Nintendo has certain got plenty of mileage of Mario Kart 8. The gravity-defying racer was originally released back in 2014 on the humble Wii U, then got a “Deluxe” Switch re-release in 2017, ultimately selling a slightly ridiculous 65 million copies (and counting) in its near-decade on the market.

The first wave of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass launched back in March last year, and Nintendo is now finally ready to wrap things up for the kart racer. The sixth and final wave of DLC for the game was confirmed to be launching this Holiday, and now, Nintendo has released a specific release date for it.
Wave 6 of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass will launch a little over a week from now, on November 9, and like the five previous waves, it will also add eight new tracks to the game, all of which will be remade versions of tracks from previous Mario Kart titles.
Namely, those eight tracks are the previously confirmed Daisy Circuit from Mario Kart Wii, the Mario Kart Wii version of Rainbow Road, Mario Kart Tour’s Madrid Drive, Piranha Plant Cove, and Rome Avanti, Mario Kart 7’s Rosalina’s Ice World, Mario Kart: Double Dash’s DK Mountain, and Super Mario Kart’s Bowser Castle 3.
Additionally, Wave 6 will also add four new playable characters in Funky Kong, Diddy Kong, Pauline, and Peachette. All in all, the six waves of the Booster Course Pass will have collectively added 48 new tracks and eight new playable characters to the game.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is available on the Nintendo Switch. Recent reports have claimed that Nintendo will be bundling it with the Switch OLED later this month.
