Mario, Luigi, Peach and other popular characters from the Super Mario series are joined by new and former drivers like King Boo, Skelerex and Bowser. Jr. Even the Inklings of Splatoon are invited to the race!
Once your driver is selected, choose a vehicle and customize it with different chassis, wheels and wings before you start the race.
A WORD OF 48 PROPOSED CIRCUITS: Run on land, under water, in the air and even on walls and ceilings through 48 circuits full of surprises. All the circuits and drivers of Mario Kart 8 on Wii U are back in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, including the downloadable tracks previously released inspired by The Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, Excitebike, and many more!
You have the option to choose from different speed classes, such as the 150cc Grand Prix or the ultra-fast 200cc Grand Prix. Are you new to Mario Kart? Enable assisted driving to help you take your marks with the game and prevent you from getting out of the track.
ENSURE THE COURSE OF THE PART WITH THE OBJECTS! : You can now carry two objects at a time, allowing you to develop new strategies during races and battles! The useful objects of previous Mario Kart titles such as bananas, turbo mushrooms or famous thorn shells are back, but there are also new ones like Boo which allows to be invisible and perhaps even to steal the object of another player, or the acrobate pen*** which allows to jump to avoid imminent attacks.
THE BATALE MODE WAS ALSO GRAND There are many ways to face your rivals in the new battle mode revisited. Sow chaos in balloon battle modes, Bob-ombs to gogo, coin battle and sun capture, or launch into the all-new tracking mode on the track. Whatever way you choose to do the battle, there are eight dedicated circuits on which to fight. Face your friends on Luigi's Manoir circuit or try to avoid being caught on the Turbot Passage circuit straight from the Splatoon universe.
