While very similar to a traditional kart racer video game, Digimon Racing utilizes the series' trademark of Digivolving characters into more powerful variations of themselves into gameplay. Each character can digivolve by obtaining a special item, making their abilities much more potent. In addition, several items scattered throughout the various race tracks can help the characters launch offensive attacks against their opponents, hindering their progress.

In all, there are 15 separate courses (12 racing courses, three boss courses), each with their own layout and hazards, including other Digimon. Three separate play modes: Grand Prix, Cup Mode, and Time Trail, are also available.
