The dust is starting to settle on Wave 5 of the Mario Kart Booster Course Pass, and while masses are power-sliding their way through Summer as Wiggler, or pecking on the shredded remains of Chocobo Racing GP, publishers and developers alike are rejoicing in the knowledge that soon the kart racing landscape will calm down as Mario Kart updates end this year, and the genre will be open to new entries once more.
Disney is first to step in, with Disney Speedstorm screeching its way onto Nintendo Switch on September 28th, and a new kart racer has just reared its head from publisher GameMill Entertainment and developer Bamtang Games, DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing, due this year on Nintendo Switch!
Here's what the publisher has to say about what you can expect with this upcoming racer:
