New Switch 2 ‘Mario Kart’ Game to Receive Major Updates, According to Rumor
A fresh rumor has popped up about the next Mario Kart game, expected to launch with the Nintendo Switch 2. The game was revealed nine days ago alongside the new console, but Nintendo has kept quiet about its name, release date, or what to expect. The few details we’ve seen so far have split opinions.
Right now, we don’t know when Nintendo will share official updates about the game. Many think the first Nintendo Switch 2 Direct on April 2 might be when we’ll hear more.
But before that, a rumor from Instagram account Mr.Nintendad has stirred up plenty of chatter. This account, with over 100,000 followers, claims the game might feature pit stops. Players could refuel their karts and change tires during races.
This would be a big addition to Mario Kart and might be part of a special mode, not the main gameplay. It sounds like it could be a ‘hardcore mode,’ adding a strategy layer to what’s usually a mix of skill and luck. It’s unlikely Nintendo would shake up the main formula too much, but this idea is already causing excitement and debate.
We have to remember this is just a rumor. Nintendo hasn’t commented, and they rarely respond to speculation. For now, we’ll just have to wait and see what they reveal. If anything changes, we’ll keep you in the loop!
