All-Stars Racers Transformed

All-Stars Racers Transformed is a crossover racing game and is the third entry in the All-Stars Racers series. It has been released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo 3DS.

Summary
Whilst this game retains the previous entry's control scheme, it does bring something new to the table: transforming between aerial and water racing. When a racer has reached a certain point in the track, it can either transform into an airplane, a boat, or back into a car. This help create refreshing experiences with each lap in certain courses.

There is also a campaign mode where players can complete a series of challenges to unlock paths to new and more challenging courses and missions while earning star, which is the main way to unlock new characters and tracks. There is however, one track that had previously been a pre-order bonus, but can now be unlocked via DLC.

Previously, the All-Star power up was originally an item that only players near last place could pick up. Now, there is a meter that fills up so that you can perform the All-Star move. You can fill it up by passing other racers, successfully hitting an opponent with an item, or with a well timed drift dash or aerial trick.

Racers
A number of characters from the first two All-Stars Racers games return as well as a number of newcomers for a total of 28 characters. Sixteen characters are playable from the start (Finn, SpongeBob, Black Mage, Aladdin, Viewtiful Joe, Spider-Man, Billy Hatcher, Raiden, Sonic, Bart, Mega Man, Bugs, PAC-MAN, Grim, Garfield, and Ralph). Interestingly, there is one character that was formerly a pre-order bonus but is now obtainable via DLC.

Tracks
There are a total of twenty-one tracks, with one exclusive track as DLC.

Note: All of the tracks will not be the same while you race throughout the three laps. Some tracks change during the last lap. Some will change every lap. Some will not change, and they will stay the same track for three laps. Also Memory Lane is the only track that you can choose to change the path to a boat path or plane, depending on which gate is entered first.
