Mario Kart Rush is a Mario Kart game for the Nintendo Switch 1. It is the follow-up to Mario Kart 8, a Wii U title which was ported for the Nintendo Switch as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Game modes

There are various game modes for Mario Kart Rush. All modes available on single player (some also on local and online multiplayer) are listed here.

Rush Mode

The game's story mode is called Rush Mode, which takes place in Race Island. During the story, Bowser has created a lookalike of him called "Rainbow Gold Bowser", the mode's main antagonist; however, Rainbow Gold Bowser goes on a rampage, constantly breaking the Rainbow Gem into twelve pieces, and takes over Race Island. In panic, Bowser arrives to explain to the racers why Rainbow Gold Bowser came to life. He realizes that he's in trouble, reluctantly asking the racers to help him. The latter agrees to do so, with Bowser joining them for an adventure.

Battle Mode

Battle Mode returns to the arena-based battle and unlike previous games, each player starts with five balloons, as opposed to three. Additionally, the character in the lead now wears a crown. Therefore, players start out with zero points, and their balloons do not serve as the remaining three points. Returning from Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the ability to respawn after all balloons are popped; this causes the player's total score to halve and the player respawns with three balloons instead of five. Returning from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the feature to tell exactly which character hit whom, which appears on the bottom of the screen. Furthermore, after getting hit, players now have about 1.5 seconds of invincibility frames. Similar to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, players are given a choice on which item they can choose.

There are six different Battle Mode types:

  • Balloon Battle: The classic mode where players use items to pop opponents' balloons or steal them in order to score points. This mode uses the point-based set-up seen in Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
  • Renegade Roundup: A mode in the vein of "cops and robbers", with the racers being divided into two teams. One team, known as "The Authorities", has to use Piranha Plant items (which are permanently attached to the front of their vehicle and only serve to capture the opposing team; they do not operate like the regular item) in order to capture players from the other team, known as "The Renegades". Captured Renegades are placed into one of several jail cells floating above various points on the stage. Remaining Renegades can free their teammates by driving over a key switch placed below the jail cells. The Renegades win if at least one member is still running free when time runs out, and the Authorities win if all of the Renegades get captured. All Authority team members also temporarily lose their ability to capture after being hit by an item and Renegades receive a speed boost and temporary immunity when they are freed from the cells.
  • Bob-omb Blast: A returning mode from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, in which players attack one another using Bob-ombs to score points and can carry up to 10 Bob-ombs. This version follows all of the same rules as Balloon Battle, the difference being that the only items are Bob-ombs.
  • Coin Runners: Originating in Mario Kart Wii, this mode was last seen in Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Players must collect Coins scattered across the course in order to have the most by the end of the match. Plays more akin to the Mario Kart Wii version of the mode, with players having no limit to the amount of coins they can collect, as opposed to the 10-coin limit in the Mario Kart 7 version.
  • Moon Blitz: A new mode where players must collect all of the Power Moons scattered across the course. Whoever gets the most Power Moons wins.
  • Shine Thief: Originating from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, one player must retrieve a Shine Sprite and keep hold of it for about 20 seconds, while the opponents use items against whoever has the Sun to force that player to drop it. The driver holding the shine sprite has a slightly reduced top speed. In Team play, one team must collectively manage to hold on to the Sun for about 30 seconds.

There is also the option to randomly select one of the six available modes by choosing "Random Battle".
