At last, Sega has confirmed<\/a> that Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition<\/a> launches on 4th December 2025 for $69.99, right in time for the holidays (via Gematsu<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Note that a physical release, where the game is fully on the cart, will be following in early 2026.<\/p>\n

Those of you who have already bought the game on Switch 1, you’ll be able to purchase an upgrade pack for $10 (or your regional equivalent) \u2014 plus if you grab that pack before 10th December, you’ll get a 50% discount. $5 it is, then.<\/p>\n

Those of you who’ll be grabbing the game on Switch 2 before 17th December will also get the Werehog Pack DLC as a free bonus.<\/p>\n

Originally launching on the Switch back in September, Sonic Racing CrossWorld has already sold over 1 million units and has been receiving frequent guest character updates. Just today, Like A Dragon’s own Ichiban Kasuga has joined the roster<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our review of the Switch 1 version<\/a>, penned by our very own Mitch Vogel, was full of praise for the karting and racing, but said the performance on the older console was “disappointing”. The Switch 2 version should fix those issues, then…<\/p>\n

And hey, someone here at Nintendo Life<\/a> think it’s better than Mario Kart World<\/a>. Kirby<\/a>, watch out, the hedgehog is back.<\/p>\n

Will you be karting up in December with Sonic Racing CrossWorlds on Switch 2? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
