Playtonic Games is shifting its Yooka-Laylee series from platforming to arcade racing with the upcoming release of Super Yooka-Laylee Kart. Drawing inspiration from the classic Super Mario Kart, this game features pixel-art characters racing on nostalgic tracks filled with coins and power-up boxes. A key innovation is the Rage system, which builds as players compete, enabling them to unleash powerful abilities that can dramatically alter race outcomes. The game promises a skill-based experience where mastering mechanics is crucial. Players can engage in a deep story campaign that includes tournaments, time trials, and endurance events, while also collecting coins to upgrade their vehicles. The game supports online multiplayer and local splitscreen for up to eight players, allowing for further customization of race conditions. Although currently in development for Steam, there is speculation about a future release on consoles, including the Nintendo Switch 2. Beta tests for online modes are expected to commence soon.
