Mario Kart: Koopa's Challenge will be an augmented reality experience. So while the karts are on rails, park-goers will be able to aim turtle shells and toss banana peels in AR.

For roughly $30, attendees can buy a "Power-Up Band" to track their "score" as they explore all of the "dynamic activities throughout the land," Universal stated in a press release.
Power-Band customers will gain exclusive access to a "dramatic boss battle with Bowser Jr." once they've collected enough points.
