Nintendo released an update for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for Nintendo Switch today that adds a new playable character: Link, wearing the Champion’s Tunic, from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
In addition to Link, the version 1.6.0 patch for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe also adds the Master Cycle Zero, the motorcycle that was added to Breath of the Wild in 2017 as part of that game’s Champions’ Ballad downloadable content. Rounding out the new content are a set of new tires, called Ancient Tires, and a new glider, based on Breath of the Wild ’s paraglider.
The update also includes unspecified “revisions to improve gameplay,” as well as some unlisted content, according to Nintendo’s support website .
