200cc performs shockingly well online, although I feel like I’m having more dropped games overall than I had prior to the 2nd DLC wave. I will say that racing online in 200cc makes me feel a little better about myself as I watch other human players go through the exact same struggles I am. This second DLC pack is great—better than the first—and I highly recommend it.

Critic reviews
- 9.0As expected, it is exhilarating. Also as expected, it takes some getting used to. ...As with DLC Pack 1, Nintendo has shown what great downloadable content can look like and that it doesn't need to arrive on day one or even month one. While not every new track is memorable, there is a consistent quality here and a few of them represent Mario Kart at its best. It was a treat to see other Nintendo properties dip into the game last year and that novelty hasn't worn off yet. This is the future of the series. It has to be.
- 9.0The 200cc addition could be seen as a bit unfair by some. It's a mode that forces you to change your strategy and it's much more complicated to leave a pack of drivers behind if you're not both lucky and highly skilled. But for that very reason, for challenging even the most experienced drivers, it's a welcome addition and something to applaud. If you've not played Mario Kart 8 for some time, it's definitely worth coming back to replay in 200cc - which is a totally free update.
- 8.5La palabra DLC tiene mala fama, pero a veces existen compañías que se empeñan con éxito en hacer que suene de forma diferente. Nintendo es una de ellas. Nos lo demuestra a través de su segundo contenido descargable para Mario Kart 8, con nuevos circuitos, personajes y vehículos que amplían la duración total del título. ...Gracias a ello, tendremos para unos cuantos acelerones más dentro de este gran videojuego.
- 8.0El contenido adicional de este Mario Kart 8 aporta muchos circuitos interesantes, especialmente Big Blue, Bosque Bebé y el de Animal Crossing. Los dos primeros aportan velocidad y frenetismo, mientras que el otro experimenta con la técnica y propone un circuito que veremos cómo cambia con el paso de las estaciones. La nueva cilindrada de 200cc es un revulsivo de Mario Kart 8. Lo convierte en un juego totalmente diferente y nos obliga a estar pendientes del freno, cambiando una forma de jugar a Mario Kart que había durado 25 años.
- 8.0Impossible de résister à l'attrait de ce deuxième DLC. Si les 3 conducteurs et 4 véhicules n'ont pas d'autre prétention que satisfaire les amoureux de diversité cosmétique, ce sont évidemment les circuits qui permettent de relancer la machine. Avec des "reprises" très bien abordées, comme le joyeux Baby Parc et le pointilleux Koopapolis de Mario Kart 7 et des nouveaux carrément réjouissants, le Big Blue puisé chez F-Zero en tête, on peut dire que les tracés apportent un vrai renouveau.
