered around, yep you guessed it, Halloween. Get ready for pumpkins, witches, and the changing of the leaves as fall kicks into a higher gear.
All of that and more can be seen in the Halloween Tour launch trailer above. A pumpkin-headed Mario driving a pumpkin kart, as well as Witch Peach driving a bl🥂ack and purple kart that looks a little bit like the batmobil💛e. A solid gold King Boo can also be seen traversing the track around Twisted Mansion. That's not the most exciting addition during this tour, though.
That award goes to Maple Treeway. A track yet to have featured in Tour but will be very familiar to anyone who has played Mario Kart Wii. It also looks like Maple Treeway, along with the rest of Tour's tracks, will be littered with pumpkins for the next two weeks, so kee🍸p your wits about you. The Halloween Tour is live now and will come to an end in a little less than two weeks on November 3, 2020.
