Sega has officially announced Team Sonic Racing coming this winter for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Steam (PC). Below is the reveal trailer along with detail of game.
Original Story:
For weeks, Sega has made teases about the game through Sonic the Hedgehog’s social media and unexpectedly, Walmart.com leaks the product on their website. Oops!
Here are the details based off of Walmart.com:
Team Sonic Racing combines the best elements of arcade and fast-paced competitive style racing as you face-off with friends in intense multiplayer racing. Race together and work together as a team by sharing power-ups and speed boosts. Take control of your racing style – Choose from 3 distinct character types and unlock game changing vehicle customization options to suit your racing style. Speed up. Gear Up Team Racing at Sonic Speed!
- Online Multiplayer & Local Co-Op Modes 12 players per race, 4 player split screen, and various offline / online race modes including Grand Prix Mode, Exhibition Mode, Time-Trial and Team Adventure Mode.
- Team Racing Race as a team, win as a team. Use various team moves to assist your teammates, knock out opponents and unleash your Team Ultimate.
- Performance & Skin Customization Alter the appearance and handling of your vehicle.

- Adventure Mode Unique story experience where players are introduced to basic game features and characters.
- Various Characters and Classes 15 playable characters from across the Sonic Universe and 3 distinct character types including Speed, Technique, and Power classes.
The game is developed by Sumo Digital, same team who has worked on past Sonic racing titles such as 2010’s Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing and 2012’s Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Expect a vast amount of similarity with this upcoming title. The game is slated for the Nintendo Switch but we expect it to be on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well. An announcement of the game will most likely come out soon from Sega and team.
