Chocobo Racing (PS1 Gameplay) grand prix
Chocobo Racing, known in Japan as Chocobo Racing: Genkai e no Road (チョコボレーシング 〜幻界へのロード〜, Chokobo Rēshingu 〜Genkai e no Rōdo〜, lit. "Chocobo Racing: Road to the Spirit World"), is a racing game developed by Square Co. for the PlayStation. The game was released in Japan in March 1999, followed by North America and Europe in August and October, respectively. The game's star and namesake is the Chocobo, the mascot of the Final Fantasy series. Other figures from that series, such as Mog the Moogle, the Black Mage, and Cid, fill out the all-Final Fantasy cast. Most of the game's soundtrack is composed using songs from previous Final Fantasy titles. As a formulaic kart racer, Chocobo Racing is often compared to Mario Kart and Crash Team Racing.[3]
Chocobo Racing received generally average reviews, with critics citing its low quality in several aspects of gameplay.[3][4] The game was later released in Japan alongside Chocobo Stallion and Dice de Chocobo as part of the Chocobo Collection. On December 20, 2001, the game was re-released individually as part of the PSone Books series. It was released in Japan as a PSOne Classic on February 10, 2009.[2]
