After four years of regular updates–a mixture of brand-new content and remastered classic tracks from games past–Nintendo has announced that Mario Kart Tour will no longer receive new content after its October 4 update.
The news was confirmed via an in-game message presented to all players upon logging in, which details the schedule for the next three in-game events, or “tours.” A small paragraph after the schedule confirms that, when the next Battle Tour begins, it will mark the end of the addition of new content for the game.

“From 10/04/2023 (Wed) on, tours will consist of content from tours that have appeared before,” the message reads. “No new courses, drivers, karts, or gliders will be added following the Battle Tour beginning 10/04/2023 (Wed). We hope you continue to enjoy playing Mario Kart Tour.”
