Description

SEGA has unveiled another addition to its highly anticipated racing title, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, with the introduction of a new track dubbed Hidden World.

Drawing inspiration from Lost Hex, the vibrant realm first introduced in Sonic Lost World—a game that launched on the Nintendo Wii U and Nintendo 3DS back in 2013—the Hidden World course promises a visually striking experience filled with neon and psychedelic colors. Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, set to launch soon on major platforms including the Nintendo Switch, continues to generate excitement among fans of both arcade racers and the enduring Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.

The latest reveal showcases SEGA’s commitment to honoring the series’ storied past while offering fresh, engaging content for today’s players. The Hidden World track captures the distinctive art style and dynamic design elements that defined Lost Hex in Sonic Lost World.

Players familiar with the original stage will recognize the bold geometric patterns and otherworldly landscapes, now reimagined in glorious high-definition.

As seen in SEGA’s newly released gameplay footage, racers will navigate tight corners, soaring jumps, and loops enveloped in cascading neon lights—keeping the momentum high and the challenges unpredictable. Reflecting on the design approach, SEGA representatives emphasized their goal to blend classic Sonic worlds with innovative level structures tailored for competitive multiplayer racing.

They underscored that Hidden World was conceived to bring a unique mix of nostalgia and novelty, providing a stage where long-time Sonic fans and newcomers alike can test their racing skills: "We aimed to create a course that both echoes the history of Sonic and offers something visually and mechanically exciting for players on modern platforms," a spokesperson noted. Sonic Racing CrossWorlds continues the legacy of SEGA’s celebrated racing spin-offs, each known for inventive courses and fast-paced, family-friendly gameplay.

Previous Sonic racing titles have earned acclaim for their robust track selection, and the addition of Hidden World aligns with the tradition of integrating memorable series locales into the roster. No official release date for Sonic Racing CrossWorlds has yet been confirmed, but anticipation is high as the game is set to join the Nintendo Switch library and potentially roll out via the Nintendo eShop following upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations.

With the unveiling of innovative tracks like Hidden World, SEGA signals its intent to deliver a racing experience packed with both callbacks to beloved Sonic adventures and all-new thrills tailored for the current generation of gamers.
