A new rumor suggests the upcoming Mario Kart game for the Nintendo Switch 2 will feature an expanded roster including characters from beyond the Mario universe, like The Legend of Zelda and Fire Emblem. This contradicts some speculation that the new Mario Kart might be a reboot with a smaller roster. While the source of the rumor is a prominent Nintendo page on Instagram, they lack a history of accurate leaks. Nintendo has not commented on the rumor.

A new Mario Kart rumor has surfaced online, teasing an expanded roster featuring not just new Mario characters, but new additions from Non-Mario universes. Back on January 16, alongside the reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2, a new Mario Kart game. It’s in development for Nintendo Switch 2, and that is all we know. What the release date is, how much it will cost, and what it’s going to be called all remain a mystery.

This is not exactly the most shocking rumor, however, there has been some speculation the new Mario Kart game could be a reboot, and thus have a shrunken roster. That said, if this new rumor is accurate, this is seemingly not the case. Is this new rumor accurate though? Well, at the moment there is no way to validate or invalidate the rumor. However, it is important to consider that while the source is a prominent Nintendo page on Instagram, complete with over 100,000 followers, they do not have a history of accurate rumors and leaks to bolster this claim. This doesn’t discredit the claim entirely, but it is important context to consider.
