Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds announced for 2025– All-Stars return?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HZKJ7gOZ6U

The end of the trailer appears to play the SEGA Saturn Japanese startup sound, perhaps a not to Sonic R or that the series will jump around Sonic’s racing history as well as other SEGA titles. We have read that Hardlight will be developing the game.
We here at SEGAbits have long been Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing fans, so much so that for Transformed‘s release we were invited by SEGA to play the game before it was even revealed to the public. Team Sonic Racing was a step down, mainly because it ...

Sega Lord X talks some recent developments in the retro gaming scene as 2024 comes to a close... including Sovietborgs  :twisted:  among other amazing looking projects like Kirito and Pyron's Batman Returns we're so excited about!

May be they could've had two seperate events happening along side one another, but from business point (promotion for Sonic movvie 3) it wouldn't be the best choice.

From a business point, it would be very ideal!
The way I see it, I believe the reason why the "objectives" of the Sonic Speed Sim event consist of mundane tasks is because "if Gamefam can't have your money, it will have your time!", so having two events simultaneously will mean players will have to commit twice as much time in the span of one or two weeks, depending on which event maybe extended.
I don't know if Gamefam has executive meetings with Sega, but I imagine they brag over how much "time players having fun" on Sonic Speed Sim they have, even if that time is just players doing chores for skins.

Not only that but Christmas is the most marketable time of year, it be foolish for them to miss out on it. Given how they barely did the minimum last year, felt like they did.

Yes, let's just enjoy it while it's still running.

True. Still big promotion.

Santa Claus is exist in Sonic Universe!!!

Depends if this is "canon" to the film series or not. I sometimes question if Drone Home is canon given we never see Unit again.

That's true.
Sometimes I can't understand what my youngest son said to his friends.
He's from Gen Alpha.
His older brother is Gen X.
He also has languages very different than my youngest one, which I also sometimes couldn't understand.

The fact Skibidi Toilet is now regarded cultural is also a bit depressing.

Guess we have to wait for the movie to find out.

Maybe a bit more of a wait to some than others. I may have to wait until January to see it.

These posters are so cool! Do you think it took some budget to make them? I mean, the Christmas short was nice, but I was wondering if they were going somewhere with the Robotnik Christmas bit.

My appreciation for these actors is not just for the effort they put into their roles as my favoruate video game characters, but the devotion they also put into them.

Oh nice. His artworks are so cool.
Joe Musashi (or Hayate, depended on which version of Shadow Dancer) and Alex Kidd looks more expresive in his hand.

Yeah, I wish there was more Sega artists like him.

Usually the "stylized cartoonist" grew up with Nintendo consoles.

SEGA titles in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will include Space Harrier 3D, Poseidon Wars 3D, Star Jacker,and The Ocean Hunter

Games from the Sega hardware released in 1987, the Master System, and arcade games are also included as gameplay elements.
Enjoy the timeless Sega-like titles to your heart's content!

Space Harrier 3D
This game is based on the classic shooting arcade game "Space Harrier."
It can be enjoyed using red and blue cellophane 3D glasses.

Poseidon Wars 3D
A shooting game available on the North American version of the Master System.
Use radar and sonar to search for and destroy enemy aircraft.

Starjacker
A vertical scrolling shooter game.
At the time, it was unique in that it had a system that allowed allied units to follow behind the player's own unit.

Ocean Hunter
A gun shooting game where you use an underwater gun-shaped controller to fight sea monsters.
Cooperative play was possible in the arcade version, but...!?

G Vector (SEGA Saturn) is a 3D, third person shmup that reminds of games like Space Harrier and Panzer Dragoon.

You are equipped with both a standard shot and a lock-on laser, and you move a reticle across the screen and target enemies.
There is a total of six stages. As stages are completed in the "Standard Game", they can be accessed in the "Score Attack" for practice, where you're also invulnerable.
Stage progress, scores, and the continue code are automatically saved to the Saturn's internal memory.
