A new kart racer based on the Final Fantasy franchise called Chocobo GP has been announced for next year.

Chocobo GP will have players taking their favorite Final Fantasy characters onto the track in a wacky race against one another. Players will pick up Magicite (in lieu of items) to cast spells to speed them along or hinder their foes.

Ready. Set. Chocobo!
Start your engines, because Chocobo GP is coming to Nintendo Switch in 2022!

Get set for a new racing experience, featuring a roster of dozens of Chocobo characters, complete with their own unique abilities and variants. Choose your favourite Chocobo series character, and race through familiar tracks set in the FINAL FANTASY universe. It won’t be easy crossing the finish line first. Find magic stones called Magicites (including Fire, Water, and more) throughout the track and equip them to take out the competition.

Engine customization options will be available, as well as local and online multiplayer. Up to 64 players can compete in a bracket-style tournament to determine the racing champion. Chocobo GP launches on Nintendo Switch in 2022.
