'KartKraft' Adding More Content In Q3 2022, Multiplayer Delayed Until Later This Year, Also Coming To Consoles

KartKraft is an intense, realistic kart racing game with real kart physics, laser scanned circuits, and a never-before-seen racing sandbox mode.

Originally titled KartSim, KartKraft is the evolution of a university game prototype created by ex-kart racer and Black Delta CEO, Zach Griffin.

Experience a whole new thrill of Karting by getting in the driver seat of the KartKross vehicle and race on the new Brentomonte track. Even photo mode gives you more options to capture with the addition of cinematic motion blur.

Master the skill of racing karts accelerating to 60mph in just 3.2 seconds with no suspension whilst fighting 20 other drivers. Learn what it takes to corner at over 2.5G while balancing on only three wheels as your engine screams at 21,000 RPM. Hear your tyres squeal as they slide and deform, trying to grip the track. Experience the most advanced vehicle physics ever produced for a racing game with KartKraft.

Look the part and stand out from the competition. Kit up in the latest gear from Alpinestars, Arai, Freem, Momo, OMP and Sparco with more being added during Early Access content updates. Dress the way you want by choosing the suits, gloves, boots and helmets to show off your unique style.

Build your kart from the ground up with over 60 components and 1000+ parts that all affect handling. Swap out axles, sprockets, carburetors, rims, hubs, torsion bars and many more. If you can see it, you can change it.

Our team is hard at work to bring you new content and features to enjoy. We have an update planned in the near future to introduce some quality-of-life updates to the game. While multiplayer racing mode still is our top priority, we expect this feature will require more work and to be available Holiday 2022.

We are committed to bringing you the best experience possible and have some exciting content planned in the meantime. You can expect a new engine/class, and multiple time-of-day track conditions in Q3 2022.

We are aware of the many requests for content including new karts, weather and custom helmets and are eager to bring these, among other things, to life.

Additionally, our team is working closely with Microsoft and Sony in order to bring KartKraft to the masses on console in the future.

Feel your kart bend, twist and bounce on every bump, crack and kerb in the track as you drive on officially licensed circuits from around the world. Scanned with the same technology used in laser guided missile systems, every surface is accurate to the millimeter. The only thing closer is real life.

Learn from the best as you climb your way to the top of the leaderboards in the ultimate hotlapping competition. See where you rank against your friends, your country and across the globe. With every lap recorded and uploaded to our servers in high-fidelity, see exactly where your competitor brakes, turns and accelerates to gain the edge and send them home.

Key Features:

  • Champions are Made in KartKraft: No suspension, no down force, no seatbelts; this is real kart racing. Sharpen your race craft as 30 other drivers hustle to get past and steal the chequered flag. With 3.5Gs of cornering forces thrust upon you every 3 seconds, you’ll quickly learn why only karting moulds you into a champion.
  • Faster than an exotic supercar: Power through the lower classes to unlock the 45+ horsepower, purpose built KZ2 racing kart capable of reaching 160km/h, just 18 millimetres off the ground. Accelerating from 0-100km/h in just 3.1 seconds, you’re quicker than the McLaren MP4-12C and as fast as the Lamborghini Aventador.
  • Race across the globe - From Europe to the USA: Race on world renowned circuits, from
  • Atlanta Motorsports Park (USA), PF International (United Kingdom), Go Kart Club of Victoria (Australia), Geelong Kart Club (Australia) to International Circuit of Genk (Belgium). Laser scanned and reproduced with millimetre accuracy, you’re racing on the real track.
  • Real kart physics: Hear the motor scream as it reaches 21,000RPM. Feel the tyre biting into the asphalt while it generates 3x the cornering forces of a road car. See the chassis twist as you slam headfirst into the tyre wall. With the only dedicated kart physics engine in gaming, this is as real as it gets.
  • Build the ultimate race team: Buy a kart, create a team and invite your friends to race alongside you. Win races to unlock bigger headquarters, team skins, drones, rc cars and more.
  • Look as fast as you drive - Race with style: Kit out your avatar with the latest gear from Alpinestars, Freem, Arai, Sparco, Mir and more. From suits, gloves, boots, and helmets, choose the way you look on the track.

Currently available for PC(Steam), KartKraft is also coming to PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
