Mario Kart Tour was released on September 25 to mixed reviews. While users praised some aspects, like the addition of new characters and courses, many were critical of the games control system and ridiculous monthly subscription price. Unfortunately, Nintendo has not addressed these big concerns in this update; and so far there appear to be no plans to change these highly divisive aspects of the game.

Despite the criticism, the mobile adaptation has done very well so far. Within the first few days of release, it was reported that the game had been downloaded by more than 20 million users, surpassing the number of Mario Kart 8 copies sold, which is the highest-selling console game in the entire Mario Kart franchise.

Mario Kart Tour is currently available for iOS and Android devices.
