Mario Kart fans have been waiting for the Switch to get a new entry in the franchise for a long time. Nintendo has enthusiastically supported the mobile title Mario Kart Tour in the last few years, but fans want to see Mario Kart get a new console entry, which it hasn't had since 2014 when Mario Kart 8 released for Wii U. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe may be a hit on the Switch, but it isn't an entirely new experience. Thankfully, an increasing number of leakers claim that Mario Kart 9 is in the works and could get revealed sometime in 2022. If that's the case, there's a chance that Mario Kart fans will get a new racing game by the year's end.
