Sonic and the All-Stars cast line up on the starting grid once again to battle for supremacy in the ultimate race. There’s no story here but the game is all about racing and using the characters from various Sega franchises to defeat each other. Sega released a new trailer which shows the World Tour mode, taking on different Challenges, including a few interesting boss battles, and being able to play against up to 10 players online. It looks to be good ol’ fashioned racing at it’s best – something which should feel even more fun when played online. Here are power-ups, secret routes, and a myriad of expansive tracks and obstacles throughout the game. The weapons are also quite ingenious with explosive hot rod engines, freezing snowballs and swarms of wasps that appear at the front of the pack. You have the ability to transform the vehicles into car, boat and plane modes. GameplayĪs the game’s name suggets it’s a mascot-based kart racer and you can choose any character from various Sega franchises. OutRun Bay is the featured track, featuring all of the standard Sonic Transformed race modes as well as challenges and time trials specific to OutRun Bay, inspired by Sega’s classic arcade game OutRun. The Bonus Edition boasts a brand new track and character, as well as a handful of various collectibles, available whilst pre-order supplies last.

Sega has also announced a Bonus Edition for the upcoming Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed title. Seven characters were chosen Ryo Hazuki, Hatsune Miku, Segata Sanshiro, Vectorman, ToeJam & Earl, Bayonetta, and Ristar, and only one has been approved so far. I can’t promise anything will happen as a result, but since you’re starting it…” Without any policing from the SUMO or SEGA crew, if you can all agree on three characters by the 1st of December and prove there is sufficient interest of at least 1000 unique people *per* character, I will present the result to SEGA. On November 14 Sumo Digital posted on the official forums for a DLC challenge which was met successfully.

The online mode is said to be competent as well with racing capability up to 10 players online, or you can also challenge your friends in four player split screen. It also has over 25 tracks and arenas which challenge you on land, water and air.

The game features fully transformable vehicles which change from car to plane to boat mid race, and also over 20 legendary All-Stars each with their own transformable vehicle. The 3DS version is built from the ground up. The PS3 and Vita version are said to run on the same engine and maintain a solid 30 fps framerate, and the engine is codenamed Sumo.
