The wildly popular title, known for its simple gameplay and fun DLCs, will be receiving a new Mario-themed texture pack. It will include a completely visual redesign of the game, 40 (!!!) different characters and 15 pieces of music from Mario Kart 64. It is slated to hit the Nintendo eShop in June.
