Forum » Chew The Fat » New Mario Kart 8 DLC announced
Benjanime
With the Mercedez Benz Mario Kart 8 DLC that recently hit the eShop, two DLC preorders came in today. The packs are said to include two cups with four tracks each, Tanooki suit Mario and Cat suit Peach, the Villager and Isabelle from Animal Crossing, Link, Dry Bowser, and some new karts, including an F-Zero machine. There's also a bundle pack, but if you buy the two separately you'll unlock a feature that will already be up for use, Yoshi and Shy Guy with a total of eight skin colors to choose from. The two DLC packs are $7.99 individually, while the bundle is $11.99.


                                          

The first DLC pack is supposed to release in November of this year, while the second won't be out until May of next year.

Some nice additions. That should appease some fans until Smash Bros. hits shelves.

That's if that tweet from Sakurai doesn't come into fruition.

If there was one thing I've always wanted to see Mario Kart do, is expand the roster beyond just Mario characters, and add characters from other games, such as Nintendo's other franchises. They did do that with the Mario Kart Arcade GP series by adding characters from Pac-Man and Tamagatchi. It seems that this DLC would do just that. It also helps that Namco Bandi helped develop Mario Kart 8, so adding in elements that made me enjoy the arcade titles is one of the things that helps the series for me.

This is awesome, I didn't know they were releasing a DLC for MK8. I'm definitely going to get it for the kids, they love the game already, and have started their school year off good.

I'm happy for the DLC, but the Mercedes promo is just ridiculous. I'm not sure who Mercedes is advertising to, and I hate seeing the real world invade the Mario world.

Some non-Nintendo character editions would have made for some nice DLC.

with the new super smash bros. game having mega man and pac-man, you never know if there's more DLC on the way.... even though the second DLC pack won't release until next november. but since namco collaborated to make a mario kart arcade game a long time ago, it could happen! sega all-stars racing had wreck-it-ralph, but i think that was sega's way of saying to disney "hey since you guys wanted sonic in your movie, how 'bout we have our part of the bargain with ralph in our upcoming game?"
