WHERES BLACK KNIGHT REPRESENTATION

I mean it’s cool to see other games getting noticed from sonic games. But… but black knight 😢

At least Camelot castle, misty lake or dragon’s cave (think that’s why it’s called.)

[silver hatch]

Dragon's Lair, a play on Dragon Slayer.

[thin zinc]

Yh that’s the one

I knew

It was dragon something 💀💀

So are vocal themes confirmed for some tracks if crush 40 is doing some

[frosty birch]

Track looks fun and the turns could be increasing at higher speeds

[silver hatch]

Might be, the number one means we are very likely get more DJ Mixes though!

[frosty birch]

And the social post specified crush 40

[frosty birch]

Imagine if miku does a couple of tracks

[night jetty]

Apparently you can make the crossworld tracks optional to play the normal tracks fully

Isnt that pretty cool

Even tsr lets you make the team mechanic optional

I feel like it’s one of the most toggleable game ever

Oh did you my bad I wonder if we can unlock super sonic by playing the GP with what ever setting we won't like team node on crossworlds off or solos with crossworlds and no rival as examples

[night jetty]

Pretty sure you can turn off the rival

And change their levels

As for super sonic it’s already been confirmed since the sgf trailer iirc

[night jetty]

I have a fear of microtransactions being included in crossworlds

[craggy glacier]

What?

Where is this fear coming from? I don't think it'll happen at all

[night jetty]

I was in a bad mood honestly. Basically someone was asking if itll have microtransactions. I didnt get what it actually is and it was tricky for me to answer. I thought they meant if you can buy a dlc season pass or smth so i said yes and suddenly theyre so shocked that they keep predicting itll be a major flop and that sega fell off hard and blindly keep treating their subjective claim as objective 10000x. I was confused whats wrong with it until i figured out what it actually is, and i deeply regret answering that so i was trying to correct smth but they think im taking it back

But in addition that fear came initially from the steam community mentioning about microtransactions in crossworlds. So yea that was what i regretfully said yes cuz of it

[sand estuary]

In General, the Sonic Community on had been going on completly viral on CrossWorlds like it has Denuvo DRM for example in the Steam Commmunityhub. Then there's also the Question, if there'd be Voice Acting or not on Werehog and DLC Characters as well as the Price, although People bought MKW despite the Prices fgs. Sometimes, I don't really understand, how these Kinds of Things can upset People that much. Heck, I've seen on Steam Communityhub Threads about boycotting the Game and SEGA.

[night jetty]

I dont understand either

Crossworlds is priced very well unlike mkw

And the reason it’s more expensive than mainline is cuz the licenses, and the licenses can be thousand to million times expensive

People buy mkw despite the price maybe cuz it’s mainline?

There’s so many crossovers for this game and I’m all here for it

[frosty birch]

The issue is the same as football/soccar games EA or mrio kart in this case dominate the genre so can make these controversial changes and get away with it also people just hate sonic racing crossworlds cause it's not mario kart and I get no va sucks but I would rather have silent wherehog than no wherehog

I just had a thought, hear me out chat

What if Sonic Team learned from their lesson and they are saving the cool characters and tracks for the game and not making any post about them? Like, Infinite as a character

Lowkey, I feel that'd be so cool

[night jetty]

Didnt sonic team already learned their lesson since frontiers?

[frosty birch]

But we alreadu know the full base roster and no infinitesimal not in it

Full roster?

Youre talking about the leak right?

No I was talking about what we saw at state of play everyone base roster was shown I that trailer minus super sonic

[torpid basin]

I have a feeling we aren't getting any more sonic characters

[mental gyro]

Hmm when will they even showcase the characters being brought from TMNT/Avatar?

[mossy inlet]

Kirby air riders then

[astral grail]

That means there’s one more dlc to announce in the season pass

[sand estuary]

End of August/Beginning of September
Either seperated or combined

[mental gyro]

Either close to release day or early 2026. I mean if Pac-Man is early 2026 that means every other collab following it will be in the same year.

[night jetty]

I now knew it thx to you

[sand estuary]

Confirmed indeed

[astral grail]

Hopefully this one isn’t exclusive to one console

[mental gyro]

Yea...

It doesn't say it is so hopefully it isn't

[dense parrot]

and the last collab will gained revealed before or after?

[mental gyro]

Beat case scenario it'll be for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Prbly Nintendo Switch 2 too

[sand estuary]

Based on the Image from Tails' Channel Tweet, it's on PS5, XBox Series Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 1, Steam and Epic Games

And if one of us gets rejected from the ONT then..
I'll go through every cyberspace portal, giant animal, CrossWorld, Radical Highway DOOM, confront Donut Lord, get bombarded with angry avians, and yea... man this is ridiculously hard.

[astral grail]

I don’t think we get chosen for the beta. It’s available for everyone

Thank goodness cause I’ve been looking forward for this

Well that’s what it’s for anyway. To see what bugs we ran across.

Makes me wonder even more why it was limited to PS5 before. Guess some contract. Dark Beginnings (cut scenes and stuff) is exclusive to the PS version of SXSG. Srsly what is the deal with SEGA and PS?

The superstars level seems to be mixing multiple zones together

There were screenshots that also had sky temple, speed jungle and press factory

Also from the streamed content from Gamescom so far, it seems to be the same build as before, nothing added from the recent track confirmations. Don’t know if they’ll update it later tho

[night jetty]

Thats what happened to when he collabed with minecraft and he made me revisit it after years

He was like “TOUCH THE GRASS“ treatment to me

The new trailer Is peak

[craggy glacier]

hop on crossworlds

[mossy inlet]

When i saw the frontiers tracks and the remix of i'm here

Absolute peak
(I love frontiers)

[distant mason]

Just dreaming here, but I would love to see Infinite and a Null Space track because I still feel cheated out of that stage in Forces.

That said, I'm still very excited for this game and the tracks shown so far.

Wait so qe can group up to 11 people

[sand estuary]

Ye

[astral grail]

I checked the English website and turns out it’s the entire Northstar Islands

Oh I didn’t show the name lol

There we go

[torpid basin]

We do have mystic jungle sooo

[barren pelican]

I can't wait to play! 🔥

[dense parrot]

1 day after of is out he has the open test

[night jetty]

So is the sign up opened yet?

[sand estuary]

No

Take a Look at this

[distant mason]

But no Null Space 😢 It looked so cool in Forces, yet we just...doubled boost right out of it. We didn't get to actually do anything in it.

[astral grail]

Just to give everyone a recap about the ONT
*It’s on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC
*The ONT won’t require a PS+ or a Nintendo Switch Online Membership to play it
*And you get these for participating in the ONT

[sand estuary]

Huh, that's interesting

In the official SRCW Site in the West, we see Sage in her "Evil" Form, but on the official SRCW Site in Asia, she has her good Form

[astral grail]

I wonder if that’s a Skin for Sage like the Ghosts

[dense parrot]

I love it look the appearance of rider for if he has multi skin

[sand estuary]

Wdym?
I talked about Sage, not them

[dense parrot]

Yes I know

[sand estuary]

And as you know, it's a She
Since when did I mentioned the Boys? 😕

[dense parrot]

Idk the message was more for pac-dan than for you bc it’s him of he as speak of skin Xd

[astral grail]

I was talking about the Ghosts not Sage

[sand estuary]

Then ping them instead of me if you want to leave the Message fitting to the other

^

[dense parrot]

Yes

[dense parrot]

Aaaaah ok

[astral grail]

Sorry about that Chrono.

[sand estuary]

Anyway, let's move on

[astral grail]

But as for your Sage convo about her red and blue attire, I believe those are color alts for Sage. Where you can either make her red like in frontiers
Or make her blue after frontiers

[dense parrot]

Aaaaah ok interesting

[sand estuary]

In that Case, we can change the Attire of the Ghosts and Sage themselves as their own Skins

[astral grail]

Which is pretty cool if that’s the case for Sage if anyone prefers her red attire instead of blue

[night jetty]

Aw man

I already preordered it on xbox one

And now i cant get it cuz the ont is on xbox series x and not one

https://tenor.com/view/sonic06-sonic-the-hedgehog-sad-disappointed-hit-ground-gif-27172303

[dense parrot]

Rip

[night jetty]

Watch me getting this automatically on steam even tho im more of a console player

Oh well

I hope it wont be locked behind it in the future

Sa1 sonic skin and classic sonic jam skin for sxsg are set free from exclusives so

[sand estuary]

Well, you can use Controllers with Wires or wireless to connect it with the PC and play that instead of the Keyboard

[night jetty]

Bro you reminded me about when i got this for participating i need to figure out how the hell do i transfer it to a console i already preordered crossworlds on

[frosty birch]

Wasn't she in her "good" form in the state of play trailer though

[astral grail]

She was but I’m pretty sure we can use her red attire as a skin for Sage

[sand estuary]

It's not like it isn't possible though

Also, new Track has been teased there on the Race Park Mode

[frosty birch]

Is that not the superstars track

[fresh night]

I wish I can buy Racing Crossworlds during sale hehe

At least I can play during ONT

[sand estuary]

Even though I haven't seen this Kind of Enviroment, if it is Northstar Island but at a differentView, then I guess so

[fresh night]

At least Sonic Racing Crossworlds not so expensive compared That Twin Game made by Malaysia, and this Game still had tons of bugs

[humble wigeon]

SUPERSTARS TRACK, LET'S GO!

Sega, please add Classic Sonic to the game, I'll be super happy if he does make it in!

[fresh night]

If my Laptop does meet system requirement, see you at the ONT

[dense parrot]

this character it's in sonic racing

[humble wigeon]

I know but I want him in Crossworlds. We're getting a Superstars track so I'm hoping Classic Sonic makes it in the game.

[dense parrot]

ok

[fresh night]

This lttle guy need to race

It's a shame he never appear in Team Sonic Racing

[humble wigeon]

PLEASE!

[fresh night]

YES PLEASE!!!

[night jetty]

If they added classic sonic, then they have to add any other classic characters like fang

Pac-Man'a car was in the announcement trailer.. neat.

Dang lol
Though it looks pretty similar to Classic Sonics Car ngl

[astral grail]

Those sons of…. They had us fooled at the beginning

[sand estuary]

Then again, they wanted to keep it as a Surprise as they did

[astral grail]

I wonder if that means they already made the collab decisions before the game got announced

Everything's possible atP

Yea i can notice blue instead of yellow so that would basically be classic sonic

[thin zinc]

Who cares about Zavok tbh…

Barely an interesting character to begin with

He’s like a temp version of bowser

[mental gyro]

You know what they say? The more the merrier.

Even if the deadly six keep coming back for no reason other than more media consumption..

[fresh night]

Funny enough in US/EU ONT until 1st September, while from SEGA SEA until 2nd September
This Source from SEGA SEA Discord Server

[sand estuary]

It's due to the Timezones

[craggy glacier]

this is the only game I think adding classic sonic would make sense

I think it'd be cool if they worked similar to pac-man where the classic versions were skins to classic sonic

just so we could add them all

[night jetty]

Hold on

I noticed sonic characters didnt had a voicelines in the announcement trailer. Later they got it

Hopefully thisll happen the same thing to dlc characters

[frosty birch]

Sonic characters always had voices lines

[night jetty]

In the announcement trailer they didnt like i said

I rewatched it

[frosty birch]

Oh mb

[astral grail]

Huh. https://x.com/salty_sealz/status/1958362736959885671?s=46&t=X2i-YODFBEoPtP4nIvfT0w

Update: SEGA changed it to the one we've been seeing

Something tells me they weren't supposed to reveal that yet 💀💀💀

X · Aug 21, 2025, 2:57 AM

[frosty birch]

Yeah I agree but hopefully then classic sonic tails amy and eggman as skins to

IF sega characters do get tracks as well what tracks would u like to see @astral grail

[frosty birch]

Also strange to think that joker is playable in the open network test. If this is gonna persuade people to buy it why let people play as a voiceless character? That's if he still is voiceless I don't think he is anymore

[night jetty]

Theyre hiding the voicelines so they dont want fans to freak out

Also people should be grateful that their favourite character is included for once

[frosty birch]

Thank you!!! Bro I been telling people this for ages I. YT comment sections no community hates there games as much as the sonic twitter/X.

[frosty birch]

I swear miku was voiced in summer games fest trialer

[frosty birch]

I wonder what friendships are

[night jetty]

I can tell that

[night jetty]

Yea same here

It even was never confirmed that theyll not have voicelines, only the interactions between dlc and sonic

Yet theyre misunderstanding it as theyll not have voicelines

[barren pelican]

I can't wait to hear voice!

That would be cool!

[night jetty]

There might be a hope 🤞

[solar geode]

It’s already shown to just be the jump sounds from unleashed

the whoosh when werehog jumps

[barren pelican]

Oh 💔

I was hoping to hear Werehog's voice. 😭

[dense parrot]

werehog as no voice xd

[mental gyro]

Must have been a small limited time teaser

Or someone did upload it too early

[astral grail]

Not sure, but I’m pretty sure it was either the wrong render or if it was her red alt that didn’t needed to be revealed atm

[mental gyro]

Yea, I'm putting my money on it being an alt.

Perhaps some lore that it's now a defense mechanism whenever someone dear to her is hurt. But again.. this isn't mainline.

Dunno I just wanted to say this

[frosty birch]

I thought it's confirmed to be mainline game

[mental gyro]

At least with a story ig. I hvn't seen confirmation CrossWorlds will have one yet.

[frosty birch]

True

[astral grail]

Found it funny how these 2 areas are Sonic stages

One is very bright cheerful and very cartoony while the other is dark, realistic and very gloomy

[frozen cypress]

I'll be checking out the open network too, curious to see how much improved since i played the closed network

[frosty birch]

Same also can we play as anyone in the base roster I the open network test

X · Aug 21, 2025, 3:19 PM

[sand estuary]

That'd be a Possibility

Though I have a different Bet, who'd the last 2 Chars be for the Season Pass

[frosty birch]

Seems weird that pac man gets announced yesterday and overwatch today from sega.
Futhermore joker is in crossworlds and a track would be quite easy to make just take any escort map and boom track made mabey you Mey need to link 2 tracks for distance and to make it look like a circuit but that should not be that hard right?

Also tracer would make for a great character for a racing game as she is known for her speed and lucio cause he is my favourite character also he could bring the darkness extreme skates

[frosty birch]

What's your bet

[sand estuary]

I don't know if I can say ot tease it here though lol

Even though it's a Guess

[frosty birch]

So do you know more then we do then? Just wondering.

[sand estuary]

Let's just say:
Since Pac-Man and the Ghosts got announced 2 Days ago and there's one Space left
I'd say, that these two Character would be taking the last Spot as if it'd be obvious

[astral grail]

I’d want to say Batman & Superman cause of their DC collab they have going on

[mental gyro]

Oracle Bumpus has spoken

[sand estuary]

That'd be another good Bet

[astral grail]

Watch me get this right again

[solar geode]

This area looks like the very last place in sonic lost world, at least from memory

I’m right

[frosty birch]

So only 06 left not to have a course right?

[sand estuary]

Yup

Even though Soleanna got mentioned by Wave and Rouge stole the Royal Soleanna Diamond from Elise

[frosty birch]

Right

[astral grail]

Good to finally see some Sage footage

[frosty birch]

Going back to a previous conversation looks like the red render for sage was an error as the gameplay it's white and blue

[sand estuary]

Same to Black Knight

[frosty birch]

Interesting question there was two different sage renders with SRCW previously showing her red form is that a skin for sage or an error ?

[sand estuary]

SEGA wasn't suppose to reveal it as it means, that we can have Skins in the Game
https://discordapp.com/channels/370234767985344512/1341776914049667113/1408039978176348161

[frosty birch]

Cool.

[barren fern]

Idea for the last collab racer in sonic racing crossworlds:
A character that is different on different platforms!
On PC: it's Team Fortress 2, just like in Transformed. The characters are the same, tho I think Scout would ride the Extreme Gear
Xbox: xbox live avatar (I don't know what to put here exactly im not an xbox fan)
Nintendo: Mii or Link or Mario
Playstation: i dunno, kratos maybe
The racetrack will have the exact same layout across different versions, just looks different

[barren fern]

How did i not notice that I'm like the biggest lost world fan
Tho i know it's based on act 2 of that location

[solar geode]

Wouldn’t work or be fair with crossplay involved

[barren fern]

At least that section

[barren fern]

Damn

I guess the last collab character will be a regular collab

I really wanted to race as tf2 again...

[grave fiber]

CROSSWORLDS IS IN A MONTH!!!

[grave fiber]

I mean, Rocket League’s a thing, and they have Nintendo skins for those who play on Nintendo

[solar geode]

But they appear as defaults on other platforms

[grave fiber]

Oh.

[signal depot]

We can ateast see kingdom valley in white space (shadow gens) in crossworlds.

[humble wigeon]

Since traveling through time is a thing that this game has, it only makes sense for my favorite character () to be added
(If he's added, he's definitely getting his Cyclone car from the Sonic Drift games )

[humble wigeon]

Anyways

#AddClassicSonicToCrossworlds

[sand estuary]

A Curse? It's more like a Blessing to see him getting confident doing different Poses this Time around as it is.

[frosty birch]

Agreed

JUST A HEADS UP HERE HOW WE ARE GONNA MAKE AND JOIN PARTYS IN THE TEST

[mental gyro]

SRCW trailer on SFSB? Smth tells me this leads to another app using this as bait.

[frosty birch]

I hope we see a mobile game for this gane and please NOT an apple arcade exclusive

[mental gyro]

For some reason I don't think we will. Hvn't gotten a port since TSR in 2019

[frosty birch]

But all raximg games since sonic and sega all stars racing as had a mobile port execpt sonic free "riders"

[mental gyro]

I doubt any of the Riders games got a mobile port

And I meant, Sonic Racing AA may be the sole Racing port from now on

It would getting messy with different versions across 8 and even 9 types of devices.

[frosty birch]

Yeah I guess it could get messy but it would be good market for them especially knowing that the mobile kart racing genre is dry with mario kart tour stopped new content gameloft ruing disney speedstorm with greed leaving a big space for them to take over

[mental gyro]

Ig that's also true..

[frosty birch]

Also I wonder if we get any rumble skins or skins from SFSB just makes for real easy content in-between sega characters and dlc characters releasing

[mental gyro]

I want to say.. most likely SFSB. Almost every other spin-off like Rumble like to steal them while SFSB only ever took around 2 custom alts from pre-existing media.

These 2 come to mind

Doesn't include different forms or extreme gear

[frosty birch]

Yeah I hope the knights show up but that's very unlikely if there is no black knight track or even crossworld

[mental gyro]

Yet we got Secret Rings confirmed.. I wonder if it'll just be in an update down the road or a surprise for launch day.

[frosty birch]

Hopefully some tracks are a surprise and I expect all final fortress tracks return as the last cup is the final fortress cup

[mental gyro]

The amnt of tracks that have been announced is insane..

It's uhh

Oh wait I never kept count

[mental gyro]

One more month.. till I can play SRCW and forget abt everything else :))

[astral grail]

Same brother. Same

[sand estuary]

Where exactly did you found it?

[sand estuary]

Nvm, found it
For a better Overview, here's how the Squad works in the ONT

[frosty birch]

Oh sorry posted that as 2 photo instead of 4 did not want to spam 😅

[frosty birch]

Na I'm playing next weekend

[sand estuary]

Same here on the ONT lol

[frosty birch]

Will we be able to race in teams for the ONT or is it just solos

[sand estuary]

It's either Solo or Team

Both are possible

[frosty birch]

Sorry for the constant question last one is the full base roster gonna be playable

[sand estuary]

All 23 Sonic Characters plus Miku, Ichiban and Joker for the Festival Event

That's where I go with since they'll expand the Roster on the ONT

And it also gives us the Opportunity to use Extreme Gears early

[frosty birch]

Cool I'm assuming ur gonna main silver right haha

[sand estuary]

Not only him though

[frosty birch]

Fairs I am gonna play silver espio and vector mostly I think but I would like to be surpised

[mental gyro]

I will participate in this too.

Guess who my main will be

[frosty birch]

Doctors mine
Clockwork pyramid
Hidden volcano (crossworld)
Ice mountain

Transformed:
Race of ages
Graffiti city
Samba studios
Graveyard GIG
Alder lier golden axe stage (crossworld)

All stars racing
Jump parade (crossworld)
Whale lagoon (crossworld)
Sewer scapes( crossworld)
Sandy drifts
Shybidia downtown (crossworld)

Silver in A
(And joker mostly be in S)

[frosty birch]

I wonder what silvers stats will be and I hope he is GOOD for ONCE

[night jetty]

Would put tmnt on highest if they were revealed 😭

Also according to team sonic racing, my top character would prob be sonic in crossworlds

So what about yall? What would be your top character?

[sand estuary]

Here's mine

[night jetty]

I meant what would be your most used character than your mains or smth

[frosty birch]

@sand estuary are the stats for the characters in the ONT going to br the same in the full release of the game?

[sand estuary]

Well, mine should be obvious then

[sand estuary]

It's unknown ofc

Unless going specific, the Stats may change after the ONT to the released Game, you never know

[frosty birch]

Ok just wanted to check and are sega characters having stages to or just premium dlc

[sand estuary]

Also unknown

Unless going specific again, as of right now, only DLC Characters gets their own respective Tracks

[frosty birch]

Oh sorry don't mean to seen to trying to get unknown info if that's what you are thinking if not then I'm just yapping please don't take offence just really excited

[sand estuary]

Well, you were specific for asking Questions like this

[frosty birch]

So do you not want me to ask these specific questions anymore beacuse I can if u want me to

[sand estuary]

Just see it for yourself once we do the ONT and the Game comes officialy out

Very cool!

[frosty birch]

agreed

[thin zinc]

Yh we could be having skins. To crossworlds like Mario kart world

The pac-man ghost are selected as skins and possibly for Sage too. So maybe we could have skins like sonic or shadow and others for ex riders gear

[frosty birch]

6 days till ONT.

[silver hatch]

You think Super Sonic will be unlockable in the Open Network Test?

[dense parrot]

Very very very low chance I precised it’s only what I believe

[silver hatch]

Yeah, they might hold onto that for release. We know he'll be unlocked through the Grand Prix Mode though.

[astral grail]

I doubt that. If anything he’ll probably be in the full game

[frosty birch]

Is the full base roster available in the ONT

Aside from Werehog and the Prime Characters, yea
it stands, that the ONT will have the expanded Roster

[sand estuary]

When collecting the 7 Chaos Emeralds by beating 7 Rivals

[astral grail]

So the full base roster will be playable and as for tracks, I’m betting that the 3 we saw in the previous trailer will be in the ONT

[frosty birch]

I'm guessing all tracks shown as well as crossworlds

[plain atlas]

I just realized that this will become real because of crossworlds

[sand estuary]

Whadda know

Besides, we don't need to question how he's racing on Day Time lol

[plain atlas]

Same can be said for dash and speed battle

[sand estuary]

True, but these two aren't canon anyway

[silver hatch]

How fun. That'll be the only day I have completely free to play the ONT.

[sand estuary]

Like with Werehog, Joker doesn't have his Voice (yet)

[frosty birch]

What do you mean "yet"

Chrono you can't leave me speculating like that

[sand estuary]

Well, that's the neat Part

Ofc not

[frosty birch]

Awww dam it

This is way I can't be left speculating

[sand estuary]

Don't jump the Gun out like that
And I wanted to say something about it

[frosty birch]

Aww sorry my bad

[astral grail]

I personally don’t mind if the 3rd party characters speak or not. If they do then rock on! If not then oh well I won’t be too upset about it

[sand estuary]

While I still hope to hear their actual Voice, even though Werehog got the RIP, I heard, that apparently some Chars like Ichiban, Joker as well as Spongebob and Patrick are getting their Voices, though not right away on the Global Release, but a bit later
If the Contract had been written, that is

[night jetty]

Wait is it confirmed that werehog is not gonna get the voiceline???

[sand estuary]

#1341776914049667113 message

[sand estuary]

And don't get me wrong, it's just a Guess

[night jetty]

I mean it doesnt confirm this it's just that sega havent got enough money to pay roger to voice werehog

[sand estuary]

Either that or so, it doesn't seem like Werehog is getting it

Unless there's a Surprise soon

And again, just a Guess

[sand estuary]

I wouldn't really mind it too, but you do know how upset the Fans are going to be if there isn't Voice for the SEGA Characters, Werehog and DLC

As for the Prime Characters, it's unknown to this Day

[solar geode]

And this is what I’m referring too

His voice is those whoosh sounds

[astral grail]

Still excited for being in the game

Now we got & all in one game again

“Extreme Gear ” when

lol kidding of course

[sand estuary]

They could give him a Skin, now that we know that we can change the Attire of the Ghosts and Sage lol

[astral grail]

That would be cool cause if they did give us the options to make Sonic & others wear their Riders attire, that’s what I’ll be sticking to all the way even in their cars

Speaking of Sonic, looks like he remembered the Time from Secret Rings with Shahra mentioned

[thin zinc]

I really hope that includes joker, ichiban and Hatsune Miku

If there’s no voices for those characters I would be very disappointed ☹️

[frosty birch]

Sorry mate I was having a conversation with chrono and jumped the gun my bad I'm gonna delete that comment to stop this from happening again

That’s Alr.. but either way I reallly want them to have voices soo bad

Cmon

We can be at least grateful

[frosty birch]

Oh I am very grateful for the characters as I have lots if childhood memories playing the original all stars games with my brother that gap jump at the start of Whale lagoon getting my Gold licence in sonic and sega all stars racing even battle mode to. I can't wait to play the game and see what other sega characters get added I'm hopeing for amigo but please just use his train from transformed and beat from JSR especially.

I did not aim for my comments to be ungrateful but I also understand that is hard to understand that in a text and not in person

[dense parrot]

it's one mode team?

it's noticed in the descr nice this

[flat oxide]

Every time we get news about this game it’s amazing (apart from when we found out the prices)

[dense parrot]

me i have my 4 main for the mode festival

[astral grail]

Seems like they’ve updated the Online question

It’s pretty stupid but it doesn’t bother me. Not like I give a hoot about playing online anyway lol

[silver hatch]

Why's Nintendo like this? 😭
They make good games, but pretty bad business decisions.

[craggy glacier]

Even if I won't play most of these guys, it's super neat to see this many characters in the game

really excited for this game, it's kinda crazy

not usually this excited for sonic games, but this is neat

[silver hatch]

An' this is a spin off! I wonder what the next mainline will be like.

[mental gyro]

Every character is out for blood, except for Amy who just throws petty insults..

Sorry I just don't feel anything from her dialogue unlike the others

[dense parrot]

Idk for

[dense parrot]

Idk how is the dialogue of shadow

[mental gyro]

Shadow sounds challenging and epic

[dense parrot]

Nice

[mental gyro]

I did hear some of Boom Shadow in the first rival interaction he has with Sonic and I've made peace with that.
Fearless has really helped his character shine!

And gain multiple alts in SFSB/Dash

[dense parrot]

Yes personally I look the fan of shadow gained more big in 2024 that was good for me

[barren pelican]

This is probably how I'm going to be playing Crossworlds. The list could change. Maybe Cream might end up higher.

[dense parrot]

The alt of sfsb I don’t wanted speak of him bc 2 or 3 shadow fan is agree with me

[mental gyro]

Fair that's fair

I just hope the writers (hoping it's not just Ian Flynn) get their head straight and give Amy personality again.
Other than that I hope Silver and Blaze's interactions go well

[dense parrot]

Beautiful list

[barren pelican]

Lmao
I just realized got the Mike Wazowski treatment on my tier list 😭

[barren pelican]

Thank you

[dense parrot]

This it’s the mine the mine is not really surprised

[mental gyro]

Bc the logo is in his face?

[barren pelican]

Yep 😭

[mental gyro]

How dare u..

[barren pelican]

Nice list! Shadow on top, as always.

[barren pelican]

I wasn't trying 😭

[dense parrot]

Yes and thk

[mental gyro]

Yay. They didn't forget abt Xbox Live this time

Interesting how Switch Online is required though

[barren pelican]

Wait, it is!?

[mental gyro]

For the online features apparently. Unless they screwed the FAQs again

[barren pelican]

Dang, my brother won't be happy. He wanted to play together with me when it started, but he doesn't have online.

[barren pelican]

I figured it would just be free since free games on Nintendo don't need Online subscription.

[mental gyro]

U... cld gaslight him into thinking u're gonna play as a bot in offline

[barren pelican]

He's not going to believe that lmao

[mental gyro]

Oh well. It was worth a shot tellin' ya

[barren pelican]

Maybe if I get that job, I could be nice and buy him a membership for the online test. That's if I get a phone call back before then. || Of course he'd have to pay me back later ||

[dense parrot]

It’s true you can download the demo of sonic racing crossworld tommorow

[barren pelican]

Is it tomorrow? I thought it was the 29th.

[mental gyro]

This may be farfetched, but ig it's to reduce the playerbase for Mario Kart World and Kirby Air Riders.. which is what I'd say if they weren't Switch 2 exclusives (if u only hv Switch 1)
So add Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in there too just in case

[dense parrot]

You can download the demo but you can’t play him before the 29

[mental gyro]

Yea that

[barren pelican]

Ah, I see

[barren pelican]

I think it could be because it's technically the full game of Crossworlds. That could be the reason they locked the Online feature. If Sega called it a Demo, then maybe it wouldn't need the Online.

Could also be that it's not a Nintendo IP.

[mental gyro]

So.. Nintendo charges extra to play demos online? Something tells me it's directed at Sega on purpose. Not sure if it's for banter or competition but it rlly hurts Switch players who want to take part in this. Hurts even more knowing Xbox/PlayStation don't need online services

[mental gyro]

That's sorta where my head's headed at

[barren pelican]

This might be wrong actually, cause Asphalt Legends 9 is free and you can play online without a subscription. There are several more too. My first idea might be the correct one.

[mental gyro]

Hmm

Legends is an interesting case. Although they might be trading cash behind the scenes.

But again if that were the case there wld be smth exclusive to the console.. which tbf I don't know. I only know other games got exclusive content on those consoles while being available elsewhere

[barren pelican]

There's also Brawlhalla, Ninjala, WarFrame, DC universe Online, and Fortnite. All free games that don't need the subscription. All free games on Nintendo Eshop don't need Online whether Nintendo or not. So maybe it is cause it's the full game of Crossworlds. They didn't want to flip the "Needs Online" switch for the game when it releases and chose to do it now before they forget.

[mental gyro]

Ok fair free to play does make sense.
Also I know this sounds more like a conspiracy, but it wldn't surprise me if it's true.

[barren pelican]

If it was true, I would expect some exclusivity item or decorations like you mentioned.

[mental gyro]

Online switch.. Switch. Checks out. I don't know how it requires more work. I guess there isn't any other explanation.

[dense parrot]

yes I have all Time hope for in crossworld

[barren pelican]

Probably to avoid potential employee incompetence. Someone might forget to do their job and leave Crossworlds to not require the membership even after release. And Nintendo does have several other games to worry about rather than having to remember something about a game that isn't theirs.

[barren pelican]

That would be cool to have ! Have everyone in a Super Form and make it a new mode too.

I hope the Movie Characters get added too.

[dense parrot]

Xd no for me gained in crossworld it’s certainly the think of I don’t believe of it’s possible yes for me he has more chance of look in sfsb than look in crossworld

[barren pelican]

Extreme Gear

It could be possible

[dense parrot]

Same in the last collab

[mental gyro]

If that's true, they're either stricter or smth like that has happened before. And how prone the Switch is to leaks.
Or u're just right about Nintendo caring only abt their other games atm. Maybe both.

[barren pelican]

Could definitely be both.

[dense parrot]

If sega and paramount created a big serie or same a big movie ride with rider and look movie it’s possible

[barren pelican]

I remember back when Pokémon Sun and Moon had a Demo, the full game ended up being leaked, so it could be leak prevention.

[mental gyro]

Fair. It's alrdy happening with removing 3 day early access

[mental gyro]

If the game has live functionality supported till 2027 and beyond for and

As well as the Babylon Rogues

I want to say this is true considering what they did with the movie DLC in Shadow Gens

[dense parrot]

Yes the game died as very died this year and I believe of he will continued as gained alive but yes the game as good down principally this years

[barren pelican]

Movie Babylon Rogues aren't happening for a long time, but the Movie Characters we have now getting Extreme Gear variants could happen if Paramount allows them to be in Crossworlds. Then they would have events in Speed Battle like Series Knuckles though and never come back. 🥀

[dense parrot]

Yes if it’s true if that will happen I will passed at the bank for rider

[dense parrot]

Myself I saying me who will gained the character for promoted crossworld in sfsb

[barren pelican]

[dense parrot]

No I don’t believe

[mental gyro]

Extreme Gear Soup Sonic

[dense parrot]

is for the promoted of the race around the world idk what but for crossworld he need another event

[mental gyro]

Technically we got him bc of CrossWorlds this year and the whole campaign

[barren pelican]

This makes me believe.

[mental gyro]

That's a CrossWorld in the first ss i think.

[dense parrot]

Exactly what I say it’s only for the campaign no for the game

[barren pelican]

Racing around the world is promotion for Crossworlds, so I think Extreme Gear Super Sonic was the character promoting Crossworlds.

[barren pelican]

I think it's just Green Hill, but it could be the Northstar Islands.

[barren pelican]

Maybe a recap of the Extreme Gears or a new Jet variant? Or Sage?

[mental gyro]

Oh right.. that definitely is Green Hill.

[dense parrot]

Aaaaaah no I know now he will no gained one event for crossworld remember in 2024 promoted the fearless year of shadow he has no gained one event shadow generation

[barren pelican]

Oh yeah. Almost forgot about the Shadow events.

[mental gyro]

Ok that's true.. doesn't necessarily rule this year out though.

[dense parrot]

All is possible but back 1 month after of he is out let’s me say he has very low chance

[mental gyro]

Ok we'll just hv to wait and see

[dense parrot]

Yes

Wait I know the answer the event of crossworld it’s one sinister showdown event bc crossworld gained out the 25 September and my birthday it’s the 22 September it’s logic now

For anyone on Switch 2, here is proof that you can play the open network test. Just search for it in the EShop.

[dense parrot]

You it’s as 2 pm me it’s as 6 am

[mental gyro]

9pm PST translates to 12am here... and the recent video says the ONT starts at 12:01am so does that technically mean it starts at 9:01pm PST??

I know it's a one minute difference

[dense parrot]

Xd

[astral grail]

Let me in….

LET ME INNNNNNNN

[barren pelican]

Yeah, for PST it would be 9:01 P.M. I have to wait for 12 A.M. since I'm EST.

You're lucky. You get to wake up in the morning and play, but I have to sleep through the start of the test since it starts at midnight.

Last time I stayed up like that was when Pokémon Unite released at 3 am.

Cause I wanted to secure my name, even though I later changed it.

[mental gyro]

Huh lolll

[barren pelican]

Yeah, I believe 2 people couldn't have the same name. I used my real name originally until later changing it to ShurikenFrog

[astral grail]

I’m already seeing people “hacking” (Don’t know if that’s the right word lol) into their PCs to play the ONT early

Dang, none of the Frontiers or Shadow Generations tracks are there.
But this is definitely going to be a lot of fun!

The last 2 times Sonic games on console had different applications affect each other were Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles (unlocks Sonic 3 & Knuckles)
Then Sonic 4 Episode 1 and 2 (Unlocks episode Metal)

Nice to see them doing something similar again

Even if it is just for a decal and sticker

Metal harbor it’s of sa2 it’s good

Sand road anda apotos is egually interesting same for holoska and dragon road

[mental gyro]

Apotos is number 1 in music for me, Digital Circuit is 2nd

Map wise I'm going for Starlight Carnival or Holoska

Plz don't hunt me down for liking EDM. Oh wait wrong app lol

[astral grail]

Shame it doesn’t have Kronos Island but I’m down either way

[dense parrot]

Yes but digital circuit is not in the ont and it’s one map of I passed multi time with

[mental gyro]

They let the final version gobble up Kronos

[mental gyro]

In that case I'm going Mystic Jungle

[dense parrot]

Shame it doesn’t have the map of I passed egually multi hours of it’s egually the map favorite of black doom

[mental gyro]

Wait how many Courses and CrossWorlds in total have been confirmed for the final game?

[astral grail]

Don’t know. So far there’s 22 courses, and 15 CrossWorlds

And that’s for base game

[mental gyro]

Collabs I'm assuming wld bring it up to 28 (+6). I doubt those will be CrossWorlda

Gotcha that is all for now

[astral grail]

No all of the DLC courses are all main courses and not CrossWorlds

[mental gyro]

Alr good.

[harsh snow]

Heads up, fellas, looks like more leaks are gonna be going around because of an exploit regarding the Steam version's open test.

So watch out.

[craggy glacier]

Still REALLY need to know if the guest characters will get voices down the line

If it's only miku, It's just going to be a major letdown

I understand like specfic interactions are way harder, but you can't even reuse some lines?

[astral grail]

Oh yeah the OST from the ONT got leaked too. Including the full version of Sonic Racing

[harsh snow]

Concerns about audio quality, because they make me wonder if the game's gonna sound that way at launch.

[mental gyro]

Leakers.. it's always leakers. They just want to see the world burn and tarnished.

[astral grail]

Those are the types of guys I hate the most tbh

[mental gyro]

sigh

[harsh snow]

I can't with that song.

Genuinely, the lyrics are just not good, in my opinion. Most are literally just stating things you can do in the game.

Which is way too on the nose, for me.

[astral grail]

I know buddy. I know

[distant mason]

Please do not share assets that have been leaked/datamined/ripped from any SEGA games.

[tribal plinth]

sorry

[craggy glacier]

Apparently the game is super easy to just go through early, it's like breaking into a home that has its door wide open

And from what I've seen, nothing really crucial has been found from this

The only thing I've seen is gameplay ( already given since we can play in like what, 2 days )

and some music, which again, already gonna hear

[final fjord]

Hm so which camera type are you guys going to use?

[flat oxide]

Guys among us is coming to Sonic Racing Crossworlds I’m calling it now

The victory theme will be the among us theme tune

[dense parrot]

he has 1 place left in the collab part it's totally possible the last collab

[frosty birch]

Is the pac man maze part of the course or a crossworld

[astral grail]

It’s part of the Pac-Village course

[barren pelican]

Got the ad for Crossworlds that shows the number of courses and everything else. These numbers are for the base game and don't include DLC.

[ornate marsh]

Takashi Iizuka talked about why in Crossworlds the post-launch characters don't have voices, the reason being because they decided not to do it in order to haven't to create more interactions than they already have and avoid problems with third parties. When I heard this I was very disappointed and I hope that once the game is released they can give them voices in an update, since they can't leave more than half of the roster mute

[mental gyro]

Or this will be like Injustice and it'll result in a lawsuit with WB

They're not the only ones to do this (I think) so plz don't sue me.
-# ||in other words I'm jk.||

[night jetty]

I mean

They shouldve gave them voices and avoid doing the interactions

Simple

[ornate marsh]

What I would do is not give them any opponent dialogue directly, just taunt, victory, selection, and acrobatic dialogue. That's enough, plus Hatsune Miku is the only exception to this (voicing her was mandatory)

[ornate marsh]

Minecraft characters: Mute (they normally are, so no problem)
Bonus characters: Mute
Joker from Persona: Mute
Ichiban from Yakuza: Mute
SpongeBob and Patrick: Mute
Pac-Man and the Ghosts: Mute
Upcoming unrevealed post-launch characters: highly likely to be mute as well

Only 24 of the 50+ characters have voices

Somehow you have to give them voices, because if you don't give them voices the characters will feel empty

Multiversus already did something similar: many characters arrived without voices, and over time, they added them. It would be better once the game was released, since they would have more time. Now, if they added the voices as paid DLC, it would be a huge rip-off

In an new interview with Game Magazine UCG, Takashi Iizuka, the head of Sonic Team, confirmed there's currently no plans for any #SonicMovie content in #SonicRacingCrossWorlds, since no Sonic movie is being released this year

Thanks to @sonicoll for finding this

[dense parrot]

rip

[astral grail]

Well guess that means that we can kiss & ‘s chances goodbye

[dense parrot]

badly yes

and 0 news for and skin in the game

[sand estuary]

Shadow had honestly got enough from last Year on
Just give other Chars a Chance like this

[dense parrot]

what you want give a chance for? i don't follow this time

[sand estuary]

If I could choose the next Year of the Char, then that should be him

Then again, Shadow got what he want, so he should take a Break

[dense parrot]

if you want that it's not a problem for me for now

[sand estuary]

Pretty much

[night jetty]

Oh well

Lets hope theyll add movie characters in crossworlds to coincide with sonic 4 movie

They did sonic movie crossover in rumble in this year tho

[astral grail]

I think the game will be done by the time that happens

[night jetty]

Aw man

Just let crossworlds join with dash and forces mobile

[flat oxide]

I 100% agree with this since Silver has always been my favourite character

And his victory animation has Dreams of An Absolution in the background

[sand estuary]

Please don't be rude like that

[dense parrot]

oooooh sorry

🎃

[harsh snow]

Hang Castle!!!

[astral grail]

Boo 🎃

[onyx parcel]

I thought it was Pumpkin Hill at first lol

[night jetty]

Too spooky levels in one game

[mental gyro]

Yea I can see how that's concerning.. hopefully it'll come in updates like u said. Otherwise what's the point other than playing as more characters that feel like reskins?

[flat oxide]

I never play any crossover characters anyway

I’m playing the game for Sonic, not SpongeBob or Pac-Man

[dense parrot]

same

[ornate marsh]

I'd play them for the memes, but what takes away a lot of points is the same thing that happens with the other crossover characters

[humble wigeon]

My mains are definitely Sonic and SpongeBob
(Sonic will be replaced with Classic Sonic if he's added)

[thin zinc]

Soon… 🔜

[mental gyro]

We got a ss channel for this lol
Not that it's a big deal rn, for spoilers it will be
