Battle Stadium is a battle course in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, appearing as one of the new courses added to the game. Battle Stadium bears a resemblance to Mario Kart Stadium, using some of the assets from the track—it also repurposes elements of Excitebike Arena and DS Wario Stadium with alterations. It is in a similar shape to an "8", signifying the game's title, with ramps in several areas along with an anti-gravity ring around the middle. The course is fairly simplistic in design. Underneath the Battle Stadium appears to be a small town with several other vehicles driving along the roads and the local multiplayer menu background. At one end of the stage, there is a statue of Mario on a Standard ATV, while on the other side there is a statue of Bowser on a Badwagon. Brands around the course correspond to what side of the stage it is in, such as Mario Motors on Mario's side and Bowser Oil on Bowser's side. This possibly signifies the rivalry between the two characters.
In Mario Kart World, an arrangement of the course's theme plays on the Peach Stadium battle course.[1]
