Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Draws Strong Early Reviews as Physical Flyers Point to Mega Man DLC

Early reviews highlight fast, inventive racing, plus concerns about limited solo content and grindy progression.

Overview

  • SEGA’s kart racer launches September 25 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Switch and PC, with a dedicated Switch 2 version due later in 2025.
  • Critic aggregation sits around 82 on Metacritic, with praise for the CrossWorlds portal mechanic, tight handling and deep vehicle tuning with 70+ Gadgets.
  • Reviewers note a lean single‑player offering, slow currency earn rates that make unlocks feel grindy, and visual issues like heavy motion blur on some platforms.
  • SEGA has confirmed Season Pass packs including Minecraft in October and SpongeBob SquarePants in November, with Pac‑Man, Avatar Legends and TMNT: Mutant Mayhem also planned.
  • Physical copies circulating early include promotional materials that appear to reveal Mega Man as an additional DLC partner and NiGHTS artwork on the box, reports that have not yet been formally confirmed by SEGA.
