Revision as of 08:33, October 20, 2019
This article is about a game that has just been released on September 25, 2019. Major changes should be made by a contributor who has a reliable source.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.
Template:Infobox Mario Kart Tour is a mobile game in the Mario Kart series. First announced during a financial briefing on January 31, 2018,[1] it is the third Mario mobile game overall, following Super Mario Run and Dr. Mario World, the ninth main installment in the Mario Kart series, and the sixteenth installment overall. Like Super Mario Run, it is free-to-start from the App Store and Google Play.[2] Unlike Super Mario Run and similar to that of Dr. Mario World, the game more heavily incorporates a free-to-play microtransaction mechanic, where players have restrictions and timers unless they spend some of the various types of currencies in-game, as well as having loot boxes in the form of items being launched out of pipes. The game reuses many assets from Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, and Mario Kart 8, as well as returning gameplay mechanics such as gliding and character specific special items. In addition, the game introduces some features new to the Mario Kart franchise such as reverse tracks and ability to deploy a large amount of any item during a race, including Spiny Shells and Bullet Bills. On April 23, 2019, Nintendo opened applications for participating in a closed beta test of the game to Android users in North America and Japan, which began on May 22, 2019 and ended on June 4, 2019.[3]
The game officially launched for both iOS and Android devices on September 25, 2019 in 163 territories, which covers nearly the same roster of availability as Super Mario Run, with the exceptions of Belgium and Vietnam, the former of which banned games with loot boxes in 2019. Users who pre-registered acquired the game a day early. Unlike previous Mario mobile games, a Nintendo Account is required to be playable.
Gameplay
The goal of the game is to be in first place at the end of each race, using items obtained by driving through Item Boxes. The game is played in a portrait position, while the phone's touch controls are used to play the game, such as dragging the finger across the screen to steer the kart.[4] There are three ways the player can make turns. For the phones supporting it, the gyroscope can be used to steer. Touch controls can be used in two configurations. The main setting has the driver jumping every time the screen is tapped, making drifting the main way to take turns, controlled by how the fingers slide on the screen. In the other configuration, the kart does not jump when tapping the screen, which results in it steering and auto-drifting as the fingers slide on the screen. This configuration does not allow the charge of an Ultra Mini-Turbo. Similarly to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with auto-accelerate and smart-steering enabled, karts accelerate automatically and can steer players away from walls. The intensity of smart-steering can be changed in the game's settings.
The game's mechanics are based on Mario Kart 7 and most of the Retro Courses are also available as either normal or retro courses in Mario Kart 7. A few features from Mario Kart 8 that required substantial changes to the game, such as Bikes, ATVs, anti-gravity, and 12-player races, are missing, while the 200cc class is present. Other features from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, such as auto-accelerate, smart-steering and Ultra Mini-Turbos, return. Unlike previous games the player cannot customize their tires.
When a race is completed, the player will be awarded with Grand Stars, experience points for the used driver, kart and glider, and coins. If the player finishes in the top three places, the gauge to level up will be filled, while if the placement is 5th or lower, the gauge will be dropped. When the gauge is already empty, however, the player will not go level down. Grand Stars are awarded depending on whether a certain point threshold has been reached. Experience points for the driver, kart and glider are awarded depending on the placement. The coins obtained are those collected during the race, but a player will get one additional coin for every 1000 points obtained during the race. Each day, it is possible to obtain up to 150 experience points for drivers, karts and gliders and up to 300 coins by racing. When those limits are reached the player cannot obtain experience points or coins by racing until the next day. In order to continue gaining experience points or collecting coins, the player can use point-boost tickets for the former and can play Coin Rush or get rewards from challenges for the latter. Grand Stars are used to unlock new cups and to receive Tour Gifts that appear in the form of gift boxes in the race selection screen. Experience points for drivers, karts and gliders are used to increase the points earned for a race by selecting a said driver, kart or glider. Coins are mainly used in the shop to purchase items. Filling up the gauge to level up gives a reward to the player, increases the points earned when reaching a specific placement in the race and, when level 7 or level 12 are reached, allows the player to buy more items in the shop.
| Placement | Points multiplier[a 1] | Experience points for drivers, karts and gliders |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 0.85 | 9 |
| 3 | 0.75 | 8 |
| 4 | 0.65 | 7 |
| 5 | 0.55 | 6 |
| 6 | 0.45 | 5 |
| 7 | 0.35 | 4 |
| 8 | 0.2 | 3 |
- ^ This multiplier is used at the end of the race for both the points bonus linked to the player's current level and the engine class selected and the extra points obtained when using a level 2 or higher character or part in a first tier favored course.
The game features Tour Challenges and Daily Challenges , which are rewarded with Grand Stars, and Standard Challenges, which are rewarded with Rubies. Rubies are the game's premium currency. Beside being bought with real-life currency, Rubies can also obtained as rewards. They can be used to launch pipes which randomly shoot out a driver, kart or glider, all which have their own rarities.[4] A counter keeps track of the number of Normal, Super and High-End items obtained from a certain pipe, so that up to a certain number of Normal, Super and High-End items can be obtained. It is possible that a player obtains an item from a pipe that they already have. When this happens the level up gauge of the item will be filled. A pipe contains 100 items, including one featured High-End character, kart and glider which are guaranteed to have been launched from a pipe if the player emptied it. A new pipe replaces the former one each week, and the player can reset a pipe manually as well. Rubies can also be spent in Coin Rush where the player can obtain a great amount of coins. Over 300 coins are found in the course. For each tour, another course is available in Coin Rush and Gold Mario is the regular driver. The coins obtained from Coin Rush are multiplied by a certain number, depending on how much Rubies a player has spent.
| Coins multiplier | Rubies |
|---|---|
| 2 | 3 |
| 6 | 15 |
| 10 | 25 |
Another premium item, bought with real-life currency according to a monthly subscription model, is the Gold Pass, which grants access to the 200cc engine class, additional items from Tour Gifts and Gold Challenges.
Each driver, kart and glider have favored courses, on which they offer advantages if they are used. Each course has three tiers for each driver, kart and glider. Second tier characters receive two items and first tier characters receive three items. Second tier karts give a bonus points multiplier of 1.5 and first tier karts give a bonus points multiplier of 2. Second tier gliders increase the time between two point-gaining actions to count as combo and give a combo bonus multiplier of 2 and first tier gliders increase the combo-time even longer and give a combo bonus multiplier of 3. The player can become Frenzy by getting three of the same items at the same time. Frenzy Mode causes the item the player has gotten to use for an infinite amount of times until the Frenzy Mode ends and gives the player the power-up from the Star item.[5][6][7] Super and High-End drivers, karts and gliders have a higher number of points gained when choosing them and more preferred courses. In addition, drivers have their own special items, similar to Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'s item system. Karts have their own driving-related bonus such as increasing the effectiveness of drafting, while gliders increase the likelihood of obtaining a certain item and the points gained when using this item. All drivers, karts and gliders can be leveled up, and they all come with upgrades when done so.
The courses the player can play depends on the tour, which changes every two weeks. Each tour has sixteen cups, and adds new drivers, karts, gliders and courses, including one course that is new to the series. Each cup contains three races and one Bonus Challenge. Bonus Challenges require the player to beat a certain goal with a certain character, kart and glider. Once each of the courses and the Bonus Challenge is played and enough Grand Stars are obtained, the player can move on to the next cup. Tour Gifts appear between cups which give the player items if they have enough Grand Stars obtained. Every week, one of the tour's cups is a ranked cup. In a ranked cup, the player is placed on a leaderboard based on their overall score in the game against nineteen other players. The player gains a reward and increases in tier which carries over to the next ranked cup) at the end of the week if they end within the best ten places.
| Placement | Rewards | Tier increase |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Rubies ×20 Coins ×1,000 Point-boost tickets ×3 of each type |
3 |
| 2 | Rubies ×15 Coins ×1,000 Point-boost tickets ×2 of each type | |
| 3 | Rubies ×10 Coins ×1,000 Point-boost tickets ×1 of each type | |

Each tour has three sets of Tour Challenges. The first one is unlocked from the tour's beginning, the second one unlocks after the one week, and the third one is exclusive to Gold Pass members.
Courses
In addition to the courses listed below, many alternate courses are also featured in the game; courses can have an "R" (Reverse) and/or "T" (Trick) variant. Courses marked with "R" are driven in backwards orientation; the track will have alterations if necessary to make this possible. Courses marked with "T" feature many additional ramps and trickable obstacles, and are otherwise the same.

Drivers
There are currently 34 playable characters (35 if including Gold Mario, who appears exclusively in the Coin Rush mode) in Mario Kart Tour. Upon launching the game for the first time, players start with either Toad, Toadette, or Peachette. Unlike other Mario Kart games, there are no weight classes between characters, but they are sorted by their rarity of unlocking them, via opening up randomized green pipes with rubies. There are three tiers of rarity: Normal, Super, and High-End. While the Normal characters are easier to unlock, rarer characters have a greater amount of starting points, have a higher top speed, higher coin-earning rates, likelihood of picking up mid-race weapons and items, and have more favored courses. Once players clear the tutorial, they are rewarded with a random Super-class character.
The following lists the playable characters and their special item.

Items
Item Box items
Items function mostly the same as in previous installments in the series. As in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, every character has their own special item that (most) other characters cannot get. A large change to the item system is introduced; depending on the character and course they're used on, players can get one to three items at once. In the case that a character gets three of the same item, they will activate the new Frenzy Mode, in which they become temporarily invincible and can use unlimited supplies of the respective item until the invincibility runs out. Any item can appear in Frenzy Mode, except for the Star, which is exclusive to certain bonus challenges.
The game introduces five new items to the series, being the Bubble, the Banana Barrels, the Mushroom Cannon, the Coin Box, and the Dash Ring, all of which are character-exclusive items.

Inventory items
These items are collected throughout the course of the game through various means, such as challenges, log-in bonuses, and Tour Gifts.
| Image | Name | Description |

|
Ruby | Special currency used to either play Coin Rush without an appropriate ticket, or fire the pipe containing drivers, karts and gliders. |
|
Grand Star | Rewards for scores in races and challenges. The added total allows to participate in more cups and open presents in every Tour. If all the gifts have been opened during a Tour coins will be awarded instead of stars. Once the Tour ends, the total resets to zero. |

Item ticket | Allows to get a free item chance during a race. Only 1 ticket is allowed to be used per race. |
|
Star ticket | Grants a Grand Star. |
|

Coin Rush ticket | Allows the player to participate once on the Coin Rush mode of the current Tour. |
  
|

|
Level-boost ticket | Increases the level or the fraction of a level of a particular character, kart, or glider. The type of ticket must match the rarity. If a character, kart, or glider is already at level 6, no further Level-point boost tickets can be used. |

 Bowser Barrel |
SNES Mario Circuit 1 (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Neo Bowser City (Goomba Takedown) |
An explosive object that can be triggered by throwing a projectile or by driving into it.

Some Bowser Barrels stand on the ground, while others float or fly using propellers. |
 Chain Chomp |
SNES Mario Circuit 2T | A large chained enemy that lunges towards racers who drive past it, turning them over if it reaches them. The Chain Chomp can be taken out by touching it while in an invincible state. |

Clampy |
3DS Cheep Cheep Lagoon | Oyster obstacles that periodically open and close their valves to reveal objects such as coins and Item Boxes that racers can drive into to collect. If a Clampy closes its valves in on a racer, it will turn them over. |
| File:MKT Cobrat.png Cobrat |
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar | Cobrats are snakes that will spring out of snake jars upon breaking them. They do not affect gameplay. |
 Flying Shy Guy |
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar | Shy Guys that use magic carpets to fly around. Flying Shy Guys appear above the glider section. Colliding with a Flying Shy Guy will cause racers to spin out and drop down. |

 Goomba |
SNES Mario Circuit 1 (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Mario Circuit 3DS Neo Bowser City (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Toad Circuit R Tokyo Blur (Do Jump Boosts) |
Short enemies that stand in the racers' way. They can be taken out with a projectile item or by simply driving into them, although the latter will also cause the racer to spin out if they are not in an invincible state. They can also be defeated by landing on them while gliding or after driving off a ramp, which gives the racer a Jump Boost. |
 Goomba Tower |
SNES Mario Circuit 1 (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Neo Bowser City (Goomba Takedown) 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar (Goomba Takedown) |
A stack of Goombas that can be defeated the same way as an individual Goomba. If the Goomba at the bottom of a tower is defeated, all of the ones above it will collapse and be defeated as well. |
 Jar |
3DS Shy Guy Bazaar | An object found on the track. Jars will break upon collision with an item or a racer. Running into a jar will slow the racer down if they are not in an invincible state. Some jars move around and release Cobrats when broken. |

A sauropod that plows its big feet on the track. The feet act as obstructions that bounce racers away or trample them. However, they can be knocked away by driving into them while in an invincible state. If a racer lands onto a Nossie's head, they get a Jump Boost. |
 Oil Slick |
SNES Mario Circuit 2 | An obstacle that causes any racer who drives into it to spin out. It cannot be removed, but can be driven over safely if the racer is in an invincible state. |

An element that slows down any racer who collides with it. Pipes are spread on the track, usually in off-road sections, and can be taken out by driving into them while in an invincible state. Piranha Plants commonly occupy pipes. |
|
GCN Yoshi Circuit | Enemies that have two types. One type are in pipes and attack by lunging at racers who drive past them. The other type is passive and resides on the ground, always facing its head upward. Both types will cause racers to spin out if they come into contact with them, but can be taken out by using a Bob-omb on them, driving into them while invincible or, in the case of the latter, hitting it with a shell. |
 Piranha Plant |

Challenges

Challenges are objectives the player can complete to earn various badges and rewards depending on the type, of which there are three: Standard Challenges, long-term challenges the player accomplishes throughout the course of the game; and Tour and Gold Challenges, challenges that last for the duration of the tour, the latter of which are exclusive to Gold Pass members. Completing Standard Challenges awards the player with rubies, while Tour and Gold Challenges award extra Grand Stars. Each challenge card holds nine challenges aligned in a 3×3 grid, and for every bingo the player acquires (i.e. any horizontal, vertical, or diagonal match), they earn 50 coins (100 coins for Standard Challenges). The player also receives a reward upon completing an entire challenge card.

Reception
Initial impressions of the beta have been mixed. Journalists have praised the gameplay and graphics, but have criticized the free-to-play gacha elements of the game. Sam Machkovech of Ars Technica has compared the game's in-app purchases to Spiny Shells, blowing up the classic Mario Kart experience. He has suggested that "the developers pick a side: attach an annoying economy to a deeper control scheme and more legitimate online options, or make it cheaper and less obnoxious to watch Mario drive himself."[4] Ethan Gach of Kotaku has also stated that the game is "a mostly faithful but stripped-down recreation of Mario Kart decked out with all the microtransactions and lottery mechanics mobile games are infamous for" and also lamenting the lack of a multiplayer mode.[24] Steven Asarch of Newsweek has complained about the game's "freemium greed" and that it is "ruined by microtransactions".[25]
As of October 11, 2019, Mario Kart Tour received mixed reviews, with a Metacritic Metascore of 59.[26]
