(UPDATE 3/16/2021: Screen Rant has been informed that the Hot Wheels Rainbow Road track was listed prematurely. The product will be available this summer, and pre-orders are not currently available. Amazon will issue refunds to anyone who has pre-purchased a track. The original story follows.)

A new Hot Wheels set based on Mario Kart’s Rainbow Road is coming this May and it’s pretty awesome. The new set was listed on Amazon and will bring Mario Kart to life right in anyone’s living room – sans a Nintendo Switch and copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Mario Kart is undeniably one of the most popular games out there, resulting in nearly unlimited money-making opportunities. Many have tried to create real-life Mario Kart with go-karts, much to Nintendo’s chagrin, resulting in lawsuits. The high-demand for a real-life Mario Kart has incentivized Nintendo to make its own track based on the series at its new theme parks, which were initially delayed as a result of Covid-19 setbacks. For a smaller-scale experience, Nintendo has teamed up with Hot Wheels.

A new $119.99 Hot Wheels set based on Mario Kart’s Rainbow Road is releasing on May 29 (via IGN and NintendoLife). Fans will be able to customize the track with different pieces, allowing for more of a winding nature or a straight-up downhill race. The set will come with Mario and King Boo karts, but promo images suggest other characters can be added separately. This should somewhat help tide hardcore fans over until the next Mario Kart releases, and no one knows when that will be.

Nintendo has been pushing the Mario Kart IP pretty hard in recent years. Not only has the Japanese publisher been trying to bundle the Nintendo Switch version of Mario Kart 8 with consoles, but it also released an augmented reality version of the racer on Nintendo Switch titled Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit. Whether or not fans can expect a brand-new entry in the series in the next year or so when the rumored Nintendo Switch Pro releases is unclear, but there may not even be an incentive for Nintendo to do that.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has been selling like crazy over the last few years, continuing to top itself almost every year. Nintendo has bundled a digital game code of the racer into several different Nintendo Switch packages, but the sales numbers are a pretty impressive feat all the same. The series continues to grow larger and larger without a new mainline entry, proving that Nintendo just needs nothing but momentum to succeed. Even President Joe Biden has a lot of love for the popular franchise and recently played a few races with his granddaughter. This new Hot Wheels set will likely only continue to capture the hearts of Mario Kart fans.
