Mario Kart Tour Kicks Off New Year’s Tour In 2020
Mario Kart Tour will kick off 2020 with the New Year’s Tour, introducing four new characters and a tweaked track.
Launched in September, Mario Kart Tour was Apple’s most-downloaded free iPhone game, topping the likes of Call of Duty: Mobile and Fortnite. The mobile spinoff of Nintendo’s popular kart racing franchise, it was the company’s most successful mobile game launch ever.
Nintendo announced that the first tour of 2020 will actually arrive on January 1st. This Tour will run from the 1st to the 15th January and will bring a whole host of new cups to test your Mario Karting skills in. It’s aptly named the “New Year’s Tour.”
There will also be a daily log-in bonus that will net players 5 rubies each day, up to a grand total of 50.
As with each new tour, you will be able to unlock several tour gifts in the Mario Kart Tour version of the battle pass. This time around this will include a new glider, kart and Iggy, one of the Koopalings. If you’re a Gold Pass subscriber you’ll also have a chance of getting a Gold Koopa (Freerunning) for your gift as well as a gold kart and glider.
There’s also a new character added to the spotlight pipe that you can attempt to grab from the gacha machine. This will be another Mario variant known as Happi Mario where his special item will be the Bob-omb Cannon. There will also be a new kart called the Quickshaw and a glider called the New Year’s Kite.
After a rocky start for Mario Kart Tour, it certainly seemed to finish last year strongly and with real-time multiplayer on its way following a beta test for Gold Pass members, it could also perform well in 2020 as well.
