Sega’s highly anticipated kart racing title, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, is gearing up to deliver a robust crossover experience when it launches on September 25, 2025, for PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and the Nintendo Switch.
This new entrant in the Sonic racing franchise has been attracting significant attention online, with early reviews signaling a strong start for the developer.
In keeping with Sega's tradition of ambitious crossover DLC, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is set to feature an impressive lineup of guest content.
Early reports confirmed collaboration packs featuring beloved brands such as Spongebob Squarepants, Minecraft, Pac-Man, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
However, new information sourced from Sonic Stadium has revealed that the first season pass extends even further.
Physical copies of Sonic Racing CrossWorlds have begun circulating ahead of the official release date, and inserts included in the packaging have detailed the complete first season pass lineup.
Among the previously announced DLC, fans were surprised to spot the logo for Mega Man—a collaboration that Sega had not previously discussed.
The insert also noted additional content in development based on Avatar: The Last Airbender, confirming yet another high-profile franchise is joining the game's universe.
While Sega has not yet issued an official statement on the Mega Man crossover, the presence of this iconic Capcom character in the promotional material strongly suggests Sega and Capcom have reached a partnership for the Blue Bomber to join the Blue Blur.
The season pass insert also features art depicting a character from NiGHTS: Into Dreams, another beloved Sega IP.
Based on the insert’s presentation, it is expected that the NiGHTS content will be available as a character costume rather than a comprehensive expansion, but this addition demonstrates Sega’s ongoing commitment to fan service and franchise nostalgia.
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds will be available on all major contemporary platforms, with support for PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Switch at launch.
Players awaiting the Switch 2, Nintendo’s forthcoming next-generation hardware, will need to exercise patience as support for that platform will follow at a later date.
With a rapidly expanding list of crossover content, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is positioning itself as a key entry in the kart racing genre.
Between ambitious collaborations, a robust season pass, and solid early feedback, Sega’s kart racer is shaping up to be a significant release for both Sonic fans and the wider gaming community in 2025.
