Underwater races and hang-gliding confirmed for latest racer, due this Christmas
Nintendo has confirmed that Mario Kart 3DS will be released this Christmas.
The game was introduced during the firm's E3 press conference by Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime, who assured fans that this would be a completely new iteration of the popular racing series.
In addition to the traditional karting antics, the key feature of this new Mario Kart is underwater races and hang-gliding, with tracks heading both along the bottom of the ocean floor and into the clouds.
The trailer also revealed that players will be able to customise their cars, switching between different wheels, body parts and more.
