Here he comes and there he goes.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe version 1.6 has arrived and comes with lots of goodies from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The update will add Link in his Champion’s Tunic, motorcycle, tires, and more. Here’s the detail list of additions and changes to the latest version of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe:

• New character added: Link (Champion’s Tunic)
• New vehicle added: Master Cycle Zero
• New tires added: Ancient Tires
• New glider added: Paraglider
• Update includes revisions to improve gameplay, as well as some content not listed here.

Could this be the update Shinya Takahashi mentioned not long ago? Either way, this is great to see that Nintendo still continues to update their older titles.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is available for the Nintendo Switch.
