The time has come. Mario Kart Tour is officially dead. The Nintendo-made mobile game first became available in 2019 and was a fairly good time-waster, though riddled with numerous currencies and gacha mechanics. Nintendo announced the game would shutter back in July. The app will still open, but only to show player stats. Service ends on Sept. 29 at 11:00 p.m. PT.

Nintendo is not transitioning the game to an offline title. The racer joins other Nintendo-published mobile titles in the gaming graveyard, like Miitomo, Dr. Mario World and Dragalia Lost. However, there's plenty of Mario Kart to play on Nintendo consoles, including Mario Kart World and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on the Switch 2. Mario Kart Tour was primarily developed by Nintendo EPD.
