Rally (event)
A rally is an event in which racers drive along multiple routes spanning the continent in the Knockout Tour mode in Mario Kart World. Rallies feature multiple checkpoints between the starting point and ending points and the music that plays is determined by the neighboring race track for each checkpoint and routinely changes throughout the rally. The final checkpoint in a rally is always a standard lap race on one of the game's race tracks. Routes taken in rallies sometimes may overlap various race tracks throughout, while other times they may not intersect one another at all.
As of Version 1.8.0, there are twelve rallies in the game. The first eight rallies mirror their Grand Prix counterparts:
- The Golden Rally and Mushroom Cup are both represented with mushrooms.
- The Ice Rally and Flower Cup are both represented with flowers.
- The Moon Rally and Star Cup are both represented with celestial bodies.
- The Spiny Rally and Shell Cup are both represented with Koopa shells.
- The Cherry Rally and Banana Cup are both represented with fruits.
- The Acorn Rally and Leaf Cup are both represented with flight-based power-ups.
- The Cloud Rally and Lightning Cup are both represented with sky-related objects.
- The Heart Rally and Special Cup are represented with a crown and an item wearing a crown.
Four more rally routes will also be released in the future.
