Gameplay
Basic gameplay is retained from the previous installments, in that players race across various tracks while using items spread across the track to gain an edge over opponents, though it is most similar to Mario Kart 7. Like Mario Kart Wii, twelve racers are able to race at once instead of eight, though like in Mario Kart 7 players are once again able to fly through the air with gliders and driver underwater, though new to this installment is anti-gravity, allowing players to drive across the walls and ceilings of a track at specified points. Kart customization also returns from Mario Kart 7, though this has been expanded upon to include bikes, returning from Mario Kart Wii, and a new kart type, ATVs. In addition to races, a battle mode is also available.
When playing online, players can race or battle against a group of random players online or with friends, or join tournaments, which are similar in setup to Mario Kart 7. Players are also able to save their replays and post them online via the "Mario Kart TV" feature.
