1 - Yeah, they both are too popular to be out of a game like that.

2 - I found that strange too, she's probably coming as a DLC.

3 - It's neither Eggman nor Robotnik. It's Doctor Ivo.

Sadly we are missing the real GOAT tho: Honey the Cat.

Oh, you went really far now.

It would be cool if SEGA were to bring more forgotten characters. Do you remember Sonic SatAM at Bom Dia e CIA? They could add Sally and Bunnie too.

Sadly Honey is in a kind of a limbo because she is based on another character of the same name, and even as it's also from a Sega franchise they don't really like using her because of that, but I seriously would love to see her in modern games.

And yeah I do, Bunnie was fine but I really don't like Sally design, at all, lol.

And what a name for a kids show, lol, Sonic Saturday Morning becoming Sonic Satam, just... wow hahahahaha

That's not how you write Danica Patrick, the GOAT Sonic racer 😁

They will have Big the Cat, they will have Blaze the Cat, but where is the OG Honey the Cat?

They could even embrace meme culture that cat = car and make those cats actually run because they are the cars themselves.

Imagine looking back and watching Big running, stumbling from side to side, swinging his fishing pole and dropping player after player out of circuit in its path of destruction towards you.

Heh, only in my dreams.

The portals and gathering rings..... this makes so much sense, they should have done this long ago :D
This looks amasing btw.



For their sake, I hope they're not releasing anywhere near Mario Kart 9, like in 2023 when Sonic Superstars released right near Mario Bros Wonder and got crushed.

Yeah, they better wait to announce the launch date until they know when MK9 comes out. lol

It looks like fun though.

Knowing Sega, this game may release in the same month, if not the same week, as Mario Kart 9.

Lol. The only thing helping it in that regard is that it will be on all the major platforms. Imagine if it was a Nintendo exclusive or Nintendo timed exclusive. 

I probably won't get it before Mario Kart unless I wait 6 months or more after Switch 2 launches to get one. 



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

According to the game manual website, the game is running on Unreal Engine:

https://manual.sega.jp/sonicracingcrossworlds/cnt/asia_en/index.html

Prior Sonic Racing games ran on an in-house engine of Sumo's.

It's also apparently being worked on by the devs of Initial D:
