This version of Rainbow Road returns as the fourth and last course of the [[Moon Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] DLC for ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. It is based on its appearance in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', albeit with a graphical overhaul, giving the course a neon aesthetic, and boost [[Ring (Mario Kart series)|rings]] have been added on top of the [[Dash Panel]]s on the Saturn-like planet’s rings. Also, the boost rings resemble the ones in {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}}. Some of the star gates the player drives through are now silver instead of gold. The rainbow arch on the start-and-finish truss is now a complete circle. The rails on the race track are now formed by the stars from {{classic|N64|Rainbow Road}}. The planets throughout the course further resemble real life planets, such as {{wp|Neptune}} and {{wp|Jupiter}}. The moon section is now in [[anti-gravity]].<ref>Nintendo of America (November 21, 2022).
