As we mentioned in the December 14 Dev Blog, we're preparing a number of changes for 2024 to help our Racers enjoy a more diverse and exciting Item Mode. Today, we'd like to introduce the new "Character Skills" and share how these skills will look in-game.

Character Skills

Each character will have a unique skill that fits their concept, personality, and style. Character Skills will only be available to use in Item Mode, and there will be two skill types: Active and Passive. Below are some examples.

(Note: The below descriptions are examples only, and may be subject to change as development continues.)

• Passive Skill Example:
  • Brian: Boost your Kart's Speed and deploy a Barricade whenever you use a Siren item.
• Active Skill Example:
  • Brodi: Install a Boost Zone on the track.

Below is a clip of Brodi's active skill to give you a better idea of how these new Character Skills will work!

(Note: This clip contains footage of gameplay features still in development, and may differ from the final release.)

We hope you're looking forward to the next content spoiler!
