Mario Kart Tour’s Holiday event will add Birdo and a festive Yoshi skin
Latest tour begins December 17
Mario Kart Tour’s Holiday event will start on December 17 at 10pm PT, Nintendo has confirmed.
The mobile racer’s third and final festive-themed event – following the Winter and London tours – will add special festive-themed skins for Yoshi and Pauline, as well as the Birdo character.
The recently released Santa Mario will continue to be available in Pipe uses until December 31.
DeNA recently released the version 1.2.0 update, which adds a new ticket screen, a drift button for certain control types, and a bonus for players who finish a race during a frenzy.
It’s also moved to fix issues preventing Android players from playing the game.
“Users who had already updated on Android devices to version 1.2.0 will be able to progress in the game once more after updating to version 1.2.1,” an in-game message said.
DeNA will hold a beta test for “real-time” Mario Kart Tour multiplayer in December. The beta test will be limited to subscribers of the game’s paid Gold Pass.
