Nintendo Reveals Surprise New Metroid Game for 2027

Nintendo has announced a Mario Kart World update that will introduce classic Super Nintendo tracks, Knockout Tour courses, and more to the game later today. The update, which will be available as a free download, includes 10 classic courses from Super Mario Kart, such as Choco Island, Vanilla Lake, and Ghost Valley. These courses feature old-school item tiles instead of the newer floating boxes.

Additionally, the update introduces two new Knockout Tour routes, Propeller Rally and Turnip Rally, as well as a Spectator Mode for playing with friends online or via LAN Play. While there are no new playable characters or outfits in the update, the addition of these classic tracks is sure to be a welcome surprise for players who have been eager for new content since the game's launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 last summer. The update can be downloaded at the link provided in the announcement.
