Ready for the signal in 3, 2, 1… Go! Mario Kart Tour will arrive on both iOS and Android on September 25. It's the next big game that Nintendo releases for mobile devices and we take it for granted that it's going to be a huge hit.
Mario Kart Tour for iOS and Android arrives on September 25
In February 2018 Nintendo announced that the next big title they would release for mobile devices would be Mario Kart Tour. A game that has already been tested in beta mode in some countries and by some lucky users. Now we know the official release date.
The next September 25 Prepare your kart because it will be when you will be able to compete in the fun kart races that Mario and the rest of the characters have been holding for several years now. Meanwhile, what you can do is reserve it through this app store link or of the Play Store if you use Android.
The game will be free, that is, you will not have to pay anything to start playing it. But as described in the notes, there will be small in-app purchases that will be optional. Another detail is that you will need an internet connection and will also require a Nintendo account. And what we like least, although it is partly understandable, is that there could be some publicity. Of course, it will not be anywhere near as annoying and intrusive as it can be seen and suffered in many free games.
For the rest, the title already looked good when it was announced but it is now confirmed. With good quality graphics and, above all, maintaining the essence of the game and Nintendo's own. Mario Kart Tour looks like a lot of fun. In addition, it retains all the attractions of other Mario Kart games, such as the possibility of unlocking cars and drivers, objects to throw and take advantages in races, etc.
The only thing that gives us some doubt: control. the game is designed to allow it to be played with just one finger. That is, acceleration, control, skidding,... everything could be done with one finger. This is not a bad idea, but if you have played on any of the Nintendo consoles, controlling all the driving possibilities was not easy. Therefore, let's see how Nintendo has solved it here, in the smartphone version of Mario Kart.
For now, the good news is that at the end of September you will be able to try it for yourself and assess how the adaptation is. Super Mario Run and Dr. Mario World They have not been bad adaptations, it is true that there are those who still expect something more from Nintendo and its proposals for smartphones, but you must also understand them: they want you to discover their titles if you have not already done so and then make the leap to their platforms .
