The fun racer Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is one of the absolute perennial favorites for the Nintendo console and was expanded with the first batch of DLC tracks in mid-March. So it was only a matter of time before Nintendo took its modern classic into account in the online service Switch Online – and does so in May with a whole series of user icons in the Mario Kart 8 design.

They should appear in several waves and during the month of May. This week we’re starting with a Mushroom Cup symbol and a Mario Kart icon, among other things, which you can then tinker with in your user pictures in the corresponding menu. The range of icons should then change every week. The view shows Toad in racing overalls and Bowser, among others.

The icons and release dates in the overview.

Do the icons cost anything? Yes, 5 or 10 Platinum points each. You can find out how you can buy and create the user symbols in detail on the official Nintendo support site.

Mario Kart 8 just doesn’t run out of gas
