The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass is a DLC expansion pack for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, announced during a Nintendo Direct held on February 9, 2022. The pack includes 12 additional cups, for a total of 48 additional courses (bringing the total number of courses to 96), all of which are remastered versions of courses from other Mario Kart games, including Mario Kart Tour. The courses are based on their designs from Mario Kart Tour, with the exceptions of Wii Coconut Mall and DS Shroom Ridge, which are currently absent from said game. The pack marks the longest gap between the original release of a Mario game and the release of its DLC, releasing nearly five years after Mario Kart 8 Deluxe did.

The pack is set to be released in six waves by the end of 2023, with the first releasing on March 18, 2022. It can be purchased on its own, but is also included in the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership.[1] The first wave of the DLC was made available to pre-load on March 15, 2022.[2]
