Although now undisputed, there was a time when ‘Mario Kart’ was not the default racing game. Not even among kart games. There was a time, in the era of the first PlayStation, where ‘Crash Team Racing’ was as popular, or even more in certain places, than ‘Mario Kart.’ That’s why it’s a game that many fans have always wanted to come back, something that has never happened. Until now, fans have decided to do something about it.
A group of modders has created a mod that allows you to play ‘Crash Team Racing’ online for free. With all characters and tracks unlocked from the beginning, dedicated servers to play the game, and the ability to play private matches through LAN or local connection, it has better support than the official online mode of many games. Making it essential for any ‘Crash Team Racing’ fan.
The ones in charge of this achievement are the same team that, back then, created a mod that enabled playing the game at 60fps on widescreen monitors. This addition breathed new life into the game, making it feel as great as we remembered.
In any case, this is not the end of ‘Crash Team Racing.’ The team has already stated that this is just the public release and they are considering more features for the future. Although they have not specified what they will work on next, seeing the spectacular work they are doing to bring back a beloved game like ‘Crash Team Racing,’ we have no doubt that it will be worth keeping an eye on what they do.
