You can always take on new, uncharted territory in Mario Kart,Ā  from race tracks to rainbow roads, and now — the streets of Vancouver.

Mario Kart Tour for Android and iOS is known to regularly feature real-world locations in its courses, and last week, announced it would be adding a Vancouver course as one of its locations, starting this week.

With the game now available, we’ll leave it to you to decide how accurate these landmarks are:
