Bangkok Rush returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 4 of the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. It appears as the first course of the [[Boomerang Cup]]. It serves as an expanded and combined version of the three routes for the course. Similarly to {{classic-link|Tour|London Loop}}, the course is noticeably brighter and paler compared to how it appeared in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It is also more foggy compared to the ''Tour'' version. The [[Inky Piranha Plant]]s below the {{wp|BTS Skytrain}} rails have been replaced with the [[Piranha Plant]]s in their ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' design and functionality. The {{wp|Asiatique|Sky Asiatique}} now spins, as opposed to remaining stationary. Fireworks have been added to the background.<ref name=Wave4>任天堂ホームページ (March 2, 2023). [https://youtu.be/MOgafnfxo2Y Tour バンコクラッシュ]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 3, 2023.</ref> [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s have been added as spectators near the {{wp|Talat Rotfai}}. Jump Boosts can no longer be performed going up the parking garage or the sky train rail. The minimap has also been rotated 90 degrees clockwise. The curbs at the beginning of the Bangkok Rush 2 route and at the end of the Bangkok Rush 3 route are no longer offroad.

The first lap of the course follows Bangkok Rush, with racers starting at the {{wp|Grand Palace}} facing the {{wp|Wat Arun}} and taking a left onto the {{wp|Chao Phraya River}}. After another left and then right at the {{wp|Democracy Monument}}, racers come to the {{wp|Maeklong Railway|Maeklong Railway Market}}, with the option to drive atop the market canopies or along the railway below; the wooden plank path leading to the left stretch of canopies is now absent, although that side remains accessible via a [[Jump Boost]]. A gradual U-turn then leads racers to the BTS Skytrain rails, with the option to go atop or below them; four descending paths are now available to racers at the end of the top path (one from Bangkok Rush, one from Bangkok Rush 2, one accessible in both routes, and one previously unused). Exiting the railway area, another right turn leads back to the finish line. Lap 2 largely follows the route of Bangkok Rush 3, but begins with a brief portion of Bangkok Rush 2, as racers take a right instead of a left at the starting area, then take a left and drive through a street lined with markets. [[Arrow field]]s force racers to keep going straight towards a glider ramp that takes them past the {{wp|Giant Swing}} and Democracy Monument; racers can alternatively drop to the ground below and drive around the Monument. A new shortcut has been added to the right of the monument; racers can glide over a fence and use a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] to get through a grass patch and onto the main track again. They then take a gradual right onto a side-street lined with Dash Panels and [[Sidestepper]]s (replacing the parked tuk-tuks seen in ''Tour'') adjacent to the Chao Phraya River. Another right leads racers back to the starting line in the reverse direction. In a similar manner to lap 2, lap 3 largely follows Bangkok Rush 2, but utilizes the opening portion of the third variant, as racers take two lefts underneath the BTS Skytrain rails and then a right to get back to the market street. They turn left and spiral through a parking garage, and afterwards have the option of bouncing atop or driving under the tents in {{wp|Talat Rotfai}}. Another right leads racers to the BTS Skytrain rails, and as with lap 1 they have the option of driving atop or below the rails, with all paths leading to a right turn before reaching the finish line.

Bangkok Rush is one of three courses from ''Mario Kart Tour'' to appear in the fourth wave, alongside {{classic-link|Tour|Amsterdam Drift}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Singapore Speedway}}. It is also the only city track from ''Tour'' to have turquoise arrow fields instead of red, and one of two courses in general with this distinction, the other being {{classic-link|N64|Kalimari Desert}}.
