The Labo Toy-Con Motorbike is now compatible with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
We were pretty impressed with Labo when it released earlier this year, but there was one question on everybody’s mind: will other games get Labo support? Turns out the answer is yes, yes they will.
A new update to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe today has brought with it the ability to use the Toy-Con Motorbike found in the Labo Variety Pack within the game.

Upon updating and launching the game, you’ll notice a new menu icon on the main screen for Toy-Con, and selecting that will bring you to a screen that allows you to set the controllers of up to four players as the Toy-Con Motorbike.

The update also brings a few minor bug fixes, which you can read about here, but let’s be honest, this update is all about Labo. Here’s hoping we’ll see more support for other games in the future.
