Mario Kart 8 is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated games for the Wii U this year and now we know exactly when we'll get our hands on it.

European gamers will be able to pick up the title from May 30th and for the first time in the series, the Koopa Kids will be joining the race.

The brand new trailer, shown during today's Nintendo Direct, shows off the pesky critters as well as giving us a look at the brand new anti-gravity vehicles.
