Like the last point mentions, there will be an improvement in load times through the Boost Mode. This is a system-level overclock mode that lets the Switch CPU run at a higher clock only during loading screen in order to reduce the load times for games. It has been implemented in various games including The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey. It will be implemented in Crash Team Racing as well to fix the long load times.
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled has its first Nitro Tour Grand Prix live on all platforms. It will let users unlock Tawna Bandicoot, which is a new playable character. There are various other customization bonuses and extras available to unlock through this limited time Grand Prix.
