Some promotional material for Wave 1, primarily the infographic showing all the courses in the wave, also used Tour screenshots. The artwork also features an official screenshot of the ninja Shy Guys in Ninja Hideaway, which originated from the Ninja Tour's in-game preview. Some screenshots of the courses show Paris Promenade and Paris Promenade 3 with barrier fences from that game. The courses shown in the key artwork use official screenshots and in-game course icons from Mario Kart Tour. If the player has purchased the Booster Course Pass or currently has a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership, a small icon of a Super Star can be seen next to the version number on the game's title screen. The first wave of the DLC was made available to pre-load on March 15, 2022, and was released on March 18, 2022. It can be purchased on its own, but is also included in the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The pack is set to be released in six waves by the end of 2023, or the end of 2024 in China. The pack also makes Mario Kart 8 Deluxe the first Mario Kart game to feature classic courses from games following the original game's release, with Mario Kart Tour and its reappearing courses debuting after 8 Deluxe was initially released. The pack marks the longest gap between the original release of a Mario game and the release of its DLC, releasing nearly five years after Mario Kart 8 Deluxe did. However, the courses have received visual improvements and new music arrangements compared to Mario Kart Tour.
The courses are based on their designs from Mario Kart Tour, with the exceptions of DS Shroom Ridge, GBA Snow Land, and DS Peach Gardens, which are currently absent from said game. The pack includes 12 additional cups, for a total of 48 additional courses (bringing the total number of courses to 96), most of which are remastered versions of courses from other Mario Kart games, including Mario Kart Tour.
