The online portion meanwhile presents easily Chocobo GP’s mode with the most potential. Local multiplayer while present only supports up to two players on a single console, a problem for those looking to host a four-player couch session. Microtransactions rear their ugly head, a rather jarring appearance in a cartoony racer but at least tickets can be earned by playing the game and used to buy a good number of in-store items. Speaking of unlockables, there is a healthy mix of characters, colour swaps, rides and decals to collect, a majority purchased using one of three in-game currencies (though what some do I’m still not 100% on). Annoyingly, you’ll have to play through in order to unlock the game’s many characters and unlockables. As a result, the further you progress into the story mode, the more of a slog it feels.

As for the mode’s general structure, it rarely feels like things amount to more than a series of standard races with the goal being to beat one particular racer. The chatter is certainly light and bubbly but never held my interest beyond the first couple of chapters.

The game’s story mode for example, while sporting full voice acting and conversations that set up each chapter, is a rather bland affair overall. Unfortunately, while some of these options certainly check the right boxes, that’s about all they really do. There’s a story mode, plenty of unlockables, Series Races (events grouping four tracks) and most intriguing of all the option to participate in a 64-player online tournament (Chocobo GP) among others. On first visiting the game’s main menu, I must admit I was initially pleased to see a good mix of kart racing staples when it comes to modes. At the end of the day, a good kart racer is a good kart racer regardless of whether it’s a red plumber’s name on the box or a blue hedgehog. Anyways, the reason I bring all this up, is that while the characters and settings featured in kart racer Chocobo GP will obviously strike a better chord with fans of Final Fantasy, my lack of exposure to the RPG series isn’t my problem with this game. So, while the names Cloud and Sephiroth are carved in the mind of many a gamer, to me, they’re two fighters in Super Smash Bros. That likely tells you everything you need to know about the little knowledge I have when it comes to the long-running series.
In fact, the only entry in the series I’ve taken the time to play has been Final Fantasy XV (a game which I actually had a lot of fun with I might add). I’ll raise my hands up right now and tell you, I’m not a big Final Fantasy guy.
