Mario Kart Arcade GP DX

Mario Kart Arcade GP DX is an upcoming Mario Kart game for Japanese arcades being developed by Namco Bandai with partnership with Nintendo. It is the sequel to Mario Kart Arcade GP 2.

Gameplay
Before starting a race, the player can take their photography and decorate it with some included features, such as a Mario cap and mustache and a pirate suit. Grand Prix, Clone Battle and two-players modes are confirmed. The main feature of the game is that players can now play in cooperative, similar to Mario Kart: Double Dash!! in that a player is the driver and the second shoots items. Cooperative play is only possible by gaining a special power-up which transforms the player's kart into a tank that will drive and the second player is called to control the turret and shoot unlimited amounts of Green Shells at any direction for a limited period of time. Additionally, gameplay elements from Mario Kart 7 such as the use of gliders and underwater courses are present.
