Robo DK[1] is a robotic version of Donkey Kong that appears in Mario Kart World. He appears in the race course DK Spaceport, tossing barrels down slopes.[2]

When approached, Robo DK jumps away to climb to the top of the structure. As drivers ascend the structure as well, Robo DK tosses barrels down the track that must be avoided. Once Robo DK is encountered at the top, much like the previous layers, drivers must avoid the barrels he tosses to drive between Robo DK's legs, which leads to the finish line.[2] Robo DK tossing barrels at the player is a reference to Donkey Kong is his titular arcade game.
