Those hints seem to be pretty blatant. We're quite positive at this point that Rosalina is coming (riding some kind of glider it appears) and Rainbow Road are coming.



In addition, Tokyo Tour (the next set of courses) was also announced via the official twitter for the same date/time so we should see a full banner and new characters to pull from the pipe if all goes to plan.

While we know some potential options that are coming (you can check out our article below on the current drivers, carts and gliders in game), we're still waiting for a number of drivers to appear.

Update 10/8 4:25 PM (EST): We also know (based on in-game notifications) that Hakama Mario in a rickshaw kart is coming as well with this update. As well as a course called Tokyo Blur. See image below from the in game notifications. Thanks to Meester Tweester for that catch as well!



For those unfamiliar with Hakama Mario - he was featured in a 2016 Nintendo calendar and then was a featured costume in Odyssey.
