Mute City

Template:Newsubject Template:Articleabout Template:Racecourse Mute City is the fourth and final course of the Egg Cup included with The Legend of Zelda × Mario Kart 8 downloadable content in Mario Kart 8. This course is based on the F-Zero series. Coins are not present naturally on this course, and can only be obtained by driving over the recharge pathways, Item Boxes, or picking up the coins dropped by other players.

Course layout

The track is entirely in anti-gravity, from start to finish, in a futuristic world. Signs throughout the course depict the original four F-Zero racers, Captain Falcon, Samurai Goroh, Dr. Stewart, Pico, and their respective machines in their F-Zero X artwork. Right off the start, several boost pads and recharge paths (which gives them a maximum of ten coins) can be found. After a U-turn, the track begins to corkscrew before a large jump. Afterward, the track continues on a cylindrical route that continues to twist before another jump leads into a opening in a building. Here, two more recharge paths can be found before the race continues outside. After a few turns, the track becomes a down hill drive past a Rocket and a few signs depicting Captain Falcon before it arrives at the finish line.

Shortcuts

• There is a mud section inside the U-turn after the exit of the building, that one can cut off if a mushroom boost or star is used.
• The turn before the downhill section can be cut off by boosting through a muddy path leading to a ramp, which then leads to another platform that one can use to get to the main path.
• One can use a star or mushroom to boost through two mud patches before going off the final jump to the finish line.

Trivia

This trivia section is overly long. Please relocate any relevant information into appropriate sections and articles.

• This is the only course in Mario Kart 8 so far to take place entirely in anti-gravity.
• Instead of using the normal starting line countdown and results theme, this course uses the F-Zero series equivalents; this is the only track in the Mario Kart series to do this.
  • The starting line countdown theme only happens during Grand Prix and VS races, however.
• One of the signs depicts an artwork of Captain Falcon alongside the text "SHOW ME YOUR MOVES!", a reference to his taunt in the Super Smash Bros. series.
• Some buildings have the names "White Cat" and the number two and the name "Great Star" on them, references to F-Zero characters Jody Summer and Mr. EAD, respectively.
• The desert seen outside Mute City might be a reference to another F-Zero course called Sand Ocean.
