Description If you would like to talk about Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled.
Then please head over to the "sequel" to this picture, it is based on all the current information and is better overall:
www.deviantart.com/arcgaming91…

Thank you.

UPDATE 11/6-2019:
With Penta Penguin being confirmed as a "Speed-character", I decided to move around the cast once more. This time seperating the currently confirmed cast with the ones that I speculate will be in.

UPDATE 18/5-2019:
Based on the information that was released a few days ago in the two livestreams Beenox had. I decided to move some characters around, while not removing anyone.

Hello everyone, I am excited for Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled and decided to make this little roster prediction.

This is based on the information that we have so far and some of the things that I am speculating will appear in the game.Β Taking all the characters from Crash Team Racing, all the characters from Crash Nitro Kart (including the bosses), all the characters from Crash Tag Team Racing, some additional Naughty Dog-Era characters and Spyro the Dragon. We get a roster of 36 playable characters, with nine for each category.

I did what I could to make sure that all the characters were balanced, by looking at the stats that most of them had in their original games.

Here is my entire speculated roster (newer placements):
ALL-AROUND:
CONFIRMED
1. Crash Bandicoot
2. Dr. Neo Cortex
3. Fake Crash
4. Komodo Joe
5. Geary
6. Small Norm
UNCONFIRMED
7. Spyro the Dragon
8. Fake Velo
9. Komodo Moe

ACCELERATION:
CONFIRMED
1. Coco Bandicoot
2. Dr. N. Gin
3. N. Trance
4. Nash
5. Nitros Oxide
6. Pinstripe Potoroo
UNCONFIRMED
7. Pasadena O'Possum
8. Dr. N. Brio
9. Tawna

SPEED:
CONFIRMED
1. Penta Penguin
2. Big Norm
3. Crunch Bandicoot
4. Dingodile
5. Dr. Nefarious Tropy
6. Papu Papu
7. Tiny Tiger
8. Zem
UNCONFIRMED
9. Koala Kong

HANDLING:
CONFIRMED
1. Krunk
2. Polar
3. Pura
4. Ripper Roo
5. Real Velo
6. Zam
UNCONFIRMED
7. Nina Cortex
8. Baby T
9. Ebenezer von Clutch

If you want to discuss some things, then feel free to ask in the comments down below.

I am sure the characters from Crash Tag Team Racing can be controversial. But we do know that the skins, karts and those announcer chickens from that game are in the game. So why not the characters? There are only three of them and one of them seem to be very requested anyways.

Characters from Tag Team Racing have been confirmed to be in a future Grand Prix-event.
As for Brio, I am sure he is coming due to how heavily requested he is.
Along with Koala Kong and Komodo Moe.

I gotta ask though.
I have heard from some people that you only have to beat N. Tropy's times in Time Trial on the CTR-tracks in order to unlock him.
Is it true or must I do the CNK-tracks as well?

I guess it is all the Nitro Kart tracks as well then.
Oh well, I need to have 7200 coins in order to unlock N. Trance anyways.

Nice!

Though when Penta was revealed, he was apparently a speed character. And doesn't it seem a little... odd that Komodo Moe is the same class as Joe?

ARCGaming91 In reply to Rose-Supreme [2019-06-10 14:02:27 +0000 UTC]

I will update this once we have more information revealed.
Since I did switch a bunch of characters around, such as Zem and Real velo once I learned where they belonged.

As for Komodo Moe, I thought that he would be All-Around like his brother to make things even.
Like how both Crash and Fake Crash are All-Around.

Howeverm if Moe is in the game and is in a different category, then he could be switched around as well.

Indeed.

And WHOA! What a news dump it was. Tawna AND the Trophy Girls confirmed~!

Though unfortunately their stats seem less varied - Megumi and Liz are Handling, Tawna and Isabella are Acceleration and Ami is Speed. Should've made Megumi Acceleration and Isabella All-Round, or optionally swap them around.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ARCGaming91 In reply to Rose-Supreme [2019-06-12 12:52:25 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I would have preferred if each of the Trophy Girls were in seperate categories, except for the Acceleration-one since she shares it with Tawna.

But yeah, it sure is awesome to see all this stuff! I am so hyped for Baby T!
Though I am still not fully in the know if all the Grand Prix-stuff can be unlocked after the event is over, in case I miss anything.
Do you know something about this. Then please, tell me.

Rose-Supreme In reply to ARCGaming91 [2020-04-05 05:35:38 +0000 UTC]

Luckily they were given their own unique driving style in the final release - Megumi is now Acceleration.

This is really old, I know. We have Engine Swap so we can use any driving class with any character we please.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ARCGaming91 In reply to Rose-Supreme [2020-04-05 06:56:37 +0000 UTC]

Yes, we do have Engine Swap which is a good thing.
Though I am still a little bummed that there are so many characters in the Speed-category.

Just look at the latest picture in this "series" and you will see what I am talking about.

Only 10 days left and the game just keeps getting better and better with every news drop!
Β 
And speaking of news drops: Activision is going to have 3 more livestreams of Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled where we'll very likely get more news on whats gonna be in the Game.
Here's the link: blog.activision.com/crash-band…
The only characters missing now are:
Koala Kong
Dr. Nitrus Brio
Komodo Moe
Wild Hog or some small character for handling
Rilla Roo
Emperor Velo XXVII
Evil Crash or The Evil Twins
Nina Cortex
Pasadena O'Possum
Ebenezer Von Clutch
Yaya Panda
Plus any other potential characters that might make it in wether they're other Crash characters, Spyro Characters, Skylander characters or even Guest Stars like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger.
Β 
Also just an idea for your roster prediction list (if you want) you can have Fake Velo still be in Advanced, have Komodo Moe in Acceleration and have Rilla Roo, Yaya Panda and a character from Twinsanity (Evil Twins, Evil Crash) in All-Around, plus have the Hog in Turning.

And here I thought I was expecting too much for having a roster as big as my prediction here. XD
Yeah, this is going to be incredible! Good thing I never bought Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for my Switch.
When this superior Kart-Racer is arriving soon enough.

Great wish roster! it's almost like my own!Β Β  Β 
I seriously hope the roster turns out like this cause I really don't want Beenox and Activision to just leave the roster with the 25 or so characters they have cause otherwise Coco will still be the only girl in the game and it would kind of be a waste of potential - one of my biggest pet peeves in gaming
But I have confidence they're gonna surprise us with a roster like this.
Plus to increase it to 40 characters I was thinking:
Handling - Wild Hog
All-Around - Yaya Panda
Acceleration - Evil Twins
Speed - Rilla Roo

ARCGaming91 In reply to TheVirtualman [2019-05-18 05:48:22 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much.
I sure hope that Beenox can pull through and give us an Amazing racing game.

I will update the roster based on the information that I learned in the two recent livestreams they did.
So far, they have not disappointed in the slightest.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheVirtualman In reply to ARCGaming91 [2019-05-24 00:47:56 +0000 UTC]

Welp, we only have to wait a little under a month now before we finally get to play Nitro Fueled and I am so excited I can't wait anymore!Β 

But oh man I'm dying to see if there will be any more characters outside of the 25 characters that've been confirmed. Cause like I've said: one of my biggest pet peeves in gaming is wasted potential, like forgetting about all these other colorful Naughty Dog and especially Post Naughty Dog characters that can add so much variety, content and extra playtime hours to the game or let alone leaving Coco as the playable girl would be just stupid - which I hope doesn't happen.
Don't get me wrong, the 25 we have is awesome but It's still not enough and I'm very sure we'll get more but man the suspense is killing me. I really want the final roster AT LAUNCH to be EXACTLY like yours with my 4 extra ideas - Wild Hog, Yaya Panda, Evil Twins and Rilla Roo so we'll have 40 characters to play with.
Plus I just wanna piss off all the "purists" who hate the idea of Post ND characters being included, by adding in as many post ND characters as possible. Β 

Still, I'm not disappointed with the game so far, well except for the fact that the CTTR tracks have been deconfirmed but we might get them later as DLC. And also asking for the CTTR characters is not that controversial as a lot of people are asking for them too. But here's to hoping for a roster like ours in the final game on Day 1.Β  Β

ARCGaming91 In reply to TheVirtualman [2019-05-24 13:47:48 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, E3 is around the corner so we may see some more characters join in.
Maybe we will also see the Trophy Girls.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheVirtualman In reply to ARCGaming91 [2019-05-24 18:13:57 +0000 UTC]

I hope so, and especially since the girls are absent from the trophy podiums they might make it in. Even though the Trophy Girls are not on my wish list I still see tons of people demanding to see them alongside some other characters that aren't on my list like the Tribesman, Lab Assistant, Willy Wampa Cheeks, even Madame Amberly, Farmer Earnest and Rusty Walrus.
Even though those characters are not my top priority but if they get in then cool. But I can safely say that the roster shown is not final and if you look at the Playstation Underground gameplay footage, and when you go to the part where they open up the skins section for Crash, I noticed that 2 of Crash's 9 confirmed skins are missing, plus they didn't show off Glacier Park. So they are leaving some stuff out for a surprise and they are still adding stuff which gives me more hope of my dream roster becoming a reality.

Either way I can tell this game is going to be great.

ARCGaming91 In reply to TheVirtualman [2019-05-25 07:49:06 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I don't care if the Trophy Girls are playable or if they reprise the roles they had in the original CTR.
It would feel odd if they were missing.
Though if they are, I hope it isn't for political reasons.

TheVirtualman In reply to ARCGaming91 [2019-05-28 02:48:00 +0000 UTC]

Welp, time will tell in about 2 weeks when E3 comes to town. And by then we'll see what characters Beenox and Activision have been hiding from us - including if the Trophy Girls will be playable characters, cameos like with Chick and Stew, or not.
Plus a recent Activision post has them telling us that for the following weeks, they'll be showing us many of CTRNF's features, and I can't wait to see what those "features" will be.Β They might be, Game Modes, New Tracks, New Characters, DLC or something else. Β

I found out about the post onΒ  crashynews.wordpress.com/Β - it's a wonderful news site that is super dedicated to keeping up on everything Crash Related.

Basically on one of Activision's Game Blogs, they're going to update it weekly (presumably on fridays) from what I heard. If you want to see it for yourself here's the link to the article on Crashy News which then has the link to the Activision Post Blog.

ARCGaming91 In reply to GentlemenCigarLover [2019-05-17 15:05:47 +0000 UTC]

So would I.
Even if we aren't getting the Tag-Team Racing Tracks, we could still get the characters.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

GentlemenCigarLover In reply to ARCGaming91 [2019-05-17 15:18:55 +0000 UTC]

It's possible.

And while it's unlikely, I can see the roster increases to 48 thanks to DLCs. They could have the Thropy Girls, Ripto, Ripper Roo, Lab Assistant, Bearminator (The boss in Crash Bash), Willis, Chick, Stew (Those three from Tag Team), and Yaya.

And I have an idea for a post game. If players unlocks everything from charcaters to stickers, a portal would appear where they would take on the greatest racers in the universe - Mario and Bowser. They'd be the hardest boss races, and if you beat them, you can unlock them as racers, and get a track based on their world. Wouldn't that be cool?

ARCGaming91 In reply to GentlemenCigarLover [2019-05-17 15:21:37 +0000 UTC]

I am not sure the later is possible.

But we shall see if we do get DLC.
I mean the Trophy Girls would be nice to have in the game.
Whatever they are layable or well... Trophy Girls.

I would be surprised if they do that. Then again, they did unveiled Retro Crash, Cortex, and Coco. Would've like to see Retro Tiny, N.Gin, Dingodile, Polar, and Pura.

And speaking of retro, I think the retro track will be Papu's Pyramid. In the original CTR demo, you can play on Papu's Pyramid. The first track you saw in Nitro-Fueled trailer was Papu's Pyramid. The cover art took place at Papu's Pyramid. And we have to remember they had a dramatic change comparing both tracks.

BTW, what do you think of hub worlds and intro? They looked AMAZING! Still no N-Gin, though.
