'''''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''''' is a [[Genre#Racing|racing]] game in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series for the [[Nintendo Switch]] which was first released on April 28, 2017. The game is the first ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' game overall to be released for the Nintendo Switch. It is an enhanced [[Reissue#Ports|port]] of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' for the [[Wii U]]. The base game has additional features such as several new characters and an overhauled [[Battle Mode]] with new courses and modes. First teased in the Switch's announcement video on October 20, 2016, the game was formally announced as part of the Nintendo Switch presentation on January 13, 2017.

From 2022 to the end of 2023, new race courses and returning characters<ref name=Characters>Business Wire (February 8, 2023).

An edition of the game that has the Booster Course Pass activated from the start, titled the '''''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' Bundle (Game + Booster Course Pass)''', is available for purchase digitally.<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/mario-kart-8-deluxe-bundle-game-plus-booster-course-pass-switch/ Mario Kart™ 8 Deluxe Bundle (Game + Booster Course Pass)]. nintendo.com.

The game features most of the base and DLC content of ''Mario Kart 8''. Content excluded includes [[Miiverse]] compatibility, [[stamp]]s, and the ability to upload [[Highlight Reel]]s on YouTube - all of which were discontinued on the Wii U version when Miiverse was terminated on November 7, 2017. [[Battle Mode]] has been significantly altered.

Characters can now carry up to two items at once, even if they do not equip the first item, and the game features the return of the [[Item Box#Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe|Double Item Box]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. The game also introduces Smart Steering and Auto-Accelerate for beginners; the former makes staying on the track easier by automatically steering the vehicle away from edges on the track, while the latter makes the vehicle automatically accelerate (though this is not available in Battle Mode). If the Smart Steering mode is on, the player's vehicle will have a black antenna sticking out of its rear end; this antenna blinks yellow and bends when Smart Steering is in effect. Smart Steering and Auto-Accelerate can be toggled on and off individually for each player in the vehicle part selection menu and in the pause menu. There is also an additional level of [[Mini-Turbo]], called Ultra Mini-Turbo, denoted by purple (pink in the British English version) sparks that appear after the orange sparks. This new level of Mini-Turbo can only be used if Smart Steering is off.

200cc engine class for Time Trials has been added (separately recorded from the 150cc Time Trials). There are new [[Ghost (Mario Kart series)|staff ghosts]] for 200cc, while some of the 150cc staff ghosts have slightly different times compared to the original.

The game also features an in-game guide, directly accessible from the game's menu; this guide explains various techniques, Battle Mode, and the functions of each item.

The vehicle parts that are exclusive to downloadable content in ''Mario Kart 8'' (i.e. parts included within the [[Mercedes-Benz x Mario Kart 8|Mercedes-Benz × ''Mario Kart 8'']], [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']], and [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] add-on packs) are now accessible in the base game and are randomly unlocked by collecting [[coin]]s during gameplay.

The overall game difficulty has been reduced, as CPUs slow down closer to the player when compared to the original version, and do not charge Mini Turbos or Super Mini Turbos as quickly. The default speed of the CPUs in the Normal and Easy difficulties has also been reduced. CPU players now have a chance to obtain [[Triple Red Shells]] from [[Item Box]]es, but this primarily only happens in the Shells Only item setting.

Online lobbies have been changed in that players playing Worldwide or Regional VS Races between 1000 VR and 3000 VR will be randomized either a 100cc or 150cc race, and starting at over 3000 VR, players will now be randomized a 150cc, Mirror, or 200cc race. The engine class for the upcoming race in a race lobby is now shown in the lobby as the course is selected, via a "50", "100", "150", mirrored "150" (for Mirror), or "200" icon in the bottom right of the selected course icon. This extends to online battle lobbies, which will display a symbol of a yellow balloon (for Balloon Battle), a [[Potted Piranha Plant|potted Piranha Plant]] (for Renegade Roundup), a [[coin]] (for Coin Runners), a [[Shine Sprite]] (for Shine Thief), or a [[Bob-omb]] (for Bob-omb Blast) to denote which battle mode is about to be played. There is also an option to change character and vehicle combinations in an online lobby without having to leave; this is done by pressing {{button|switch|Y}} ({{button|switch|jc-left}} when playing with a single Joy-Con) during the course selection of an online lobby. The [[Mii]] characters that represent the players in online lobbies wear racing suits, unlike in the original version in which they wore their regular outfits. The Mii of the previous race or battle's winner will also wear a [[crown]] identical to the one worn by the first-place player in Battle Mode. The newly added wireless and LAN modes use a very similar lobby to the online lobby, albeit visually set in a garage rather than on a [[Earth|globe]].

Players can now see the lap count or timer when spectating an online race or battle respectively. However, it is no longer possible to see the lap count when crossing the finish line nor the full results in multiplayer (including online lobbies) at the end of the race while watching Highlight Reels via [[Mario Kart TV]].

The game now mostly renders in native 1920x1080 resolution in TV mode (sometimes switching to native 1728x972), and always renders at native 1280x720 resolution in Tabletop and Handheld Mode, instead of the dynamic 1280x720/1152x648 rendering resolution used in the original Wii U version. Motion blur when boosting is present in LAN and online mode, and in earlier builds, it was also present in splitscreen multiplayer.<ref>{{media link|MK8D 4-Player Gameplay Screenshot.png|Screenshot of the starting boost in a four-player split-screen VS Race}}.</ref> The shadows present in the game are of higher quality in multiplayer.

If a [[Blooper]] is about to ink the player as they cross the finish line, the player will now still get inked.<ref>Nintendo World Report (January 14, 2017). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaPqoUWLpMc&feature=youtu.be&t=3m15s Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Wario's Gold Mine - Nintendo Switch Off-Screen Footage]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved February 19, 2017.</ref> This is unlike the Wii U version, where the Blooper or the ink disappeared instead. Characters also no longer verbally react when they are inked by a Blooper.

The course map color for the race courses is now white instead of blue, including the maps of all three [[Rainbow Road]]s and {{classic-link|GCN|Baby Park}}, which originally had multiple colors. However, the battle courses have color-shaded areas and lines on their maps to make it easier for players to determine where they are. The character icons on the course map are now slightly larger, more detailed, and of a higher resolution. In a race, the first place player no longer has a crown on their mini-map icon, though they still do in battles. When a [[Bob-omb]] or [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] explodes, its explosion is now shown on the course map. When playing with the map enabled in local splitscreen multiplayer, there will only be one map in the center of the screen, rather than each player having their own copy of the map like in the Wii U version.  

All courses that feature confetti flying around the [[Finish Line (object)|start/finish line]], such as [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart 8)|Mario Circuit]], now also have confetti on the ground of the course near it.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F2djsuZuTg&feature=youtu.be&t=3m50s</ref>

When using the rearview mirror, the character will now move their eyes slightly to the left to look back, like how they do in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''; however, their eyes will stay looking to the left as long as the rearview is active, rather than switching back after a second like in ''Mario Kart Wii''.

[[Inkling|Inkling Girl]], [[Isabelle]], and [[Link]] now appear on the loading screen, and the game also has reduced loading times when compared to the Wii U game; as a result, the second set of characters that originally appeared on the loading screen are almost never seen before the game finishes loading.

When playing with teams, flags colored to correspond to the teams are added behind the vehicles. If Smart Steering is on, then the Smart Steering antenna serves as the pole of the flag. These flags do not appear in Balloon Battle nor Bob-omb Blast, as the color of the balloons show the teams in these modes.

The biggest change made between ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' and the original release of ''Mario Kart 8'' is the [[Battle Mode]]. Battle Mode now returns to the arena-based battle and unlike previous games, each player starts with five balloons, as opposed to three. Another addition to Battle Mode is that the character in the lead now wears a crown, unlike in ''Mario Kart 8'' where the crown is displayed only on the HUD map. Additionally, players now start out with zero points instead of ''Mario Kart 8''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s default three points, and their balloons do not serve as the remaining three points. Returning from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' is the ability to respawn after all balloons are popped; this causes the player's total score to halve and the player respawns with three balloons instead of five. A new addition to this mode is the feature to tell exactly which character hit whom, which appears on the bottom of the screen. Furthermore, after getting hit, players now have about 1.5 seconds of invincibility frames, unlike in ''Mario Kart 8''. The item options also appear to have been updated; alongside the "Frantic Items" option, which chooses rare items more frequently, a "Skilled Items" option is also available for selection, which chooses only offensive items; in this mode, powerful items appear less frequently, similar to ''Mario Kart Wii''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s "Strategic" ("Basic" in the PAL version) item option.

All base and DLC characters from ''Mario Kart 8'' are present in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. Additionally, ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' features characters not present in ''Mario Kart 8''. Of these, returning characters include [[Bowser Jr.]], [[King Boo]], and [[Dry Bones]], who were last playable in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', [[Gold Mario]] (as a variant of [[Metal Mario]]), who was previously playable in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', and [[Birdo]], who was added with the fourth wave of the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. At least five additional returning characters will be available in future waves of the Booster Course Pass after the fourth wave.<ref name="Characters" /> In addition, two new non-''Mario'' characters are included, being the [[Inkling]]s from ''[[inkipedia:Splatoon|Splatoon]]''. Players can choose either the Inkling Girl or Inkling Boy, and they include three selectable colors each; additionally, the two Villagers have also been separated, after being present in the same character slot (with the female Villager being considered a variant of the male one) in ''Mario Kart 8''.<ref>GameXplain (April 10, 2017). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjAWXPWCJzU Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - New Pink Sparks, 200cc Trial Mode, & All Characters Unlocked!]. YouTube. Retrieved April 10, 2017.</ref> Excluding character variants, there are currently a total of 43 playable characters in this game.

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.

Characters and variants playable in this game that were not playable in the original ''Mario Kart 8'' are listed in ''italics''.

Like in ''Mario Kart 8'', characters have set [[Rival|rivals]] that consistently appear when racing in Grand Prix races. They are once again restricted to Grand Prix only, not appearing in single player versus or battle mode. Unlike the previous game, more characters have rivals: the twelve characters from the previous game who had rivals retain their rivals in this game, while other characters range from having one to two rivals each, or even none at all.
