So yeah, Link doesn’t have to worry about his popularity fading. Now that the new Mario Kart 8 DLC is available to play, online games are awash in a sea of green. Link is becoming the Little Mac of Mario Kart.

And you want him, too. So snag the pack from the Ninendo eShop and let the Legend of Zelda theme swell in your head as you head to the character select screen.

There will be two Mario Kart 8 DLC packs. The first, out today, adds Tanooki Mario, Cat Peach and Link; four vehicles including an amazing Master Cycle motorcycle for Link, the B Dasher, Blue Falcon and Tanooki Kart; and eight tracks. The second, coming in May 2015, adds Villager, Isabelle and Dry Bowser, four additional vehicles and eight more tracks. The packs also add new tracks, carts, and some new color schemes for Yoshi and Shyguy that can be obtained before the DLC launches through pre-ordering. The DLC is $7.99 per pack or $11.99 for both.
