Which Mario Kart World Battle Mode is based on collecting coins?

Coin Runners is the Mario Kart World Battle Mode based on collecting coins.

The objective distinguishes Coin Runners from Balloon Battle, another Battle Mode in the game. Rather than focusing on popping opponents’ balloons, Coin Runners centers on gathering and retaining coins while competing drivers move around the arena.

Coin-based competition has a long history in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart: Double Dash introduced a dedicated Coin Runners battle format, and later games used related coin-collecting mechanics. World continues that tradition within its expanded multiplayer offering.

The mode should not be confused with ordinary race coins. In standard races, coins generally improve a driver’s top speed and can be lost after collisions. Coin Runners makes coin collection itself the central Battle Mode goal.
