Sega has announced Sonic Racing CrossWorlds with a fleeting teaser trailer at The Game Awards 2024.
It’s due out “soon” across PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and S, and Nintendo Switch.
In a press release sent after the show, Sega teased, “Revealed during the show was Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, the racing game featuring the iconic characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog universe. The game features a distinct racing mechanic that promises to transport Sonic racing fans into a new dimension.”
It follows 2019’s Team Sonic Racing, which featured a team-based system. We wrote in our review, “Team Sonic Racing nails what matters most: speed and finesse on the racetrack. The new team system is a fantastic evolution of the arcade racing formula that gives you a real reason to work together, and there’s a litany of customization options to keep you coming back to these excellent tracks to earn more. Even though the small roster and annoying Adventure mode story could be better, Team Sonic Racing is an addictive and inventive evolution that proves Sumo Digital is at the top of its game.”
