Get to Know About Crossing Cup

Crossing Cup sits in the Mario Kart series as a four-race set that blends a throwback feel with an Animal Crossing theme. It pairs two classic returns with two new tracks and keeps the pace tight from start to finish. Each race pushes quick decisions and rewards tidy driving.

It opens with Baby Park, a tight oval with seven laps that turns traffic into nonstop item battles. Cheese Land follows with sandy curves, Chain Chomps, and risky shortcuts that pay off with a boost. Wild Woods climbs into treetop paths with flowing corners, shallow water, and ramps that feed trick boosts. The finale is Animal Crossing, a village circuit that rotates between spring, summer, autumn, and winter with distinct music, scenery, and roadside details.

To clear the cup, bank coins early and hold a defensive item when you lead. Hug the inside in Baby Park and use the pull from karts ahead to pass, then save a mushroom in Cheese Land for a desert cut after the big hills. Link clean drifts through Wild Woods to string steady speed bursts, and in Animal Crossing read the turns by sight lines and line up for boost pads on the long stretches to finish strong.
