McLaren Racing Joins Forces With Sonic the Hedgehog for Official SEGA Partnership


Two brands known for going fast, McLaren Racing and SEGA, announced a new multi-year partnership with Sonic the Hedgehog, making SEGA their official gaming partner.





Two icons known for going fast, Sonic the Hedgehog and McLaren Racing, have made it official today. SEGA has announced a multi-year partnership with the racing brand, making SEGA the gaming partner of the supercar racing brand. The partnership brings both brands’ desires of speed, bold design and a drive to inspire the next generation on a global scale. This isn’t the first time McLaren and Sonic the Hedgehog have met. Back at the 1993 European Grand Prix — known then as the Sonic Grand Prix — the McLaren F1 Team driver, Ayrton Senna, was awarded a Sonic the Hedgehog trophy on the podium.

I was able to go hands-on with the game for an hour at Summer Game Fest, and can confidently say that if you are looking for a new competitive game to play with friends or at parties, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds will fit the bill.





The world of Sonic is decades old, so there is absolutely a ton of content to pull from in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. There will be 23 starting racers, 45 original vehicles, 70 tools to upgrade or change them, 24 tracks and 15 crossworlds, but more on that later. Obviously, I played as Sonic to start, but I also played as Cream and Cheese because nothing could possibly be cuter.








I will admit, I am not a die-hard Sonic player, so many of the characters are unknown to me, but with 23 to start, and more to come... Read more
