Sonic Racing Crossworlds Leak Reveals Shocking Nicktoons and Minecraft Crossovers

Sonic Racing Crossworlds, the highly anticipated racing title by SEGA, is back in the spotlight following a significant leak that has sent waves across the gaming industry.

New evidence shared by trusted leaker and X (formerly Twitter) user "F2Insider" offers a tantalizing glimpse into a suite of unexpected crossover racers joining the Sonic universe, with characters and courses spanning beyond SEGA’s traditional IPs.

This news comes at a time when the popularity of crossover titles is higher than ever, especially among Nintendo Switch and eShop audiences eager for fresh content. The leaks, comprising screenshots, video clips, and concept art, point to popular Nickelodeon franchises and beloved gaming icons making their debut in Sonic Racing Crossworlds.

Verified images and gameplay footage reveal that Spongebob Squarepants is not only a playable character, but he also arrives with an elaborately designed course based on Bikini Bottom.

Gameplay clips show Spongebob piloting his signature Krabby Patty vehicle through vibrant aquatic locales, utilizing items like a bubble-spewing foghorn inspired by elements from the show. Additional leaked assets detail a crossover with Microsoft and Mojang Studios’ global phenomenon, Minecraft.

Screenshots display Alex, a main figure from Minecraft, navigating tracks in a familiar minecart, cementing the game's commitment to diverse crossover content.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are also represented, with concept art and developer notes highlighting a rendition of the TMNT Party Wagon and parts of a New York City-themed racetrack. Another notable crossover includes Avatar: The Last Airbender, with concept art of Aang riding a hoverboard reminiscent of his air glider.

Designer notes showcased tracks stretching from Lion Turtle Island to the Southern Air Temple, incorporating unique “bending” gates that open new race paths based on elemental choices. There is also mention of SEGA’s own NiGHTS property, with presentation slides hinting at team mechanics featuring NiGHTS, Reala, and Nightopian.

Furthermore, F2Insider reported plans for a future Hatsune Miku collaboration, although visual assets for this are yet to surface.

Unreleased board designs suggest possible involvement of elements from the Sonic IDW comic series, including boards adorned with Whisper’s iconic mask eye design. The Spongebob gameplay also showcased previously unseen racetracks, like Cyberspace City from Sonic Frontiers, Dragon Road from Sonic Unleashed, and an innovative car factory environment, indicating SEGA’s commitment to broadening course variety. The inclusion of multiple Nickelodeon properties—such as Spongebob, TMNT, and Avatar—comes as no surprise given SEGA’s ongoing collaboration with Paramount, parent company of Nickelodeon, on the successful Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise.

However, as of this article’s publication, SEGA has made no official statement regarding these crossovers for Sonic Racing Crossworlds. Sonic Racing Crossworlds is poised to continue building on the legacy of SEGA’s dynamic racers, delivering ambitious crossover content that appeals to fans of both classic and contemporary gaming IPs.

With the Nintendo Switch and eShop remaining critical platforms for the game's prospective launch, fans and industry insiders are closely watching for an official reveal, especially as the Nintendo Direct and upcoming events approach.
