Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, the acclaimed racing title from SEGA, has kicked off its highly anticipated Minecraft Festival, marking the game’s first major in-game event across platforms including Nintendo Switch.

Initially released to strong critical and player reception, Sonic Racing CrossWorlds has quickly become a favorite among fans of both the Sonic franchise and racing games, offering a blend of fast-paced action and vibrant visuals.

The newly launched Minecraft Festival invites players into a limited-time, team-based online competition inspired by Mojang’s world-renowned sandbox universe.

A uniquely designed Minecraft-themed track debuts as part of this festival, allowing racers to experience familiar blocky landscapes while speeding through competitive multiplayer matches.

Participation is team-based, with players joining forces as part of Team Ghast, Team Zombie, or Team Enderman.

Each team strives for the highest cumulative score throughout the event, adding a strategic cooperative layer to the traditional racing gameplay. According to a statement shared by the official Sonic Racing CrossWorlds team on social media, "The Minecraft Festival is now underway! Compete by racing as a member of Team Ghast, Team Zombie, or Team Enderman and aim for the top score.

Please note that our standard World Match mode will be temporarily unavailable during this special event period." The Minecraft Festival replaces the game’s regular World Match mode for the duration of the event, providing a fresh competitive environment and exclusive content.

Participants can earn a variety of Minecraft-themed rewards, including new cosmetic items and in-game goodies that allow them to personalize their racing experience.

These limited-time rewards are available to all players who join the festival, enhancing the sense of community and collaboration within the Sonic Racing CrossWorlds player base. Sonic Racing CrossWorlds remains available on multiple platforms, including Nintendo Switch, appealing to both series veterans and newcomers.

With its commitment to delivering regular content updates and unique crossover events like the Minecraft Festival, SEGA continues to strengthen CrossWorlds’ reputation as a standout title in the competitive racing genre.

Players interested in experiencing the festival can join the event now via the Nintendo eShop, as well as on other supported platforms. This new festival adds to a growing list of achievements and innovative content updates for Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, cementing SEGA’s ongoing support and engagement with its dedicated community.

For fans of both Sonic and Minecraft, the Minecraft Festival presents a compelling opportunity to race, compete, and celebrate two gaming icons in one dynamic event.
