Mario Kart 8’s Free DLC and August 27th Patch Revealed, Includes Several Online Improvements

August 5, 2014

Later this month, Mario Kart 8 will get its first DLC package. Sponsored by Mercedes-Benz, it’ll include three vehicles from the past and present Mercedes line-up… for FREE!

A video has released in Japan containing footage of all three vehicles in action. The three cars are confirmed to be the 300 SL Roadster, W 25 Silver Arrow, and GLA, meaning there is some variety despite it all coming from one car manufacturer. It’s more than just a visual addition as each of these vehicles will have their own stats.

Truthfully, this is kind of a strange fit for Mario Kart, but at least it’s free. You can check out how they look in the gallery below.
