'All-Star Fruit Racing' (ALL) Online Support Coming to Nintendo Switch Post-launch

by Rainier on July 3, 2018 @ 2:33 a.m. PDT

All-Star Fruit Racing is the kart racing game you've been waiting for! More exciting, colorful, fruity, strategic and more fun than anything else before.

All-Star Fruit Racing seats players behind the wheel of a speedy kart in the midst of a fruit-fueled fiesta, charging through scores of expertly crafted tracks with power-ups aplenty designed to cause magnificent macerated mayhem.

All-Star Fruit Racing employs a unique power-up system unlike other games in the genre, adding a sense of strategy to the carnage on the track. Dubbed “The Juicer,” each kart sports four separate tanks designed to be filled by the power-packed fruit players pick up on track, enabling them to both combine moves and — when all the tanks are full — unlock a unique “Mega Juice” power-up! Players are also given the opportunity to fully customize the look and feel of their characters so they can create their own unique and iconic drivers.

All-Star Fruit Racing includes both single player and multiplayer modes, local split screen with four players, online multiplayer (coming this fall) and an incredible roster of 22 characters to unlock. Players can challenge themselves today in two different modes, Juicer mode and Classic mode. Additional modes Dragster, Elimination and Elimination Mix will be added later. The easy level of all racing formats (Custom Race, Career, Fast Championship, Custom Championship and Time Attack) are available now, with medium and harder difficulty levels being added soon as well.

Unlock new parts as you play to help you redesign, rebuild and re-color your dream ride. It's not just about winning - it's about winning with style, and over 32,000 possible kart combinations await in the All-Star Fruit Racing Garage...

PQube is delighted to announce that All-Star Fruit Racing, the juiciest kart racer around, will be supporting Online Matchmaking for Nintendo Switch, as well as Local Arena Network play for Nintendo Switch, as well as Online Matchmaking for all other platforms.

Previously stated, Online Functionality for Nintendo Switch was a difficult task for 3DClouds.it, after listening to a large amount of community feedback it was deemed a fruitful endeavor worth chasing. 3DClouds.it were able to connect with Epic Games and the Unreal Engine 4 support team and we can now confirm that Online Functionality will be coming to the Nintendo Switch version to match other platforms – this will also include Local Arena Network functionality, allowing multiple Nintendo Switch consoles to pair up and play together.

While we don’t have an exact date that this will be available - to those who purchase the Nintendo Switch version, we can confirm that it will be around the launch week or shortly thereafter! We will communicate this when we know a specific date
