The Switch could really use with a new kart game, and luckily in March, Chocobo GP will be racing onto the hybrid system.

This new racer includes a story mode, 64-player knock-out tournament, time attack and various other modes. Square Enix is also releasing a free-to-download version - allowing players who don't own the game to join in on the fun.
