Urchin Underpass is a battle course that appears as one of the new courses in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The course is based on the stage of the same name from Splatoon and contains elements from that game, such as green and purple ink splotches scattered throughout the course that decrease vehicles' traction. There are also Mario Kart elements, such as Dash Panels. There are various paths that all loop around to the main area and several bridges. Jellyfish serve as spectators on the course and also appear on the course selection icon.
The music is a variant of the "Splattack!" theme, which is one of the themes that can play during online battles in Splatoon. When there is one minute left in a match, the music changes to a variant of "Now or Never!", which plays in the final minute in Turf War matches in Splatoon. This makes it the third course in the game to have a different music track during the final portion of the match (in this case, when the timer has one minute remaining), after Mount Wario and Big Blue, which play a different part of the music track during the final segment. The music that plays during the final minute is also the only course music in the Mario Kart series that does not loop.
Just like in Waluigi Pinball, Hyrule Circuit, and Animal Crossing, this course uses a unique Item Box roulette sound effect. In this case, it is the ability slot roulette sound from Splatoon.[1] This makes it the only battle course in the series to have a unique Item Box roulette sound. In Coin Runners and Renegade Roundup, Splatoon's currency, cash, is used in place of coins.

- Despite not appearing in Urchin Underpass in Splatoon, Inkopolis Tower appears in the background, replacing a generic skyscraper present in the original game.
- As the original Splatoon (the only game in the series to feature Urchin Underpass) does not have a Dutch translation, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the only game in which Urchin Underpass is named in Dutch.
