Bone-Dry Dunes takes place in a desert filled with twisting canyons, shifting rivers of sand, and the bones of ancient beasts embedded in rocky outcrops. Obviously, instead of studying these bones and excavating them to be placed in a museum, a race track was built over them instead.
The result of a genetic experiment, which created a cruel, violent being with destructive tendencies, Mewtwo remains one of the most wildly popular Pokémon even to this day.
Cloudtop Cruise takes players on an adventure through the clouds. Fluffy white clouds, lush green vines, dark thunderheads, a fleet of airships… there’s so much to look at, so much visual variety, and it feels like something different is going on around every corner of this track.
Although Jurassic World introduced several new prehistoric reptiles (and one that never existed in real life, the Indominus rex), fan-favourite dinosaurs also made a welcome return – including the iconic T. rex.
Beneath the Dormitory on the Spencer estate is the Aqua Ring – an underground aquarium of sorts where Umbrella scientists conducted research on aquatic animals. In particular, great white sharks were injected with the t-Virus, creating a new B.O.W. codenamed F1-03 Neptune after the God of the Sea in Roman mythology.
Welcome to the beautiful Yoshi Valley, a nature reserve dedicated to wild Yoshis. There’s lots of gorgeous scenery to admire here – a lovely grassy meadow, a cascading waterfall, and a rushing river can all be seen as you race around this mountain valley under the late afternoon sun.
The Lost World takes place on Isla Sorna, or Site B, another dinosaur-inhabited island – this time, with no fences in sight. And whereas the first Jurassic Park movie featured one T. rex, The Lost World, in the typical sequel fashion of going bigger and bolder than their predecessors, has multiple T. rexes.
Music Park is a whimsical course that takes place on a winding circuit floating in space. As you would expect from the name, pretty much everything on this track is music-themed.
In the southern reaches of Deadwind Pass, a thick, massive protrusion of white stone and dark mortar rises into the sky, scaling higher than the surrounding hills.. This is Karazhan, once the seat of Medivh, the Last Guardian.
Sherbet Land is a beautiful course covered in a blanket of snow. Fireworks can be seen in the night sky above, along with a dancing, ethereal aurora. Don’t be lulled into complacency, though – the ice is very slippery, and careless driving may result in multi-kart pileups.
