Disney/Pixar Cars: Mater-National Championship is an arcade style racing game based on the continuing story of Lightning McQueen from the feature film Cars. It features 13 characters in total, 3 areas and the following modes:  

      •  Story Mode

Play as one of 10 playable characters in the world of Radiator Springs, Ornament Valley, and Cadillac Range. Challenge 5 international bosses and all the residences of Radiator Springs in 17 races across 14 unique tracks.

• Challenge Mode

Challenge mode includes trophy hunt, elimination, and beat the clock. Two challenge mode events are unlocked every time you process to a new track in the story mode.

• Multiplayer

Includes 4 player single- and multi-cart modes of multiplayer. The player may race in single events or four race cup events.

The game includes Cinematic Gameplay Scenarios (or CGS). CGS are cinematic pieces of gameplay where the camera moves to a position to better show the player character, while creating gameplay complementary to the new camera angle/perspective. These exist to make gameplay feel varied and cinematic, to give the player a sense that they are playing a piece of the movie.
