Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing (PS5)

Product Information

The swamp track features oversized versions of Shrek's house, his various signs, and the iconic outhouse. Lord Farquaad's kart has two of the trumpet playing Duloc Dolls next to the engine- with the male and female chorus members above his love seat. Each Shrek character also has a personalized kart, which is designed to fit several different styles.

There is just something about getting an outlandish cast of characters and racing around unique tracks. The Dark Forest includes the colorful entryway from Perrito's vision of the map, leading into the Cave of Lost Souls. Race on 20 different tracks, inspired by locations from beloved DreamWorks Animation films including: The Kingdom of Far Far Away from Shrek, BERGEN TOWN from Trolls, Spirit Realm from Kung Fu Panda, Baby Corp from The Boss Baby, New York City Zoo from Madagascar, and many more!

The game plays well and the tracks are fun to traverse, but who was clamoring for a kart racer featuring Shrek and Puss and Boots? DreamWorks Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, Puss in Boots, The Boss Baby, Madagascar, The Bad Guys, Trolls, How To Train Your Dragon, Megamind © 2023 DreamWorks Animation LLC.

of the most iconic DreamWorks characters: Shrek, Po, Tigress, Puss in Boots, Hiccup, Astrid, Boss Baby, and other top favorites all come together in a kart racing experience like no other. This game marks the first time the four original main characters from Shrek were featured together since Shrek 4-D in 2003.

The Gingerbread Man and Magic Mirror are namedropped by Lord Farquaad, and Perrito is mentioned by Puss. This makes sense as most of these films contain licensed music, and for a game of this magnitude I wasn’t expecting them to license bands like Smash Mouth. Death and Master Oogway, being exclusive to the digital "Rally Pack," arguably share tracks with other playable characters. DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is a crossover racing game starring various DreamWorks Animation characters.
