Rumors surrounding "Mario Kart 10," otherwise referred to as "Mario Kart 9," say that the game is coming soon, featuring other characters outside the "Mario" franchise to be playable avatars. The name confusion in "Mario Kart's" sequel is because of Nintendo's "Mario Kart Home: Live Circuit" release, widely considered the ninth titular release of the franchise.

A trusted leaker and refutable insider called "LeakyPandy" shared a massive revelation regarding Nintendo's new "Mario Kart 10" game that will come this 2022. The sequel would bring new offers in the popular racing game from the franchise but would have a lot more to offer compared to its previous release, the "Mario Kart 8."

"Mario Kart 10" will bring crossovers from the different Nintendo and non-Nintendo games, including:

  • Advance Wars
  • Animal Crossing
  • ARMS
  • Balloon Fight
  • F-ZERO
  • Kid Icarus
  • Splatoon
  • Zelda

The crossover would feature characters, items, and courses from these said games, bringing the essence of each title to combine with what "Mario Kart" aims to offer its gamers. That being said, these titles would imbue themselves to the popular racing game, bringing over competition and new content provided to its gamers.

Also, LeakyPandy said that "Mario Kart 10" would have no coins and have only one item slot box. Other configurations include two box types with an extensive and small capacity to hold special items.

The small box can hold small items only like single-hand shells, mushrooms, and other things. On the other hand, the big trunk can have powerful items like three shells, a star, and other compatible items.

'Mario Kart's Influence in the Gaming Industry

The famous character known for his plumbing skills and incredible wit that pushed him to be the savior of a Princess from evil forces surrounding her has a massive influence on the gaming industry. "Mario's" popularity gained him different spinoffs from Nintendo's production, soon to have a movie starring Chris Pratt and other Hollywood celebrities.

However, a film is only one aspect and testament to the popularity of "Mario" as different games are getting remastered for the favorite classic games about the plumber's past adventures. Last year, rumors of an upcoming "Mario Kart 9" (MK10) and "Donkey Kong" are coming from Nintendo.

But Nintendo Direct and its E3 event showcase did not mention any releases regarding both games.

A new leak surfaced and features a new game for people to enjoy soon, especially if it sees a release from Nintendo. "Mario Kart" is one beloved game in the "Mario" franchise, especially as it offers a one-of-a-kind racing game that still gives off the comical feel and cartoonish competition in the Mario verse that people love.
