Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will be full of new and old racers as Wave 2 of the Booster Course Pass launches later today on Switch!
Finally revealed last week after much fan speculation, Wave 2 brings eight more courses to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, in addition to the first eight that Wave 1 brought us back in March.
The update will drop at 15:00 BST today, so get ready to get back in the driver’s seat. No official time has been confirmed for other regions, but we suspect it will be roughly the same time across the board.

In case you forgot which courses are being added in Wave 2, well, we’ve got you covered:
- Cup of turnips
- New York Minute Tour (Mario Kart Tour)
- SNES Mario Circuit 3 (Super Mario Kart)
- N64 Kalimari Desert (Mario Kart 64)
- DS Waluigi Pinball (Mario Kart DS)
- Propeller cup
- Sydney Sprint Tour (Mario Kart Tour)
- GBA Snow Land (Mario Kart: Super Circuit)

Of particular note is the Propeller Cup’s final course, Sky-High Sundae, which is a brand new course. While the other seven returning tracks have already been added to the Mario Kart Tour mobile game, Sky-High Sundae is making its Deluxe debut before it hits your phones.
