In the dynamic world of MoonKarts™, speed alone won’t guarantee victory—it's your strategic use of Power-Ups that often makes the difference. These special cards do not affect your core stats like Speed or Acceleration, but they grant you game-changing abilities to tactically disrupt or defend against opponents.
Let’s break down the six Power-Ups available at launch:
Lunar Glide
This stealthy trick releases an oily trail behind your kart, causing any opponent who crosses it to lose control and spin out. Best used around tight corners or congested stretches, it transforms narrow segments of the track into hazardous zones for rivals.Celestial Thrust
Need that momentary edge? Activate this, and your kart surges forward with impressive speed. Sustain that acceleration through straightaways or essential overtaking zones to leap ahead of the pack.Moonfire Missile
Channel your inner tactician—this locks on to a target and launches a rocket that inflicts damage, knocking them off course. Use it against aggressive opponents or frontrunners to shift race dynamics in your favor.Cosmic Disruptor
When opponents are tightly grouped, unleash this electromagnetic pulse. It emits a shockwave that briefly disrupts nearby karts—slowing or disorienting them at just the right moment.
Lunar Bolt
Select an opponent and summon a lightning bolt from above. The targeted kart loses control and slows, creating an opening for you to pass—or defend your own position.Lunar Barrier
When things get chaotic, protective strategy wins the day. This creates a temporary invincible shield around your kart, rendering you immune to attacks and collisions. Timing its activation—especially in high-risk stretches—can safeguard your lead when it matters most.
All Power-Ups are earned by opening packs and then outfitted into your racing kit before hitting the track.
Key Tips for Pro-Level Play
Effective deployment is everything: drop Lunar Glide in bottlenecks, unleash Celestial Thrust on long stretches, and reserve barriers for moments when you'd otherwise be vulnerable. Observe your opponents, anticipate threats, and react swiftly—because in MoonKarts™, a well-placed power-up can be the difference between winning and watching the finish line pass you by.
