Description

Team Sonic Racing is a 2019 kart racing game and a spinoff from Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog series. Controlling one of 15 characters from the series’ cast, players compete in races using sports cars. They view the game play from a third-person perspective while performing tricks, drifting, and collecting power-ups. Team Sonic Racing differs from traditional kart racers because of its focus on cooperative game play, similar to the kind featured in Splatoon (2015) and Overwatch (2016)—players are part of a team of racers and win races through efficiency rather than speed. Game modes include earning competing to earn points, time trials, customizing the racing rules, and a story-driven tutorial campaign. There are three types of racing classes: speed, technique, and power.There are 21 tracks in total, including some returning from Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing (2010) and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed (2012), each split across seven zones and based on locations from main Sonic games. Players can customize their vehicles, with new parts unlocked as they progress through the game.The game supports four-player local multiplayer, up to twelve online, and up to three in Team Adventure.
