Every track, built by hand

Harbour towns and giant kitchens, real places around the world, tributes to legendary circuits and worlds no map shows. Each has its own music, light and a set-piece that changes the race lap by lap.

Lantern Cup

Home and harvest · 4 races

Four warm, generous tracks to learn the drift and find the shortcuts: a harbour town before its lantern festival, a giant’s kitchen, a lavender valley at harvest and a mushroom forest that glows at night.

  1. Aerial view of karts on a seaside circuit beside a harbour, a raised drawbridge and colourful hillside houses

    Race through a pastel harbour town as it gets ready for its lantern festival. Over three laps the town lights up, and the last one ends under fireworks.

    Tiny karts loose in a giant’s kitchen while the household sleeps in. Lap by lap the house wakes up: the kettle, the radio, then the alarm clock.

    A sunny valley at harvest time. Every lap the harvesters mow a new way through the purple fields, so the fastest line on lap three doesn’t exist on lap one.

    The Terrace Leap. Launch off the village terrace wall and the whole purple valley opens up below you.

  4. Karts race at night on a road edged with glowing green lines beneath giant luminous mushrooms and a full moon

    Glowing mushroom forest under a big moon

    A hushed forest at night, where giant mushroom caps glow and the moss lights up as you pass. By lap three the whole forest is in bloom.

    Boost flames under neon-glowing mushroom caps (Glimmerhollow)
    The Lumen Wave A band of light pours down the falls and along the pond. Catch it and the forest pulls you along.

Grand Tour Cup

    A fast forest circuit of sweepers and real elevation, with cycling fans on the big climb. A shower rolls in on lap two, then the road dries one line at a time.

Wonder Cup

Beyond the map · 5 races

The toughest five: a frozen lake that changes every lap, a dam that floods on the last one, a city that folds itself up, a baby’s dream in the clouds and the grand finale, Everfold, one road through six realities.

  1. Two karts race across an icy track between snow-covered pines and mountains
    1/5

    Frostcut

    Frozen mountain lake during the ice harvest

    1.44 km

    Start on top of a giant dam in a red-rock canyon and dive down its dry spillway, round a full-circle helix and over a jump. On the final lap, the gates open.

    A stone city on a floating island rearranges itself around the race: streets fold up on hinges, a clocktower spirals you down its face, and the city turns upside down.
