That's more than enough new content to keep fans going until Mario Kart 9 is announced. Fans should still be excited, however, as the Booster Pass is adding 48 remastered courses from Super Nintendo, GameBoy Advance, Gamecube, N64, DS, Wii, 3DS, and Mario Kart Tour versions of the game. Some Nintendo fans are probably disappointed that the announcement wasn't Mario Kart 9, but 8 has been one of the bestselling Switch games of all time, so it's not surprising that a new game isn't coming out just yet. Nintendo revealed during its February 2022 Direct that Mario Kart 8 will be receiving a huge DLC update with the Booster Course Pass.
