About The Game

A Creative Twist on Classic Kart Racing

Get behind the wheel of PlayStation's latest creative gaming title, ModNation Racers. A PlayStation 3 exclusive, it is a thoroughly fresh take on classic and ever-popular kart racing that empowers the player both in single player and multiplayer to personalize their entire game. Like all kart racers, the comic action is all about what happens on the tracks. Enjoy endless karting fun, where winning the race is only half of the fun. Players looking for the full experience can use combat-like racing strategies to attack other karts with an array of dramatic weapons, while those interested in focusing solely on racing, can stick to racing in Pure Race mode. The choice is your in ModNation Racers.

The Ultimate Kart Racer Customization

ModNation Racers features extreme customisation, and as such allows each player to create their own unique racing experience with the same tools used by the development team. Begin by expressing yourself through the creation of your own Mod character and quirky kart. Starting with more or less a blank slate, players are free to change a variety of their racer's features. These range from head features and skin color, to wearable gear and attire. Customization of karts is equally deep, allowing for alteration of everything from suspension and interior, to body, wheels, decals. Finally, ModNation Racers gives players everything that they need to build the tracks of their dreams. With this functionality, known as Track Studio, players can invest minimal time and enjoy basic creating, or they can invest more time and make sure every lake, mountain, banked turn and power-up is placed perfectly. Either way the result is quick, contagious fun that can be shared through online races of up to 12 players, which can even be rated by the online community.
