Mario Kart Tour allows players to engage in thrilling multiplayer races against up to seven opponents from around the globe, with customizable race rules including individual or team formats. The game features courses inspired by real-world cities, rotating every two weeks, alongside classic Mario Kart tracks. Players can easily control their karts with simple touchscreen mechanics, steering and drifting with a single finger while utilizing a variety of powerful items to gain an advantage on the racetrack.
The introduction of Frenzy mode enables players to access unlimited items for a brief period, adding an exciting strategic element to gameplay. Players can earn Grand Stars by racing, unlocking additional characters, karts, and gliders through the featured pipe. Unique bonus challenge courses shift the focus from traditional races, prioritizing creative gameplay and strategy over merely finishing first.
Competitors can enhance their online ranking by improving their high scores, with practice and experimenting with different character and kart combinations essential for climbing the leaderboards. To play, players must create or link a Nintendo Account and accept the related agreements. Mario Kart Tour is free to start but includes in-app purchases and requires internet connectivity. With its combination of global competition and nostalgic elements, this mobile iteration of the acclaimed series brings endless fun to fans and newcomers alike.
