Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Dark Clown is a Super kart in Mario Kart Tour. Introduced in the 2019 Halloween Tour, it is a variant of the Koopa Clown with a purple and black color scheme, and red eyes, steering wheel, seat, and dashboard. Unlike the Koopa Clown, it uses the Cyber Slick tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Like the Koopa Clown, this kart increases the duration of Mini-Turbo boosts and the number of points awarded for performing Mini-Turbos.

Availability[edit]

As of the Battle Tour, the Dark Clown can be obtained from regular pipes, and is available in the shop's Daily Selects lineup. The table below shows the kart's special availability by tour.

  • Mario Kart Tour Twitter: Ever notice how well the Dark Clown kart and Swooper glider go together? The purple color scheme and dark shades make these two a perfect match.[1] (The tweet mistakenly mentions the Swooper instead of the Wicked Wings.)
