Sega recently shared some details about pre-race character interactions in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, including those between characters that have rarely met in previous games. A new Sonic kart racer is zooming onto all major platforms on September 25, this time featuring Sonic and his many different friends and enemies warping between dimensions using ring-like portals during races. Fans have been getting to see more of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds in action, including looks at the many different characters that will be available at launch.
The Sonic the Hedgehog franchise has no shortage of iconic characters, and Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds promises to have a massive roster to accommodate them. As one would expect from a series that has lasted as long as Sonic has, many of these characters have a personal history with each other, with Sonic himself maintaining rivalries with the likes of Dr. Eggman, Shadow the Hedgehog, and various other villains and anti-heroes. Other characters haven't interacted much at all, and Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds will reflect this in its pre-race dialogue.
Even though Mario Kart World and Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds are releasing close together, the two are better standing side by side than as rivals.
