The first wave of Booster Course Pass DLC is live in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe alongside a new update. The update doesn’t reveal any new fixes or improvements to the Nintendo Switch game, because there is none. In other words, there aren’t official patch notes for the update, but there is a list of all the new content it adds, or, more specifically, all the new courses, which there are eight of. The Booster Course Pass is adding a total of 48 remastered tracks, which will be released in waves through “the end of 2023.”
For the first wave, eight tracks have been added across the Golden Dash Cup and the Lucky Cat Cup. And as relayed yesterday, these tracks come with some unexpected improvements, or at least Coconut Mall from Mario Kart Wii does. For now, it remains to be seen if the other courses got the same touch up as fan-favorite Coconut Mal..
