Moonview Highway makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting from the [[Night Tour]]; it was the penultimate classic course added to the game, as well as the final Wii course. Cars now use designs from [[Tour Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways 3]], trucks use their ''Mario Kart 8'' designs, and Bob-omb Cars return with their design from {{classic link|GCN|Mushroom Bridge}}. The number of vehicles on the map has been significantly reduced and all vehicles now move slower. Vehicles also no longer travel at a higher speed while in the city; one consequence of this is that the first section of the course now has much lower vehicle density. Within the city, vehicles no longer change lanes; instead, each one is assigned to either the inner or outer lane for the whole section.

The course itself has been slightly condensed vertically, which is most noticeable with the reduced distances between the tunnel and second toll booth, and said booth and the starting line. In the first section, the slope on the left cliff has been extended to cover the entire turn, but the slope on the right cliff has been cut short. All extra [[Item Box|Item Boxes]] along both cliffs have been removed, except for a few atop the dash panel ramp on the right side. The trickable slope that elevated the third patch of grass has also been removed. The guard rail on the left side of the road has been extended, now preventing racers from falling off until the U-turn before the bridge, and the bridge itself now also has guard rails on both sides. In the city section, many [[Dash Panel|Dash Panels]] have been rearranged somewhat, though many of the original placements are retained. These dash panels have also had their width increased. Lastly, all sets of Item Boxes no longer have gaps where traffic would drive through, and there is a new set shortly before the tunnel. The moving Item Boxes in the city section are still present as well.

Visually, the buildings in the city portion of the course resemble the ones in [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute]]. Rather than having windows lit with different colors with an emphasis on yellow as in the original, building windows are colored in a variety of different shades, but are no longer multicolored on an individual basis. Spotlights aimed at the sky are now visible in the city portion of the course. The Mushroom Moon and Green Fuel sponsors have been recreated with 2D artwork, although Petey Piranha's cameo appearance in The Mushroom Moon has been replaced with Bowser. The Miis in the tollbooths are now replaced with [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s and [[Shy Guy]]s. The LED signs are now static images. The sirens heard in the city portion have been removed. The tunnel section now has fans attached to the ceiling. The toll booth opening sound now uses the one heard in {{classic link|Wii|DK Summit}} and [[Tour Tokyo Blur|Tokyo Blur]]. The rabbit icon marking the exits of the city has been replaced with a yellow version of the heart icon used in ''Wii''.

The course also appears as '''Moonview Highway R''' (reversed), '''Moonview Highway T''' (with ramps), and '''Moonview Highway R/T''' (reversed with ramps). In the R variant, Mushroom cars from {{Classic|GCN|Mushroom Bridge}} appear on the course instead of Bob-omb Cars, some trucks have dash panels on them, and a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] is added at the entrance of the city. In the T variant, moving vehicles only remain in the city section of the track, turning around at each set of tollbooths. Additionally, racers can glide up to an overpass which is otherwise inaccessible for all versions of Moonview Highway. In the R/T variant, moving vehicles once again are limited to the city, and this time only consist of cars and Mushroom cars. A glide ramp at the beginning of the course also allows racers to drive on top of the tunnel.

Moonview Highway returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 5 of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''. It appears as the third course of the [[Feather Cup]]. The course is largely based on its appearance from ''Mario Kart Tour''. Cars now use their ''Mario Kart 8'' designs and the total number of vehicles on the map has been further reduced. Additionally, traffic in the left lane travels 50% faster than before and includes several surfboard [[truck]]s from {{Classic link|N64|Toad's Turnpike}}. In the first section of the course, the left cliff now has a simple ramp on top. There are now [[Item Box|Double Item Boxes]] atop the dash panel ramp on the right cliff as well as on the sides of the bridge. In the city section, the dash panels that spanned the entire width of the road were removed, as well as the set of Item Boxes before the tunnel. The dash panels that remain now have their positions randomized between races, and they have once again been widened, now being as wide as one entire lane. The moving Item Boxes now behave differently, going through the toll booths and turning around instead of disappearing at both ends. Lastly, coins can now be found in different locations, with some trailing behind surfboard trucks. The course also receives numerous visual and auditory changes. For example, the lights on the bridge no longer alternate on and off, and the toll booth opening sound effect that plays when passing through has been reverted from the one heard at the aforementioned two courses and [[Super Bell Subway]] to the one heard in ''Mario Kart Wii''. The spotlights in the city now move and the yellow arrow signs in the city section are now green. Also, the course's minimap now displays the cliff portions near the start of the track. <ref>@NintendoAmerica (July 7, 2023).

Moonview Highway is one of two courses originating from ''Mario Kart Wii'' to appear in Wave 5 of the Booster Course Pass, with it appearing alongside {{Classic link|Wii|Koopa Cape}}. Internally, the course is referred to as "Cnsw_63", implying it may have originally been intended to be the third course of the Acorn Cup. This slot previously had no prefix attached to it, and the reason for its change is unknown.
