Mario Kart Tour's tours are inspired by real-world location. The first city course is based on New York City. The map is available from today and will be available until October 8 2019. During this tour, gamers have the opportunity to collect Pauline, the mayor of New Donk City.

 

The in-game items such as karts and gliders are also inspired by New York City. Gamers can collect these items through Rubies which can be obtained as milestone rewards. You can also pay real money to collect these Rubies. Nintendo plans to roll out more maps like New Donk City tours. The company is planning to add tours based on cities like Tokyo and Pairs.
