When you and your two pals are sharing item pick-ups, driving in each other's racing lines, and skimming past one another for a boost, Team Sonic Racing shines. It offers something different in the kart racing genre.

Team Sonic Racing is a shadow of the All-Stars Racing Franchise, losing more than just a fun cast of racers in the transition. There's still some fun to be had in this derivative kart racer, but you're better off seeking two other racers to join you on the track.

A nice racing game that pivots around the team idea bringing something new to the genre, but leaving some of the things that made previous Sonic race games special.

Sonic Team Racing is possibly the most consistently fun kart racer since Mario 64.

Taken on its own merits, Team Sonic Racing is a fun karting game that doesn't quite match Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in terms of either performance or sheer level of content, but still offers satisfying handling and should still keep Sonic fans entertained for a while. It's impossible not to compare it to its predecessor, though, and in all the areas where Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed excelled, Team Sonic Racing is merely competent. By no means a bad game, then, but when we look back years from now it won't be standing on any karting game podiums.

Team Sonic Racing is an absolute blast for all ages alike and will more than play its part in the kart racer revival.

While this racer is passable to some extent, its problems will make fans yearn for a true sequel to Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed. Here’s hoping that Sumo Digital makes it way back to what worked so well in the first place.

Team Sonic Racer is an excellent kart racer, but no one's playing it.

When it comes to the nitty gritty of it all, Team Sonic Racing might not be the strongest, most innovative racer out there, but fans of Sega’s previous karting games as well as fans of Sonic will definitely find something to enjoy.

It might not be as good as Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed, but Team Sonic Racing is a joyous and remarkably fun kart racer with a smart team-based twist. Gotta go fast, and that.

Having this title on the go is much more appealing, and would definitely get more of a kick out of playing this game on a lunch break, or even trips on transport. As a fan of the kart racing genre, I totally love what they have done with this title, and am now excited to see the prospects of what’s to come in the future for the Sonic Racing series.

With some patches and some polishing, Team Sonic Racing could be satisfactory. It has some interesting ideas. Getting to race with other people and help one another, in the name of everyone in your group doing better, has some merit.

Although I found a few cracks in the facade, I still had some decent fun with this game. The Sonic aesthetic is plastered over every surface, the songs kick you out of your chair, and teamwork system adds a lot of mileage.

Team Sonic Racing feels like a major step back after the brilliant Transformed, even though it is a solid experience. overall, this game can't be seen as a valid competitor for a game like Mario Kart 8.

As a goofy party game sure to bring people together around the TV – or the Switch – Team Sonic Racing is an enjoyable meat-and-potatoes kart racer. It's no Mario Kart 8, but was it ever going to be?

In one word, Team Sonic Racing is an “enjoyable” Kart Racing game. The focus on team racing changed the gameplay in a good way and gives additional depth to the game. Team Sonic Racing is not a revolutionary Kart Racing game but it can surely entertain fans for hours as a valuable game.

Team Sonic Racing is a fun arcade racing game with familiar characters, good track designs and an emphasis on team play, which suffers from outdated graphics, lagging multiplayer and other number of problems. Do not expect revelations.
