'Touring Karts' (ALL) Comes To PSVR Next Month - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 28, 2019 @ 1:09 a.m. PST

Touring Karts takes maximum advantage of the possibilities of VR by reinventing Kart-type races in the midst of chaos full of action and surprises.

Master your racing skills while interacting with the environment as if you would be doing it in the real world. Get ready to make your way through the first place while throwing ice cubes, chickens, bombs, shoot bazokas, smashing your rivals with a giant hammer, and also take a break in the middle of the chaos to recover your health by drinking energetic beverages!

For the first time in a home VR system, Touring Karts will make you feel like playing an arcade Kart game.

Coming later on to Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, Touring Karts will be offering cross-platform multiplayer for up-to 8 players between all platforms without requiring a VR Device, thus granting the party for every player, regardless where they are and the device they use.


“As fans of F1 and the Mario Kart saga, we were missing an experience that united these two worlds taking advantage of all the possibilities that Virtual Reality can offer. We wanted to bring all the excitement and crazy fun of the kart-type arcade games into a universe where we always find new challenges and where we can compete with our friends. ”-Ivan Cascales, Founder and CEO at Ivanovich Games.
