The Mario Kart 8 Custom Items Update is free for all owners of the game

If you are playing the game, you might have noticed the Mario Kart 8 2.2.0 update is already available for download. If not, you might want to check your internet connection or download it manually. Yet, those who are already inside the game will see the new DLC pack and the Mario Kart 8 custom items update. As we mentioned, this adds the feature to let you choose the items you want to see during a race. Tired of shells? They can go away thanks to this new feature. To be honest, this is something we hope they keep for the next entry of the series.

So, if you’re ready to take on the new tracks, you can download the new update right now on your Nintendo Switch.
