Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Adds Mega Man Collaboration in Latest Season Pass Update on Nintendo Switch

Sega’s competitive kart racer, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, sees a major content boost as the iconic Mega Man franchise from Capcom joins its growing lineup of crossover collaborations.

Released for Nintendo Switch on September 25, 2025, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version set to arrive at a later date, the title has quickly garnered attention for its ambitious Season Pass, which hosts a variety of famous characters and themed courses. The Mega Man collaboration was officially revealed this week following earlier reports of unauthorized leaks, which surfaced after some physical copies became available ahead of the scheduled street date.

Sega has now confirmed Mega Man and Proto Man as the latest additions to the Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds roster.

Players can look forward to racing as these classic Capcom heroes, each equipped with their own distinctive design and gameplay features.

Completing the Mega Man content pack is the debut of a brand-new Mega Man-inspired racetrack and Rush—Mega Man’s loyal robotic canine—making an appearance as a new vehicle, aptly named the Rush Roadster. An official trailer, released alongside the update, showcases these new characters in action and teases the dynamic synergy of Sega’s latest partnership with Capcom.

This collaboration joins other high-profile Season Pass crossovers, including Minecraft and Nickelodeon, as well as earlier announced racers from franchises such as Sonic Prime, Persona, and Yakuza: Like A Dragon. According to The Sonic Stadium, news of the Mega Man content was confirmed through several sources, including video evidence shared with the fan-centric publication.

The information was first spotted in a game insert found within leaked early retail copies.

The promotional material highlighted the full suite of Season Pass partnerships, offering fans a glimpse into the broader scope of post-launch support for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. In addition to the character roster expansion, visuals on the reverse cover feature NiGHTS alongside other Sega and crossover favorites, reinforcing CrossWorlds’ status as a celebration of both Sega’s and its partners’ storied gaming heritage.

Sega has also assured fans that there will be continued communication about future collaborations and free guest character updates. For Nintendo Switch enthusiasts, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is available now, with a paid upgrade planned for those looking to enhance their experience when the game arrives on Switch 2.

The game is available physically and digitally via the Nintendo eShop, ensuring broad access for fans eager to experience this multi-franchise kart racing spectacle.

With new DLC and crossover content rolling out, Sega’s latest racer is poised to remain a focal point in Nintendo’s expansive gaming library.
