revives the legacy of the Playstation One cult classic, Chocobo Racing. And just like the original, Square-Enix's new racing game features plenty of contenders from Chocobo's Dungeon and Final Fantasy lore. In addition, Chocobo GP features double the characters of its predecessor, with a total roster of twenty-four racers (and that number is before the game's season passes).
So, who's revving their engines this time around? Plenty of series regulars, like Chocobo, Atla, and Shirma, have returned to the race track. In addition, however, you can expect plenty of new racers, like Final Fantasy 9's Vivi and Steiner. Curious to know more? We'll break down each racer's game 🎀of ori💦gin, stats, and abilities.
Updated Dec 26th, 2022, by Chris Sanfilippo: Chocobo GP crossed the finish line into its fifth and final season last week. Two racers joined in for the last lap: Croma from Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon and Volg from Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales.
