The Mario Kart fandom is waiting for the next wave in its DLC, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass, for a long time. The first wave of the DLC released back in March, and fans are, since then, waiting for the next! Nintendo has broken a lot of its usual character this year, leading to a part of the fandom refusing to bank on leaks any further.

As announced by Nintendo, the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass is a DLC slated to release in 6 waves of 8 tracks each. Fans will receive a total of 48 downloadable tracks, 8 of which have released in the first wave of the DLC. The DLC tracks will be remastered courses from classic Mario Kart games.

It’s been 4 months since the first wave for the DLC released, and it’s high time Nintendo releases the second. With the company announcing a Mario Kart tournament scheduled to happen this week and next, many speculations regarding the second wave is in the air. In fact, the first wave also released just before a Mario Kart tournament.

Previous speculations had led to fans expecting a 15 July announcement/release of the second wave. However, that didn’t turn out to be true. On the other hand, a leaker claimed on July 14 that Nintendo will announce the much-anticipated wave on July 20 at 15:00 BST (7:00 PT).

Considering this as true, Mario Kart fans will soon get to experience 8 new DLC tracks for the game. The last wave costed players $24.99, and so, the upcoming one is expected to cost the same. Moreover, fans with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription can grab the wave at no additional cost!

All things considered, it is still a speculation, and fans may want to take it with a grain of salt to avoid disappointment. After all, Nintendo has adopted a pretty unpredictable pattern this year. However, it’s been a long time since the release of the first wave, and fans deserve the next by now.

According to Nintendo, all 6 waves of this DLC will be released by the end of 2023. So, fans will probably have to endure a wait time of 4 months between each wave.
