In addition to DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing, DreamWorks’ Trolls are coming to a separate game as well, DreamWorks Trolls Remix Rescue. Developed by Petit Fabrik, Trolls Remix Rescue is a 3D platformer that tasks players with saving the Trolls Kingdom from “a melodic mastermind who’s trying to alter the Trolls’ musical harmony forever,” GameMill said in an announcement.

Put your very own twist on the kart with hundreds of parts and accessory combinations to level up! Awesome Karts: Each character boasts their own uniquely styled kart to race. Players can put their own twist on each ride with hundreds of customizable parts and accessory combinations. So with all that said, I'm gonna take this review with a grain of salt. The gameplay looks solid, although I did see some footage of the Switch version, and it unfortunately does look way worse graphically than on other platforms. This is honestly a very pretty looking game on PS and Xbox from what I've seen, but some of the levels like the Madagascar one and Shrek's swamp have lots of missing grass and tree leaves, and what is there looks like something from an N64 game. So I'm really conflicted on this one. I don't want an ugly version of the game, but I also don't really want it on another platform. I might just wait for a sale since I already have the MK8 DX DLC that just dropped, as well as Disney Speedstorm to keep me busy for now.

NL was way too harsh on NASB2. The performance is really not that bad, other than the load times, which can last up to 30 seconds just to start a match. There are also certain missions in the campaign where the game just doesn't load at all, which is a pretty egregious oversight. But the devs have said they have it fixed and are rolling out a patch for that, as well as the load times and frame drops.Kill Count Coffin (decorated with the red illustrations of Puss' deaths with numbers, including "9" on the side doors) All-Star Racing Roster – Hit the kartway with 20 fan-favourite DreamWorks Animation characters, including Shrek, Po, Tigress, Boss Baby, Puss in Boots, Hiccup, Astrid and many more! The first time the four original main characters from Shrek are being featured together since Shrek 4-D in 2003.

The game features full voice acting, complete with banter between the characters. Many lines have the characters call each other out by name, or through name calling. The courses are neatly undulating and make great use of the films they’re based on. Mongo stands astride the city of Far Far Away from Shrek, as you dodge the King and Queen’s stretch limo-carriage. The Cave of Lost Souls from Puss in Boots is stitched together with portals, taking you into a Ghost Train-like experience with Death staring at you from its walls. DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing will be heading to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Switch, and PC via Steam at some point in 2023. As for when in 2023 it’ll see the light of day remains a mystery, though it’s fair to say that it’ll be targeting a Q4 launch, perhaps to coincide with the pre-holiday season rush, if anything.Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. The third time Eric Bauza voiced Puss in Boots in a major production following The Adventures of Puss in Boots, and The Trident. Two additional characters will be available as part of DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing’s Deluxe Edition: Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda and Wolf from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish . Characters from the Troll movies will host each race, and players will be able to collect Trolls to race alongside them for added support. The game will also feature classic locations from the movies these characters hail from, such as the Kingdom of Far Far Away from the Shrek sequels, Bergen Town from Trolls, the Spirit Realm from Kung Fu Panda, Baby Corp from The Boss Baby, and New York City Zoo from Madagascar. The sheer number of route-permutations is extremely high, and builds a high skill ceiling for DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing. Miss a lyre, which is easy to do considering that they only appear once the previous one is collected, and you’re at a severe disadvantage. Fail to notice that a secret passage lies up that aeroplane chassis in the Madagascar level, and you’re playing catch up. For younger players it might be frustrating to see daddy suddenly appear in the distance, and online multiplayer (plus the later difficulties) demands that you use them well. But it equally adds depth to the racing.

At the time of writing, GameMill Entertainment hasn’t released any footage to showcase DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing in all its glory. Needless to say that the likelihood of it getting a launch trailer at some point in the next several weeks seems pretty high. Until then, all we’ve got are the screenshots. Release Date, Platforms & Editions The extended Shrek family is strongly represented in DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing; the eponymous ogre, his ogre wife Fiona, Donkey, and Puss in Boots are all playable racers. Wolf from Puss In Boots: The Last Wish is also playable, but one of two characters exclusive to a digital deluxe version of the game (the other is Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda). Each character will have their own kart — Shrek’s looks all swampy, Fiona’s is onion-inspired, and Donkey’s is modeled after the mother of his children — that can be upgraded with cosmetics and other customizations. DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is exactly what it sounds like — a kart racing game featuring none other than a collected bunch of friendly faces and misfits stripped directly from some of the animation studio’s most celebrated works. To this end, players can expect to dive into a Mario Kart-type experience as heroes such as Shrek, Po, Alex the Lion, and even Boss Baby, for crying out loud. Sound like your typical run-of-the-mill karting game with a touch of DreamWorks’ signature paint? That’s because it is — and it’s doing nothing to tell us otherwise. Not that it’s a problem, mind you. It’s about time we received a spiritual successor to 2009’s Shrek Kart, to be fair.

Even on Xbox Series X|S the graphics are a little rough. We recently came from a review of Disney Speedstorm, and the difference is night and day. That game’s overblown visual flourishes and dynamism is completely absent here, and DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing ends up looking a little drab and basic as a result.

The second overall appearance of Shrek and Donkey in the 2020's (third for Shrek including his cameo in The Pentaverate).Each character boasts their own uniquely styled kart to race,”‘the description continues. “Players can put their own twist on each ride with hundreds of customizable parts and accessory combinations.”
