Start the engines, polish the shells, and go! Mario Kart 8 brings back your favourite party racing game, with new features and graphics.

Then, choose between the 48 tracks – besides a whole bunch of new ones there are famous tracks like Yoshi Valley and Donut Plains. Of course, even the infamous Rainbow Road is there. Finally – race! Navigate the track obstacles, pick the power-ups and shoot the other as you race to victory.
