Gameloft's Disney Speedstorm races into early access on 18th April on Switch, and we've got a trailer that breaks down the game's Founder's Pack.
The live service racer has three different tiers that you can kick off the racing with from its early access launch next month, and each one will give you access to additional racers (without having to unlock them), exclusive cosmetics, and in-game currency such as tokens and Golden Pass Credits. A new season will kick off every 6-8 weeks, and if you pre-order today, you'll get an exclusive bonus racing suit and car decor.
Let's break down each of the Founder's Pack tiers, then, all from the Switch eShop:
Standard Founder's Pack - $29.99
• Access to Disney Speedstorm
• Racer unlock: Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck
• Additional racer unlock of your choice
• 4000 Tokens (in-game currency)

• Exclusive Founding Member kart livery for Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and the chosen racer
• Exclusive Founder’s Motto and Avatar
Deluxe Founder's Pack - $49.99

So, the price of entry is pretty steep for the Founder's Packs, and just like Gameloft's other ongoing title — Disney Dreamlight Valley — free to play is coming at some point in the future. We just don't know when.
Will you be taking to the races as your favourite Disney character come 18th April? Let us know.

Gameloft's other "early access" game on Switch, Dreamlight Valley, is a crashfest.
This will also be a game with predatory microtransactions and FOMO tactics.
Do with this info as you will.
After the mess that is Chocobo Racing, I am passing on a micro transaction filled racing game.
The Modern Combat games by Gameloft were the most fun i've had on mobile. Too bad it's latest releases mostly comprise of projects filled to the brim with microtransactions..pass
If I'm gonna give any predatory cash grabbing racing game a chance this Spring, it's probably gonna be the Lego one. I cannot stand the awful karts and boring outfits this game has and how they think they're a "perk" worth upgrading your edition for.
Wish that this was, a racer worth fighting forrr
The ultimate founder's pack would have been tempting at a lower price. Asphalt 9 worked okay for me as I went for a base pack and went for unlocking as a game mission of my own rather than microtransactionally pay for them. In a way that is.
I have Dreamlight Valley, and haven't experienced as many crashes as people report, and I genuinely enjoy it. This, however, suggests that even if we purchase the most expensive version, we miss out on the rest of the founder outfits beyond the character we choose. This goes beyond FOMO purchase — it legitimately locks us out of being able to unlock everything. Not into it.
@DogDetective Chocobo and Multiversus. I'll play this, but I'm probably not paying much unless I get Ratigan in a zeppelin.
Follow Fantasia.
