Smurfs Karts steps on the gas in its first gameplay trailer

Also check out the game’s ‘Turbo’ retail edition

Paris, September 28th, 2022 – Publisher Microids and IMPS, the Smurfs world license holder, are thrilled to reveal the first trailer for their highly anticipated upcoming kart-racing game, Smurfs Kart, and what fans can expect from upgraded Turbo Edition. The game is being developed by Eden Games, well-known for their iconic racing games (Gear.Club Unlimited, Test Drive Unlimited, V-Rally), and will launch on Nintendo Switch on November 15th, 2022.

The brand new trailer welcomes players to the Smurfs Racing School with an introduction to the basics of Smurfs driving!

  1. Lesson #1: A good start is the best way to get ahead in the race! Hit the gas at the right time to get an advantageous speed boost.
  2. Lesson #2: Drifting allows you to race through the trickiest turns, and even gives you a speed boost!
  3. Lesson #3: Know the tracks and you will be unbeatable! Use the ramps, discover all the shortcuts, and drive on the boost areas to take the lead on your opponents.
  4. Lesson #4: Make the best use of the items you collect along the way! Acorns are Smurf-busting missiles, Sarsaparilla gives you a speed boost, and protective bubbles make you temporarily invulnerable. Best of all, each Smurf has their own special item to get rid of opponents in a unique way!
