About The Karters 2: Turbo Charged
The Karters 2: Turbo Charged delivers a high‑speed kart racing experience that blends casual chaos with competitive depth. From launch it offers local split‑screen for up to six players and online matchmaking, letting friends race side‑by‑side or across the internet.
The title also integrates Steam Workshop browsing, so community‑created tracks, characters and other mods can be downloaded directly in‑game. With a single‑player campaign, ranked leaderboards, and seven distinct game modes, it caters to both solo racers and multiplayer crowds.
01 / THE GUIDE
Split‑Screen Multiplayer
The game supports local split‑screen for up to six players on a single display, allowing friends to compete simultaneously. This mode is listed alongside “Split‑Screen Online Support,” indicating that the same split‑screen arrangement can be used when connected to online servers.
Because split‑screen can coexist with online play, players may join a shared session while still competing against remote opponents. The feature therefore expands the number of participants beyond a single console without requiring additional hardware.
- Try different seating positions and viewing distances so each kart stays visible.
- Combine split‑screen with Ghost Race to add a recorded opponent.
02 / THE GUIDE
Steam Workshop Mod Support
Integrated Steam Workshop browsing is available from day one, giving instant access to more than 1500 community‑created tracks, characters and other content. Players can search, download and enable mods without leaving the game’s menus.
The built‑in browsing therefore extends replay value beyond the 16 official race tracks and six battle arenas.
- Start a new Time Trial on a downloaded track to test its layout.
- Check community ratings to identify stable and popular mods.

Variety of Game Modes
Seven core modes are listed: Race, Time Trial, Duo‑Time Trial, Battle without time limit, Elimination, Road Breaker and Quick Cut. Each mode defines its own win condition, ranging from pure speed contests to arena‑style combat.
Modes can be enjoyed solo or with others, and Team VS Team is supported both online and locally. This breadth lets groups select a style that matches their preferred pacing and competitive focus.
- Begin with Time Trial to learn track lines before entering races.
- Use Battle mode to practice handling when there is no finish line.
04 / THE GUIDE
Ranked Leaderboards and ELO
Performance is tracked through Global Rankings, Monthly ELO, All‑Time ELO and tournament standings. These rankings track competitive results across races.
These leaderboards create a competitive ladder that encourages repeated play to improve standing across multiple timeframes, offering both short‑term and long‑term goals for racers.
- Aim for consistent finishes to climb ELO steadily.
- Review top ghost data to discover optimal racing lines.
05 / THE GUIDE
Team Cups and Online Support
Cups consist of up to 24 rounds and can be set to Team VS Team, supporting both online and local play. Teams accumulate points across races or battles to determine the cup winner.
The cup system works with dedicated servers and ranked matchmaking support for team‑based events.
- Discuss character choices with teammates for balanced speed and handling.
- Check server status before starting a cup for smoother matches.
