Just note. Pods are a very very small part of this game.

I don't know what you mean. Do you mean that the "pod" style racers are a small part of it?

Podracing, like in Episode 1, is a small part of the game. It's fully realized and very well done, with tons of different racers and special maps that are adjusted just for these lightning fast vehicles. But they are extremely fast and hard to control, like they should be. Both in terms of gameplay and in-universe.

The majority of the game is focused on doing races while controlling one of three types of vehicles: a land speeder, a speeder bike, or a skim speeder. These have their own strengths and weaknesses and the races are as much about speed and handling as they are about smashing into the enemy racers and knocking them out of the race.

Do they still use the progression system that the n64 game had? Part of what I liked about it.

It’s not the same but there’s a quite well designed progression system
