Rival: Difference between revisions

''Mario Kart 8'' uses a Rival system similar to its predecessor, with several alterations. A set rival system is present only in the Grand Prix mode of the game; all other modes, including single player VS and battle are not affected and have randomized CPU opponents. Furthermore, only the original characters from the E3 build of the game receive a set system of rivals (Mario, Luigi, Peach, [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], Yoshi, Wario, Donkey Kong, Bowser, Koopa Troopa, [[Waluigi]], Toad, and [[Toadette]]). The rest of the playable characters do not have a rival system of any sort, and all of their opponents in any modes are randomized. If there is more than one player participating in a Grand Prix, the first player's character determines whether there is a rival system or not, and what specific rivals the game gives the character. If other players choose the rival characters, the rivals are replaced by another, random character.

''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' uses the same system, however more characters have been given rivals though a few don’t have any rivals at all.
