Mario Kart Tour to be released for iOS and Android at the end of September
After Super Mario Run and Dr Mario, the next game featuring Nintendo's plumber is being released for smartphones. Mario Kart Tour will be released on 25 September for iOS and Android.
Mario Kart has been one of Nintendo's most popular games across different generations of consoles. In future, you can also get annoyed on your smartphone when a turtle shell hits you just before the finish line.
Pre-registration now possible
In a tweet, Nintendo announced that the closed beta test phase has come to an end and that everyone can now pre-register for Mario Kart Tour for iOS or Android. Pre-registration or pre-ordering will ensure that you don't forget to start your first kart race on 25 September.
In addition to familiar tracks from Mario Kart, Mario Kart Tour also features race tracks inspired by real locations. Just like on the console, you can also collect and use items on your smartphone that give you an advantage or slow down your opponents. You can collect and upgrade the characters from the Nintendo universe, gliders and vehicles to be ready for the various tracks in different combinations.
When I was but a young student, I'd sit in my friend's living room with all my classmates and play on his SuperNES. Since then I've had the opportunity to test out all the newest technology for you. I've done reviews at Curved, Computer Bild and Netzwelt, and have now arrived at Galaxus.de.
