Julius Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Well, I’m in. We didn’t have Mario Kart on the Wii as kids (I know, shame on us), but Sonic and SEGA All Stars Racing more than made up for that, and me and my little brother and sister must have sunk hundreds of hours into the game over several summers.

It was the better game anyway. 4
Dcubed Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 The screenshots look decent, but man, dumping the overarching SEGA characters in favour of an all Sonic cast really strips it of much of the appeal of the previous games. Also there’s no sign of any other vehicles, implying that they’re going back to the Kart only racing of the first game instead of the superior sequel... ... everything about this game seems like a huge step back from SAASRT... hopefully it’ll still be good though. 1
MindFreak Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Didn't Sega state that it wasn't Sonic Racing?? I enjoyed Transformed when I played it on Xbox so will look further into this when it comes out.

Big time. No Ulala, Amigo, AiAi, Beat, B.D. Joe... They needed to be keeping all those characters plus adding even more (Yakuza characters would’ve been awesome ) not reducing it to Sonic only. 1
Emerald Emblem Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 If its going the Sonic only route, lets hope it continues the trend of bringing old characters back ala Sonic Mania. If Ray, Mighty, Bean, Fang and Bark are added that would be great. 1
MindFreak Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I've never understood why Sonic has a (race) car in the first place. 1
Ganepark32 Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 The last two were the best kart racers I've played in a long time (since Mario Kart DS) so I'm more than happy to see a new one. Gutted that they're removing the Sega characters and just sticking with Sonic as well as removing the transform aspect but at least we'll have a competent kart racer where rubberbanding can be turned off (please let that still be an option). If it can handle as well as it did and the courses are good then this should be an instant win and one up over Mario Kart (I really didn't like 7 or 8).
Mandalore Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I wasn't really bothered about all the other Sega characters and levels in the previous games. The Sonic series has so many cool locations to choose from, looking forward to seeing what Zones get tracks.
Ike Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Sega dropped a teaser trailer, doesn't show much. Gotta go fast, ect.

Well, here is the answer: Quote “So we’re going to set the record straight just in case. If he’s not in a car guys, the race is over before it’s begun. You know this. You know he’s fast. He’s faster than cars, so we gotta equalize the playing field. So please, spread the word if you see anyone curious why he’s in a car, there you go.”

drahkon Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 ROCKET. Anyway, looks like it plays like Sonic All Stars Racing Transformer's kart sections. Seeing as that game is arguably better than every Mario Kart entry (except Super Mario Kart) I'm looking forward to this. Hope there will be a demo.
MindFreak Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 It looks awfully slow - I hope it's 50cc on that footage.
Aneres11 Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Looks like it's been delayed until May 2019. Sad about that, as it looked like it would have been a nice Christmas / Winter gem to play through! https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/10/29/team-sonic-racing-delayed-to-may-2019/
Ike Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 New 2 part tie-in animation. Part 1 has been released already. 1 1
Ike Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 There was a new trailer as well: Also you can buy the tshirt from the cartoon: https://segashop.co.uk/collections/new/products/official-sonic-the-hedgehog-froggy-t-shirt 1
Dcubed Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) The visuals seem to have gotten a nice upgrade. Seems like the delay did it quite a bit of good! Will have to wait and see though... the concept still isn't grabbing me like Transformed did... Edited March 18, 2019 by Dcubed
