Map of Tokyo Blur 4 from Mario Kart Tour

Tokyo Blur 4 is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is named after and inspired by Tokyo, Japan, and is the fourth and final layout of the overall Tokyo Blur course. It is the featured course of the Mario Tour, where it made its debut. This course combines all three previous layouts of the Tokyo Blur course, due to this, the race is divided into two sections rather than two laps. It is the second new course to appear in two consecutive tours after Merry Mountain, and the first city course to do so.

This course is a favorite of Blue Yoshi, Nabbit, Daisy (Yukata), Cat Toad, Mario (Racing), and White Yoshi.

The course also appears as Tokyo Blur 4R (reverse), Tokyo Blur 4T (with ramps), and Tokyo Blur 4R/T (reverse and with ramps).

The idea of combining all three layouts of the Tokyo Blur course later resurfaced as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's variation of Tokyo Blur in the Booster Course Pass.

Course layout

The city course's layout in
relation to its other layouts

In the standard layout, the track starts out following the same path as Tokyo Blur. All of the racers start the course on the central span of the Rainbow Bridge. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the right through Ginza, then makes a slight left before the Wako store. Not long after, the course makes a right U-turn near the National Diet Building and the Miraikan, then goes through a tunnel. The course then makes a sharp left to follow a small portion of Tokyo Blur 2 in reverse, going under the Kaminarimon next to the Sensō-ji, where the second segment of the course begins. The track then immediately makes a U-turn toward the Shuto Expressway; the remainder of the course follows the path of Tokyo Blur 3, entering the expressway through a set of toll gates before rounding the spiral loop around the Tokyo Big Sight. A Glide Ramp sends the player back onto the Rainbow Bridge, where a set of Thwomps on either side threatens the players just before the finish line.
