Physical editions of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, intended for release on September 25, 2025, have prematurely revealed additional content for the game. These unexpected disclosures include new characters slated for the Season Pass and downloadable content offerings.
Reports from fan communities indicate that Capcom's beloved character, Mega Man, will be featured in the game's Season Pass. This inclusion is positioned as the ultimate paid DLC collaboration, generating considerable excitement among fans of both franchises.
The information regarding Mega Man's involvement has been corroborated by several independent leaks, including exclusive video footage provided to The Sonic Stadium by an anonymous contributor. This verification stemmed from an insert found within the leaked physical copies, which promoted the game's pre-order details and highlighted all six Season Pass franchises, including Mega Man.
Further revelations from the game's box art confirm the presence of NiGHTS, a classic Sega character, within the racing title. NiGHTS will appear alongside representatives from the popular Persona series and Yakuza: Like A Dragon, broadening the diverse cast of characters available to players. Official announcements regarding future collaborations and complimentary guest characters are expected from Sega.
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is scheduled for its initial release on Nintendo Switch on September 25, 2025. A version optimized for the Nintendo Switch 2 is planned for a later date, and existing Switch owners will have the option to purchase a paid upgrade to access enhanced features.
