There is only one unlockable character in this game, that being Gold Mario. He is unlocked by clearing all cups of the 200cc Grand Prix. Additionally, the version 1.6.0 update added a new variant for Link based on his appearance in ''The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild''. When Gold Mario is unlocked and ''Breath of the Wild'' Link is downloaded, they become the default variations of their character, while Metal Mario and ''Skyward Sword'' Link are relegated to alternate costumes. Despite the ''Breath of the Wild'' Link being treated as an alternate costume for Link in menus and in promotional material, he is actually treated as a separate character in-game, as both Links can appear in races or battles as CPU simultaneously even if neither has been selected. | There is only one unlockable character in this game, that being Gold Mario.
