Dry Dry Desert makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the first course of the [[Banana Cup]]. The structure serving as the starting banner has been slightly updated, now featuring four flags and only one ''Mario Kart'' logo instead of three. The course now features a more slope-like design, and the palm trees and advertisement boards have switched positions. The characters that were carved in stone have been removed. All of the statues, including the Sphinx, have been reworked to resemble [[Hammer Bro]]s., with the latter sporting a [[Wiggler]] headdress. The large open portion of the end of the track has been turned into an oasis allowing players to [[Underwater driving|drive underwater]] and perform tricks from holes with rising jets (similar to [[Dolphin Shoals]]). Because of this, only the [[Pokey]]s on the S-turns at the start of the course (which now sport their current design) are present. Falling pillars from [[Wii Dry Dry Ruins|Dry Dry Ruins]] are also seen in this course. The [[tornado]], [[Pit Plant]], and [[Big Pokey]]s have been removed (with the Pit Plant being replaced by Lakitu, who pulls the player out of the pit).
