So, you may or may not know that there’s only one secret character to unlock in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
It’s Gold Mario and unlocking him is quite simple, yet also difficult.
In order to unlock Gold Mario, you’ll need to complete all 12 cups in 200cc. The good news is that in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on Nintendo Switch, you’ll have 200cc as well as all cups unlocked from the start, so you can go straight to 200cc if you feel confident enough.
Whilst there’s only one character to unlock, there’s a bunch of vehicle customisation options that you can unlock by collecting coins. There’s also three new vehicles in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe including two brand new Splatoon vehicles, which are both awesome.
We’ve listed all of the courses below, just in-case you want to keep track manually.
