Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift Races onto Nintendo Switch in 2025

Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift has been officially revealed for the Nintendo Switch, with retailer listings confirming that the new entry in the popular racing series will arrive in late 2025.

Building on the whimsical kart-racing action that fans of the franchise have come to expect, this latest installment promises expanded multiplayer features, creative kart customization, and the return of Garfield and his iconic friends. First debuting on Nintendo 3DS with the original Garfield Kart in 2013, the series expanded to Nintendo Switch with Garfield Kart Furious Racing in 2019.

The upcoming sequel aims to revitalize the franchise for both returning players and kart-racing newcomers, leveraging the Switch's versatile platform capabilities with an all-new adventure. In Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift, players will be able to choose from eight beloved characters from the Garfield universe, including familiar faces like Odie, Jon, and, naturally, Garfield himself.

Each racer boasts their own personality traits, ensuring that every race feels unique and engaging.

The game invites fans to personalize their experience further, offering extensive options to customize karts—from bumpers and wheels to spoilers, colors, and more—giving each driver a chance to showcase their individual style on the track. Players will speed through vibrant, themed environments inspired by pirate coves, wild west landscapes, and thrilling detective mysteries.

Each course is brimming with dynamic shortcuts, secret pathways, and surprising bonus items that can dramatically shift the outcome of any race.

As described in official materials, the game encourages players to create unforgettable moments with friends, thanks to local split-screen and robust online multiplayer options.

Up to eight players can compete online from around the world, while local multiplayer accommodates up to four racers for energetic living-room battles. Among its key features are the unique settings—from mysterious detective scenes to sandy cowboy trails—crafted to reward exploration and strategic driving.

The new installment stays true to its cartoon heritage, featuring the signature humor and vibrant art style the series is known for, all packed into exciting, fast-paced kart racing action. Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift will be available both physically and digitally on the Nintendo Switch, continuing the series’ legacy on Nintendo hardware.

The game is expected to be a highlight for family gaming nights and fans seeking accessible, customizable multiplayer thrills.

More information, including pre-order details and additional screenshots, will be available as the 2025 release date approaches. For ongoing updates and expanded Nintendo Switch coverage, stay tuned as the countdown to Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift begins.
