November 13
The Mario Kart 8 DLC that adds Link, Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach, and new vehicles and courses — including ones based on F-Zero and Excitebike — will be out on Thursday, November 13.
The add-on will cost $7.99 if you buy it standalone, or $11.99 when bundled with the second DLC pack, which hits in May. Nintendo also detailed how amiibo figures will work with Mario Kart 8: for each (supported) toy you scan in, you’ll get a corresponding outfit for your Mii.
Look at that Captain Falcon!
