Racer Revenge features seven new podracers not appearing in the previous game: Knire Dark, Shrivel Braittrand, Occo Ninebar, Kraid Nemmeso, Wan Sandage Jr., "Scorch" Zanales and Tzidik Wrantojo. Some podracers from The Phantom Menace were left out of Racer Revenge. These podracers are Ratts Tyerell, Neva Kee, Elan Mak, Ark "Bumpy" Roose, Ebe Endocott, and Boles Roor. Neva Kee was featured in many images of early versions of the game.

In addition, Episode I Racers new characters, such as Slide Paramita, Fud Sang, Toy Dampner, Bozzie Baranta, and Navior, do not appear, although Fud Sang's flag does appear during some tracks.
