The rumor mill surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2 is churning, with a new leak potentially exciting Mario Kart fans. Following earlier speculation about a 2025 release for a new Mario Kart title, this latest leak suggests a possible launch day release alongside the console.
Several recent leaks, many originating from accessory manufacturers, have hinted at upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 peripherals. Among these is the expected Pro Controller, but a more intriguing leak reveals a steering wheel accessory, reminiscent of the Wii era. This has sparked speculation about a new Mario Kart title.
The leaked accessory appears to be a simple plastic steering wheel designed to hold a Joy-Con controller, mirroring the Wii’s steering wheel design for the Wii Remote. The existence of this accessory strongly suggests Nintendo is anticipating a racing game for the Switch 2, and Mario Kart seems the most likely candidate. The fact that this accessory appears ready for the console’s launch could indicate a simultaneous release for a new Mario Kart game.
While this is still speculative, it lends further credence to the Mario Kart rumors. It seems almost certain a new Mario Kart game is in development for the Nintendo Switch 2, potentially launching alongside the console, which is rumored to release in the first half of 2025.
It’s crucial to remember that this information is based on unofficial leaks and rumors. Nintendo has not commented on these rumors, and given their strict policy of silence regarding speculation, official confirmation is unlikely. However, if Nintendo does issue a statement, this article will be updated accordingly.
