Mario Kart Tour is a mobile racing game developed by Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development, released in 2019 for Android and iOS. The game features tracks inspired by real-world cities alongside returning classic Mario Kart courses, organized into tours that refresh on a two-week rotation. Some familiar characters receive city-themed variants tied to these locations. Controls are designed for touchscreens, allowing one-finger steering, drifting, and item use. Combat items remain central to races, and a Frenzy mode temporarily grants unlimited use of a single item alongside invincibility. Beyond standard races, bonus challenge courses such as "Vs. Mega Bowser" and "Goomba Takedown" introduce alternative objectives that require different strategies. Players collect drivers, karts, and gliders to build competitive combinations, earn Grand Stars and badges through races and challenges, and compete in global leaderboards where high scores determine online rankings.
