Template:MKTTour The Wild West Tour was the twenty-third tour of Mario Kart Tour that began on July 29, 2020 and ended on August 11, 2020. Due to its theme around the Wild West, the tour introduced a cowboy variant of Wario, while also adding in the Cact-X from Mario Kart 7, with N64 Kalimari Desert 2 acting as the signature course. The tour also marked Nabbit's playable debut in the Mario Kart series. The menu's background featured the mountainous train tunnel from Kalimari Desert 2 as the landmark for this tour.

Starting with this tour, the last two free pipe launches are reserved for the second week's spotlight pipe, instead of all pipe launches used for the first week's spotlight pipe. After clearing every cup within a tour, an ending movie plays with several results from the player's gameplay showing. After the movie, the player is rewarded with an All-Clear Pipe that, while similar to previous free pipe launches, only fires a High-End character, kart, or glider at random. Additionally, it also introduced a limited-time event for the second half, where players can collect event tokens throughout all available courses within the tour for items in its Event Shop.

Notes

The Wild West Tour reuses the Dry Bowser Cup's bonus challenge from the New York Tour for this tour's Baby Rosalina Cup, the Rosalina Cup's bonus challenge from the Halloween Tour for this tour's Donkey Kong Cup, the Bowser Jr. Cup's bonus challenge from the Winter Tour for this tour's Wendy Cup, and the Baby Luigi Cup's bonus challenge from the Ice Tour for this tour's Pauline Cup.

Signature kart sets

In every cup, the driver which the cup is themed about is raised a tier on each track, making them a three- or two-item driver on that course. Up until the Ice Tour, a kart and a glider were also given a bonus for each race in the cup.
