Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)

The Peach vs. Bowser Tour is the seventieth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on May 18, 2022 and will end on May 31, 2022. This tour is the seventh to feature a Team Rally event, pitting Team Peach against Team Bowser, as well as being the second Team Rally to feature teams from previous tours: Team Peach from the Peach vs. Daisy Tour and the Mario vs. Peach Tour, and Team Bowser from the Bowser vs. DK Tour, both the winners of their respective Team Rally tours. This tour also introduces Koopa Cape from Mario Kart Wii as a classic course, as well as Dr. Peach and Dr. Bowser from Dr. Mario World as new drivers as part of a two-tour Doctor Fest event with the previous tour, the Doctor Tour. Two new variants of the Capsule Kart are also introduced. This is the first Team Rally tour to introduce more than one driver.

Alongside the introduction of Dr. Peach and Dr. Bowser as part of the Doctor Fest event, this tour will retain the Doctor Challenges that started in the previous tour while also featuring upgraded items in the Token Shop, including Mario (Classic), King Bob-omb, the Wildfire Flyer, the Koopa King, and a High-End pipe.

A new Mii Racing Suit based on a ? Block was released as part of Wave 6 of Mii Racing Suits, making this the first Mii Racing Suit introduced after Wave 1 in the Mii Tour to not be based on a character. The ? Block Mii Racing Suit can be earned by placing 1st in ranked in tier 50 or above. For the first time, the Mii Racing Suit Shop only features returning Mii Racing Suits from previous waves.

This tour's Coin Rush course is Wii Koopa Cape. The menu's background features a mountain and a large green Koopa Shell from Koopa Cape as the landmark for this tour.

Starting from this tour, Chargin' Chuck is available in regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe.

For the first time following the introduction of the Tokens Aplenty event in the Autumn Tour, there are no Tokens Aplenty events in this tour, though event tokens appear more regularly.

Starting from day 2, players have to finish a race in the earliest incomplete course that is not in any of the ranked cups using the driver shown on the course's thumbnail every day to obtain the corresponding reward in the table below. Once all of the courses are completed, the courses are selected at random.

Peach vs. Bowser Showdown
On May 18, 2022, a "Peach vs. Bowser Showdown" contest was launched by the official Mario Kart Tour social media accounts to promote the Peach vs. Bowser Tour. Across two rounds, the accounts would ask users to choose between several subjects related to either Team Peach or Team Bowser, with the English and Japanese Twitter accounts opening a poll for each round so as to tally the user choices as a percentage. The team whose related subject garnered the most votes by the end of a round's poll period would win the round. Unlike in the previously-held Wario vs. Waluigi Showdown, the teams in the Peach vs. Bowser Showdown were not awarded points for winning a round, and the contest did not conclude with an overall winner.

The following are the rounds in this showdown, with final vote percentages from both the English and the Japanese Twitter polls. For each round, winning subjects have their vote percentages written in bold and their bars colored blue.
