Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds News [Unofficial] @soniccrossworlds.bsky.social · 18h

In a new interview with Takashi Iizuka, he mentions that there is potential for more content for #SonicRacingCrossWorlds, meaning we could get even more DLC depending on how the game performs.

Not only does this include new characters/crossovers, but even other stuff like new gadgets!

Screenshot from a new interview with Sonic series producer Takashi Iizuka, talking about the potential to support Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds beyond the first year.

(“We really appreciate all the positive comments we've gotten from fans and from reviewers. People really like the game, which gives us the confidence to continue making more content,” series producer Takashi Iizuka told me during Brasil Game Show. However, to determine the next steps they are taking, Sonic Team wants to build a strong path based on player feedback.

“If enough people are coming in and playing it, there's conversations about the game. We have one year of DLC, we could do year two, we could do year three of DLC,” Iizuka says. “Tell us what you want!” Sonic: CrossWorlds being an online game gives room for the team to expand its content in the future. “These are the things we can do because it is an online game. We could add new gadgets, we could balance the game differently.”)

Automaton's good about translating their own stuff so I'll leave the details to them, but it's the most insightful discussion I've seen from the Sonic Crossworlds devs re: their team/design DNA, Initial D-specific precepts vs. general racing design, etc automaton-media.com/articles/int... 🇯🇵

SEGA really needs to have festival modes only run for 12 hrs a day during the event and have normal ranked for the other 12. I say this not because I hate festival mode, but because there being no downtime for Festival Title grinding encourages destructive behavior.

Via 4Gamer, the free characters for Crossworlds will largely be centered around ‘SEGA’s legendary characters’, rather than more Sonic picks

(Machine TL, my apologies)
