More Mario Kart 8 DLC packs are on their way, based on last year's financial report for Nintendo. Overall, the Japanese company has been showing good performance both in sales for hardware as well as profit from fans' growing interest in the amiibos figures.
Part of this continued progress would be the likelihood of more downloadable content to come for Mario Kart 8. While the fiscal report is a lengthy read, there's a gist that will be good news for those who love Super Smash Brothers for Wii U and 3DS and the previously mentioned title.
The excerpt from the report, as written in iDigitalTimes, goes, "For 'Nintendo 3DS' and 'Wii U,' in addition to maintaining the performance of already-released titles with strong sales potential, new titles will continue to be introduced in order to further expand the installed bases. Specifically, by sequentially introducing additional download content for blockbuster titles such as 'Mario Kart 8' and 'Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U,' we aim to keep these titles played more actively."
It is clear from the passage that the two games will be given their respective surprises in due time. It should be noted that there were a few other games mentioned in the report which will be given attention as well.
Now, what the upcoming DLCs would bring is the next big question to find out the answer to. Considering the previous packs launched, there are a lot of possibilities such as new karts, courses, racers and even special game modes.
Crossovers for Mario Kart 8 are also very likely as there have already been downloadable content involving titles such as The Legend of Zelda, F-Zero, and Animal Crossing. There are even speculations that upcoming DLC might even go outside characters from Nintendo as was seen in Super Smash Bros.
It has been established from the latest fiscal report that new Mario Kart 8 DLC will be in the works. Gamers should keep a close eye on updates on what these contents would be and when they would be released.
