RACER TOURNAMENTS
In a Tournament, each Racer from that Season has a set of Racer Tournaments. Each Racer Tournament will consist of four races for each of three difficulty-based Cups. Players can play any tournament for the Racers they have unlocked. For example, if players have Racer Mike Wazowski unlocked, they can start racing in his specific Racer Tournaments inside the Monsters, Inc. Tournaments.
In each Racer Tournament, players will earn Vault Points and Trophies based on their placement. Players must place at least in third to start earning points and Trophies. The three Tournaments break down as follows:
- Novice Cup, with the Recommended Racer Level 10.
- Pro Cup, with the Recommended Racer Level 20.
- Super Cup, with the Recommended Racer Level 30.
All Tournaments will have a common Daily Tries system through Tournament Tickets. Players who have not purchased a Vault Pass will have 4 tickets available to them across the Tournaments. If a player has purchased a Vault Pass, they will have unlimited tickets in the Tournaments tied to that World.
THE VAULT PASS
Each previous Season’s Tournaments will be attached to a “Vault Pass”, which will bring back rewards from that Season’s Golden Pass. Players will advance in the Vault Pass by participating in the Tournaments tied to that Season and earning Vault Points. Similar to the Golden Pass, the Vault Pass will have both free and premium rewards, as players will be able to purchase the Vault Pass. Each Season’s Vault Pass will have similar rewards to the Season’s original Golden Pass, including Racer and Crew unlocks and vanity items, as well as new exclusive kart colors. The premium track of each Vault Pass will be available as a direct purchase for $7.99/€7.99 or equivalent in local currency. A Vault Pass Bundle will also be available as a direct purchase for $15.99/€15.99 or equivalent in local currency, allowing you to skip the first 15 tiers immediately.NEW GOLDEN PASS & SEASON TOUR STRUCTURE
