The biggest change done to the course is the alteration of the underwater section. The chute that enters the water now goes straight down and is wider, longer, and has three slides akin to the opening of the track, instead of being a small spherical hole in the wall. Several trick ramps while heading down the chute replace the trickable pipes found in the original version of the track. The chute and the underwater section are also now an anti-gravity segment, with the track going down and then sweeping upward towards the glide ramp through a large tank populated with [[Cheep Cheep]]s, rather than through a closed tube. This results in a much steeper Glide Ramp. The ledge reachable by way of a [[Jet Pipe]] has also been repositioned to rest in the center of the track, instead of along the right side; it now allows racers to jump over the Piranha Plant prior to the Glide Ramp. | The biggest change done to the course is the alteration of the underwater section.

The three slides at the start/finish line have a ramp added at the end, allowing racers to perform tricks on them. The Star Cup sign at the entrance to the tunnel has also been removed, due to it being a retro track. In addition, the first of the two grass shortcuts during the last stretch has been removed, likely due to it being easily done without a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] via gliding over it in ''Mario Kart 7''. However, gliding over it outside of 200cc is impossible without a Mushroom due to the gliding section being made much steeper; in 200cc, the speed increase allows racers to glide over the top of the castle wall and beyond. Small Piranha Plants from {{classic link|N64|Royal Raceway}} have been added throughout the aboveground section of the course. | The three slides at the start/finish line have a ramp added at the end, allowing racers to perform tricks on them.

Piranha Plant Slide returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' in the [[Piranha Plant Tour]]. It was the final 3DS course added to the game. Like with {{classic link|3DS|Neo Bowser City}}, it mostly uses its appearance from ''Mario Kart 7'' as opposed to ''Mario Kart 8''. Because of this, the starting line has been reverted back to the version seen in ''Mario Kart 7'', albeit with the castle having a more straight orientation compared to its previous appearances. The Goombas, however, retain their normal coloration, like in ''Mario Kart 8''. The underwater section has also been reverted to its original appearance and layout as a confined tunnel with trickable pipes along the ground. However, the final section retains its adjusted layout that removed a shortcut from ''Mario Kart 7''. Additionally, one of the [[Empty Block]] rows has been removed during the underground section, likely to better suit the more limited controls. The water that comes from the pipes towards the end of the course no longer acts as an obstacle, and can be glided through with ease. The underwater version of the music returns. | Piranha Plant Slide returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' in the [[Piranha Plant Tour]]. It was the final 3DS course added to the game.

The course also appears as '''Piranha Plant Slide R''' (reversed), '''Piranha Plant Slide T''' (with ramps), and '''Piranha Plant Slide R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the original in the Piranha Plant Tour, while the latter debuted in the [[New Year's Tour (2023)|2023 New Year's Tour]]. In all three variants, the Goombas are gone. In the R variant, the Piranha Plant where the track splits has been moved to the other end, so racers encounter it in the same manner. In the T variant, the aforementioned Piranha Plant has been moved to the jump near where the Goombas were. In the R/T variant, both Piranha Plants have been moved there. | The course also appears as '''Piranha Plant Slide R''' (reversed), '''Piranha Plant Slide T''' (with ramps), and '''Piranha Plant Slide R/T''' (reversed with ramps).
