There is no denial that
Mario Kart Tour, Nintendo's new free-to-start that released last year for mobile devices, has had a great reception amongst iOS and Android users; having been downloaded over
20 million times within a day after it released.
Not only did
Mario Kart Tour manage to be downloaded over 20 million times on launch day, but it has also been reported that Nintendo's racing mobile game is also their fastest-ever game launch on mobile devices with over an overwhelming
90 million downloads as of October of last year; a mere two weeks after the game became available, no less.
The fact that it is a free-to-start game has obviously helped with those downloads, but some players also enjoy the content that Nintendo has been adding to the game — particularly those that come as part of special events like Christmas, and New Year's, to name a few.
On that note,
Mario Kart Tour's Ice Tour has just become available today, and its bringing with it the classic Frappe Snowland race track from
Mario Kart 64, as well as Penguin Suit Luigi, Peach(Wintertime), and their respective karts — as Nintendo decides to fully embrace the winter season.
