'Mario Kart' will have a new circuit set in Madrid

Madrid will be one of the new settings for the Mario Kart Tour mobile game. Nintendo has published the first trailer of one of the new circuits that will arrive shortly in this popular video game and, although the representation of the city is unique, settings such as the Plaza Mayor, the Puerta de Alcalá or the Retiro park are clearly identified. .

For days there had been speculation about the arrival of this new location in the racing game, some rumors that the Japanese company has put an end to after publishing a fun illustration of Mario and Luigi tasting typically Spanish dishes (paella, churros and ham), as well as the trailer that can be seen below.

The new circuit inspired by Madrid will be part of the "Summer Tour" downloadable content package, which will be available worldwide from August 23rd.

In addition to the emblematic places mentioned, the trailer for the new circuit has been dissected by fans on social networks and other locations in the city have been located, such as the Almudena cathedral, the Atocha station or the Crystal Palace. All of this without forgetting billboards advertising anything from “torrijas y churros” to a “tablao”.

Mario Kart Tour is the version for mobile devices (iOS and Android) of the popular Mario Kart franchise. The game is free, although it has optional micropayments within the application. This title was released in September 2019 and is one of Nintendo's biggest successes in the competitive field of mobile games.
