Although everyone said this when the N.Sane Trilogy released two years ago, it feels even more true now: Crash is back.

Not only is Crash back, he's better than ever. Nitro Fuelled has taken a beloved game and made it even better, solidifying it as the best kart racer on the market right now.

Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fuelled has reminded all of us of how great the sub-genre can really be. It's only been out for a few days, but the amount of excitement and respect from the community is electric.

Calling Nitro Fulled the best racer on the market may seem like a bold claim, but it's not as ridiculous as you might think. Let's be completely real here: the biggest competition for Nitro Fuelled is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Even though Nintendo's iconic release is absolutely fantastic in its own right, there is so much to talk surrounding Crash Team Racing that it really does feel like it's practically reinvigorated the whole genre.

This could get controversial, but let's just remember that the biggest takeaway is that kart racers seem to be making a resurgence. That's good news for everyone!

10. Grand Prix Adds Infinite Replayability

This feature isn't even out in the released game yet, but it already looks like it'll be full of content.

Grand Prix is an online mode starting next month that essentially acts as an ongoing tournament of sorts. With each Grand Prix comes new characters, new tracks and loads of new items to be earned.

The best part? All of the content that comes will be completely free, and earned through just playing the game. Considering Activision published the title, that's actually pretty impressive.

Crash Team Racing definitely needed an online element like this to keep people coming back, even if the rest of the game is already stuffed with content.

This also means that all of the content coming in Grand Prix is actually brand new as well. New racers and new tracks is a really cool feature that honestly could have easily been saved for a sequel down the line.

Grand Prix also means that Spyro will be in Crash Team Racing, so that's an instant victory really.
