Good morning,
Nintendo is venturing into mobile games once again with the forthcoming Mario Kart Tour.
Set for release on Sept. 25, Mario Kart Tour is almost exactly like the original game.

The official Twitter account for the game released a pre-registration link for Nintendo users to get ready to play. The Twitter account also posted a trailer for the forthcoming game:
Earlier this year, Nintendo released Dr. Mario World for iOS and Android, and the company released the mobile game, Fire Emblem Heroes, in 2017.
