In January of last year, Nintendo announced that they were working on a brand-new entry in the
Mario Kart series, which was expected to be releasing on iOS and Android devices at some point in the future.
Nintendo then confirmed that
Mario Kart Tour would be releasing on the
25th of September — which is, in fact, tomorrow — and since we're just a day away from the game's launch, Nintendo has released a new trailer for the game that tells us everything we need to know about it.
While
Mario Kart Tour is a
Mario Kart title through and through, there are things that will set this game apart from other games in the series; one of them is the controls, which allow players to play the game using only one hand; making driving a breeze.
Players will also be able to collect drivers, karts, and gliders that will allow them tu customize their vehicles. These collectibles can be earned by earning Tour Gifts or collecting them from the Pipe. This is where microtransactions come into place, which is expected from a mobile game; fans may find this aspect a bit disappointing, though.
Check it out:
Put the pedal to the metal in courses inspired by real-world locations as well as Mario Kart series favorites. Put powerful items to use as you tear up the track and go for a high score!

Mario Kart Tour will be available for iOS and Android devices on the 25th of September.
