So much chaos at the beginning can overwhelm many players.
No "Pros & Cons" find at TierraGamer


Very technically and artistically mastered, with great attention to detail.
An insane generosity that ridicules Mario Kart World
Potentially too focused on multiplayer (online or offline)
You may need to buy a new left Joy-Con.


A quantity of very well-crafted content of all types.
It's addictive on its own, fresh and original.
Great absences like Elfilin or Adeleine.
It can be chaotic at times.


The gameplay is smooth and accessible, without removing the element of challenge.
A satisfying variety of levels, vehicles, and characters.
An excellent multiplayer mode, both in cooperation and online.
Many modes available, catering to all expectations and tastes.
Interesting mini-games in City Trial.
The addition of the Road Trip as a point brings a breath of fresh air to the game.

Unprecedented proposition in the current video game landscape
Implementation of HDR quite botched
The spinning top that is triggered by the stick rather than a button


Strikes a great balance between accessibility and skill
Deceptively deep mechanics
Lots to unlock.
Top Ride races quickly get repetitive.


Customization for pilots and ships
Mechanically, this can become something complex.
Many game modes
A campaign mode that surprised
Constant disconnections online

Fantastic soundtrack
Timed events are inconvenient

Une bande-son très réussie
Des voix dans une grande sélection de langue

Durée de vie infinie en multijoueur local et en ligne
Le Smash Bros du jeu de course en TV et portable !
Quelques musiques anecdotiques
Ça reste moins drôle tout seul


Exuberant in modes, options, settings, and unlocks.
Frantic on the audiovisual level.
Performance is affected when playing local multiplayer in Urban Trials.
That there is only one scene in urban trials.


Different and fun story mode.
Many things to do and many things to unlock.
It is not a pure racing game, just as it is not a party game.


The Urban Challenges mode promises to shine during gatherings with friends.
A depth of gameplay more accessible than it seems
The originality with which he plays with the format of video game racing.
There is a lack of more variety of traditional circuits.
The Escape mode could give more


Plenty of modes, tons of minigames, and some brilliant tracks
Lots of unlockable riders and machines to get busy learning with
Top soundtrack packed full of classic bangers
Racing at the heart of it all has depth amidst all the chaos
Excellent performance
The chaotic nature of races is a lot starting out
Some UI aspects in local multiplayer could be clearer


A masterful City Trial mode, still as addictive as ever.
A colorful and faithful artistic direction to the spirit of Kirby
Exemplary fluidity for a title as nervous as this.
A solo finally present with a well-crafted Road Trip mode
Robust content (circuit, riders, cars...)
Some redundant modes over time
Graphically decent for the Switch 2
No "Pros & Cons" find at Absolute Geeks
No "Pros & Cons" find at EuroGamer.fr


Refreshingly fast-paced
A number of different, engaging ways to play
Underwhelming rewards


A solid and well-thought-out online system down to the smallest details.
Overflowing with content. The variety of sources and rewards is at a high level.
The difference between pilots and ships. Mastering them is a process that requires technique.
The sound level is very high.
Urban trials deserved a more significant turn towards improving competitiveness.

No "Pros & Cons" find at Geeky


Excellent opportunity to play City Trial online...
Very meticulous tutorial?
Grandiose soundtrack, excellent Italian dubbing
Overall simple but brilliant game formula
Road Trip is an excellent compromise for the solo player.
Although matchmaking sometimes sleeps on its feet
To overcome difficult-to-deepen controls.


Road Trip is addictive and offers great replayability
The story is surprisingly good
One of the best-looking games on the Switch 2
Engaging, catchy soundtrack


The Urban Trial mode remains one of the most original and chaotic multiplayer modes ever created.
Content mountain: 750 achievements with significant unlocks and monstrous replayability.
Impeccable location for Brazilian Portuguese, with native narration and complete texts.
Solid performance at 60 FPS and an interesting customization system.
Foot on the Road mode (countryside) and 1v1 battles highlight the imprecision of the controls.
High price in Brazil (R$ 439.90) for a very specific and niche game proposal.


High-quality cinematics
Many characters and ships to unlock
Very well explained tutorials
Online mode for the three proposed variants
Many objectives to achieve
Accessibility options that put MK World in trouble
Well-thought-out ergonomic menus
High quality OST with the possibility to customize your playlist.
Dubbing in all languages, twice!
Finally, there are few circuits for traditional races.
Frustrating Top Ride mode controls
Gameplay that will not appeal to everyone
A rather anecdotal Road Trip mode in the end


Vividly-detailed tracks at a smooth 60fps
Road Trip story mode's narrative is wild
City Trial and Top Ride good quick fun
Charmingly wacky extra features
100 percenting could take a while
Most modes and features not that deep
Could use a lot more tracks
No "Pros & Cons" find at PCGames


Think about all the details
3-in-1
Collections allow you to experience the race multiple times with a different approach.
Sometimes feels a bit slow
No touch screen


So many ways to play
Extremely efficient user interface
Extremely dependent on the online.
The technical gameplay limits the end user.


Top Ride ultra fun in multiplayer
Huge content and no DLC
Highly advanced machine customization
Readability often struggles
Steep learning curve
Interesting solo but too easy at its core.
Grinding sometimes excessive to unlock everything
No "Pros & Cons" find at Game-eXperience.it


Much more focused on the battle than on the actual race.
Due to the huge chaos, you lose track when playing solo.
Much more focused on the battle than on the actual race
Due to the huge chaos, you lose track when playing solo.


A very diverse gameplay with different races, destruction arenas, mini-game challenges, and more in four game modes.
Almost everything is playable online as well as against AI.
Strongly resembles its predecessor GameCube, which should please fans.
Success depends far too much on chance.


Technically excellent
An atypical mix of racing, action, and party game
So many ways
Too superficial, in the long run
The quantity exceeds, and by no small amount, the quality.
No "Pros & Cons" find at GameKult.com
No "Pros & Cons" find at 4players
Successful sensation of speed and nervous rhythm
Variety of vehicles and characters, good replayability
+ Many modes and interesting ideas
+ Immediate fun thanks to short and dynamic races
Boost that also serves as a brake, often frustrating
City Trial is pretty but very empty and underutilized.
Significant imbalances between vehicles, difficult for new players.
No structured progression like cups or championships
Many activities but few real motivations to come back.

Friendly characters and unusual vehicles
many unlockable contents
Simple control
Objects and attacks that are barely usable in a targeted manner.
Top Ride slow and with small courses
Traveling on the road quickly becomes repetitive.
Many unblockings
Surprising technical rendering
Fun and idea-rich road trip...
Constant confusion
Heterogeneous experience
A few ideas barely sketched out
