Koopa Cape returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]]. The track overall has a more mountainous appearance, with the cliff sides being taller and the color of the mountain being changed from gray to tan. The starting banner's design has been changed, now being a large, red metal sign with the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo and a [[Green Shell]] on top of it that bounces back and forth. The starting banner is also supported by two [[Warp Pipe]]s. Both the large green Koopa Shell in the background and the half-pipes from the original ''Mario Kart Wii'' version of the course have been re-added, whilst the [[Koopa Troopa]] head at the entrance to the cave has been removed. The cup sign has been removed due to the track appearing in different cups. The "Turn Left" sign has been replaced with a Sunshine Parts advertisement, while the "Turn Right" sign has been replaced with a Red Shell Strike Equipment advertisement. An additional half-pipe was implemented in the underwater section, allowing racers to jump out of the water. The water currents are noticeably weaker in this version of the track, likely to accommodate the controls of the game and the reverse version of the course - which adds [[hot-air balloon]]s. The Maw-Rays in the background of the underwater section have been removed, though there are now more plants in the background. The course uses its original music from ''Mario Kart Wii'', but the second variant of the theme for the brook section remains absent like in ''Mario Kart 7''.

The course also appears as '''Koopa Cape R''' (reversed), '''Koopa Cape T''' (with ramps), and '''Koopa Cape R/T''' (reversed with ramps); the first two debuted alongside the normal variant in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (May 2022)|May 2022 Peach vs. Bowser Tour]], while the last debuted in the [[New Year's Tour (2023)|2023 New Year's Tour]].

In the R variant, racers use a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] to get up to the river from the pipe, and there are two [[Cheep Cheep]]s jumping on the river. In the T variant, the two ramps near the first patch of grass are gone as well as the glide ramp; there is instead a glide ramp towards the end of the pipe section. In the R/T variant, racers skip the pipe section entirely, instead driving on [[Kanaami Road]] above the water until they glide up to the river.


In the game files for ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', there is an intro to the underwater version of the course's music that is not present in the ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' or ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' version of the course. It is not heard anywhere in-game, not even in the [[Glider Challenge]] on Koopa Cape, which starts underwater but uses the normal intro.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Mario_Kart_Tour#Unheard_Wii_Koopa_Cape_Underwater_Intro Mario Kart Tour § Unheard Wii Koopa Cape Underwater Intro].
