Car Kirby has made his way into Mario Kart 8 with the help of mods, because of course he has.

Unfortunately, for those dying to take Carby out for a spin, this racer isn’t actually available in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. However, we do have some good news for you about both Kirby and Mario Kart. Also announced during the Nintendo Direct last week, Mario Kart 8 will be getting 48 new courses over the next two years in the form of a Booster Course Pack. The first pack of courses will include classics such as Coconut Mall from Mario Kart Wii, Choco Mountain from Mario Kart N64, and Tokyo Blur from Mario Kart Tour.
