Whoa, okay, so SEGA’s got this wild thing cooking up—they’re dropping an animation for Sonic Racing CrossWorlds next month or something. Totally pumped for this! It’s like a promo for their new kart racing game, I guess. I mean, Sonic in karts? Sure, why not!
This game’s got wacky courses—land, air, sea—you name it. And then they throw in these Travel Rings. Sounds wild, right? Picture this: you’re zooming around, and these rings just zap you into different worlds. It’s like, “See ya, reality!”
And they’ve crammed this game full of characters. Honestly, it’s probably more than I can remember from any Sonic game ever. Mixing car parts and powers, it’s like a car enthusiast’s dream (or nightmare). Not sure if I’d have the patience for that, but hey, options!
Oh, and the updates after launch? They’ve got a mix of Sonic faves and folks from other SEGA hits—Persona 5 Royal’s Joker, Like A Dragon’s Kasuga. Even Hatsune Miku pops in. What a lineup. And for the big spenders, the Deluxe version has Netflix’s Sonic Prime characters. Plus, a Season Pass throws in folks from other famous franchises like Minecraft. Wild, right?
Anyway—what was I saying? Right, key features! It’s all about those Travel Rings making races unpredictable. You’re zipping through different dimensions mid-race. Sounds dizzying, but cool? Maybe.
They’ve got this extreme customization thing. Like, 23 characters, 24 tracks, and you can trick out your rides with 70 gadgets. It’s a lot. You can make your kart handle better or—I don’t even know—go faster? I could totally mess that up.
And the Extreme Gear is back. Those flying hoverboards that appeared in Sonic Riders—hop on for some nostalgia trips.
Mark your calendars: Sonic Racing CrossWorlds hits shelves and the Nintendo eShop for the Switch on September 25, 2025. Still waiting on when the Switch 2 version drops, though. Should be a blast (or maybe a chaotic mess, who knows).
Catch the teaser for the animation if you’re curious. I need a snack.
