Nintendo needs to be "super transparent" with potential paid Mario Kart World DLC for Switch 2, former marketing leads say, as "people are already questioning the $80 price tag"

It feels like Mario Kart World DLC could be an inevitability, but two of Nintendo's former marketing leads think the company shouldn't be too hasty with announcing extra paid content for the upcoming Switch 2 game.

Nintendo can be pretty weird about DLC. Sometimes games have it announced right away, like certain Mario Sports titles, and other times it arrives years down the line, like with Captain Toad. Mario Kart 8 specifically had two batches of DLC, with the first two packs arriving within the first year and the Booster Course Pass arriving on Switch almost eight years after the game first launched on the Wii U. As such, you can understand why it feels like Mario Kart World DLC is likely bound to happen eventually.
