Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled was a great remake of a classic kart racing game in the form of Crash Team Racing which released in 1999. Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled which was developed by Been for Xbox, PlayStation and Switch received tons of content and post launch DLC.
However once support for the game stopped the player base quickly began to fall and now its a bit of a ghost town. Though they could be changing in the next year thanks to the Microsoft acquisition of Activision and the eventual release of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled on Xbox Game Pass. Not only that the release of Nitro-Fuelled on Xbox game Pass could help fuel a CTR Nitro-Fueled sequel.
