Any kart that makes contact with an opponent's bomb or gets blown up by the explosion will lose stars. Every character can hold up to five of these explosives, and can throw them forwards or drop them backwards. The bombs can be obtained by running over an Item Box, which only contains Bob-ombs. Characters use Bob-ombs to hit their opponents and score stars to win. In this case, no one is eliminated and the clock resets as usual. The clock resets itself to a lower time and the battle continues until at least one is left (there are nine sprites to avoid a tie, but it is possible to have two players with four sprites trying to get that last one on the course when time expires or have three players with three sprites each. Anyone with or tied with the lowest Shine total when the clock hits zero is eliminated.
In the meantime, a clock ticks down to zero. The sprite then moves to a random spot for someone else to grab. Players need to capture the Shine Sprites, and to avoid being hit, as it causes a player to lose one sprite. Ten Shine Sprites are scattered onto the course at the beginning. However, players are still able to drive and attack other players as a Ghost, so a player with a high score and no balloons is still able to win.Īfter a 12 year absence after Mario Kart DS, this mode returns with new features. Balloons can never be regained unless one is stolen from another player using a Mushroom , and if all balloons are lost points can no longer be lost or obtained. All the racers start with three balloons and must use the items from the Item Boxes to take away a balloon from their opponents. The classic battle style consists on popping opponents' balloons to score, using the items from the Item Boxes. Unlike in Mario Kart 8 and similarly to the other past games, the game features fourteen all new arenas, half are Retro and the other half are Nitro. The player can choose one of five types of battles available for play.
Nothing can be unlocked in this game mode, and only the already unlocked racetracks in Grand Prix will be available here. Races can be customized in this mode by adjusting different settings, which include choosing which items appear, CPU difficulty, Team or Solo racing, engine class and the requirements to win races. Vs Race is a multiplayer mode that can be played locally with up to 4 players. Players can also exchange their Ghosts with other players, compare records and also race against them. When doing so, the player's records will be saved as Ghost, allowing them to compete against their own Ghosts and see if they can exceed their previous record. Players are allowed to race in a course of their choice (if it has been unlocked already) and complete all its laps in the fastest time possible. Players now have the option to do a multiplayer Grand Prix up to four players, unlike in most previous home console Mario Kart games, where only up to two players can race in Grand Prix. Only the Mushroom and Shell Cups are available at the start of the game, with the others being unlocked after completing the cup before, and are available in every engine class after being unlocked. Players choose a cup, which takes them through four consecutive races of set order in that cup. In addition, and for the first time in the series, a 200cc engine class has been added as of the version 4.0 update, which is available by default alongside Mirror as of version 4.1. Like past games the 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc engine classes are available by default, and completing 150cc unlocks Mirror for the former three, however, Grand Prix rankings carry over to the lower engine classes after being completed on a higher engine class. Mario Kart 8's Grand Prix works similar to past instalments. There are various game modes for Mario Kart 8 Switch Circuit. Likewise, while officially no automatic drifting mechanics is in the game, when steering for a while in one direction the vehicle starts skidding, resulting in an angular velocity that, with high enough Handling, matches the one while drifting (and even surpasses that in the case of inside drifting bikes) unless a Jo圜on without motion controls is used, and in the ability to slowly charge Mini-Turbo and Super Mini-Turbo boosts. Inside drifting bikes from Mario Kart Wii return also in this game and continue to have a lower drifting angular velocity range with respect to karts and outside drifting bikes, likely to compensate for the altered drifting mechanics.
Most of the elements used from Mario Kart 7 return, and function like they did in Mario Kart 8. Players pick a character of three weight classes and drive vehicles of varying stats, strengths, and weaknesses around an obstacle course-like racetrack, in an attempt to finish first of the twelve racers, the number of racers used in Mario Kart Wii.
The gameplay maintains the traditional elements of previous Mario Kart games, mostly from the two recent instalments on the Wii, Nintendo 3DS and Wii U respectively.
