During the last Nintendo Direct, it was announced that one of the oldest Switch games will be getting a ton of DLC. 48 remastered tracks are set to roll out for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe over the course of the next two years. It’s a ton of great content for a game that continues to sell incredibly well. But if you can’t wait to hit the road in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, then you probably want to know when the Booster Course DLC goes live.
What Time Does Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC Go Live?
Before jumping into the specifics, it’s important to note that not all 48 tracks will be launched at the same time. The first roll-out of the Booster Course Pass DLC for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will include two cups: Golden Dash Cup and Lucky Cat Cup. Just like all of the other Grand Prix cups, each one will come with four different courses.
There are five more waves that currently don’t have release dates. So far, only the first wave has a set release date of Mar. 18, 2022. However, some places in the world may get access a little bit sooner than that.
As of right now, we don’t have any official release times from Nintendo with the exception of the AEDT time zone in Australia. The table below lists time conversions based on the AEDT release time.
It’s important to note again that only the Australian time is confirmed. It’s entirely possible that the DLC will go live in other regions closer to midnight local time on 3/18.
That’s all we know about what time the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC goes live. Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers will receive the DLC at no additional charge. The entire bundle of 48 courses can also be pre-ordered or purchased (on Mar. 18) for $24.99 from the Nintendo eShop.
