Shrek fans have reason to be excited as their beloved animated character is making a comeback to the gaming world. After a considerable absence, Shrek will once again grace video games in DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing. The original Shrek film made a significant impact when it was released in 2001, captivating audiences of all ages with its delightful characters and playful parodies of traditional Disney fairytales. With three successful sequels already released and rumors of a fifth installment in the works, Shrek's return to gaming is highly anticipated by fans. Additionally, it's worth noting that the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie is also being produced by the same studio as the potential Shrek sequel.
During the peak of Shrek's popularity, several licensed video games featuring the beloved (though crude) green ogre were released. While most of these games were forgettable movie tie-ins, there are still many gamers who look back fondly on team-oriented games like Shrek 2 or the Shrek SuperSlam, which was a Super Smash Bros. clone released in 2005. Even after Shrek's cinematic journey came to an end, gamers have kept his memory alive through memes and mods that have placed him in games like Resident Evil 3 and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
Now, Shrek is making a gaming comeback as a playable character in DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing, a newly announced racing game developed by Bamtang Games and published by GameMill Entertainment. This racing title will feature 20 characters from DreamWorks movies, including Puss in Boots, Po and Tigress from the Kung Fu Panda series, Boss Baby from the eponymous series, and Hiccup and Astrid from How to Train Your Dragon.
In the Deluxe Edition of DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing, players can look forward to two new characters: Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda and Wolf from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. To add more excitement, races will be hosted by characters from the Troll movies. Players will have the opportunity to collect Trolls and race alongside them for extra support. Additionally, the game will feature iconic locations from popular DreamWorks movies, including the Kingdom of Far Far Away from the Shrek sequels, Bergen Town from Trolls, the Spirit Realm from Kung Fu Panda, Baby Corp from The Boss Baby, and New York City Zoo from Madagascar.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing will be a delight for fans of the studio's beloved animated films. However, it holds special excitement for Shrek enthusiasts. The iconic ogre, portrayed by Mike Myers, has been absent from video games since the era of the Xbox 360. As a result, his anticipated return in this newly announced kart racing game, featuring Dreamworks characters, is particularly thrilling for gamers who grew up enjoying his films in the early-to-mid-2000s.
DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing is currently in development for various platforms, including PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
