Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift – Fun Racing with Drifting and Lasagna

A Sequel That Stays True to Its Meme Roots

In the middle of major game releases like Hollow Knight Silksong and Borderlands 4, Garfield makes his quirky return with Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift. Developed by Microids and Eden Games, this sequel sticks to its simple philosophy: three-lap races, silly items, and of course, eating lasagna.

Stress Test on Steam

Currently, Garfield Kart 2 is running a stress test on Steam until August 24. Even with limited content, it’s clear that the game embraces its identity: a Garfield-themed Mario Kart alternative on a budget. However, this sequel introduces key new features, including drifting mechanics and kart customization.

Characters and Customization

Playable characters are limited for now: Garfield, Nermal, and Liz. Interestingly, Liz stands out with her high-speed stats, making her a strong pick. The addition of kart customization brings more depth than the first game, offering flexibility and even rivaling some bigger kart racers in terms of detail.

Gameplay and Tracks

The highlight of Garfield Kart 2 is drifting. Similar to modern kart racers, players can hold the drift button while turning, with bonus style points for mid-air tricks. This makes the controls smoother compared to the stiff handling of the first game.

The two available tracks are designed with drifting in mind:

• A neon-lit city with rooftop shortcuts

• A Spaghetti Western cowboy town full of sharp turns

Even small details like slanted track edges add opportunities for advanced tricks.

Lighthearted, Not Revolutionary

Unlike competitors such as Sonic CrossWorld or Mario Kart World, Garfield Kart 2 doesn’t aim for complexity. Instead, it embraces absurd humor, simple mechanics, and meme-like charm. It’s not a groundbreaking racing game, but it’s the kind of title that ends up in your Steam Library—whether bought on a whim or gifted as a joke.

Conclusion

Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift is a light, fun racing game that doesn’t try to compete with the big names. With drifting, customization, and its unique Garfield charm, it may surprise players looking for a casual racer in the busy release season.

Because at the end of the day, Garfield only cares about two things: lasagna and crossing the finish line first.
