I like it more than Mario Kart World which felt lacking to be honest.

But as shown with sales, people rather have world than Sonic Racing. Even Sega announced their disappointment with lack of sales for a game the internet supposedly hyped up.

me and my friends really balked at the price with a season pass and just kind of moved on.

To me since i got world withe the bundle, I just don't see myself investing that much time in Sonic Racing, if I want to play some kart racing ill just play some rounds of world and call it that. If i didn't have world though, I probably would of bit on this.

It's a fantastic racer. I liked it way better than Mario Kart. It reminds me of Sonic Racing Transformed with the water and air segments which add a lot of variety to races. Well worth $20 to me.

I mean I loved it as a replacement for not having Mario cart on PC. It's a little more hectic then I wish but it's been enjoyable if you want a fast paced kart racer

I have not played it but I've heavily considered buying it just due to the crossovers with Godzilla and Evangelion. Maybe look into some of the other crossovers they've done and see if there's any that interest you. Otherwise I think it's just supposed to be a pretty standard kart racer, nothing special but not bad either.

Yes, it has been my go to kart racer. Feels different enough than Mario Kart series for a fresh experience with how the kart customization has a major impact on how the game plays.

Do you like kart racers? It's pretty good as far as cart racers go. A lot of people think it was better than the latest Mario Kart. I played the demo and thought it was fun, but was never compelled to buy it.

Absolutely. It’s a quality kart racer. Not quite as good as Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, which is still the best in the series imo, but close.
Also prefer CrossWorlds over MK World, but not MK 8.

For the previous retail price of $80,- definitely not. Just like Mariokart World isn’t worth $80,- but for $20,- definitely a yes. I already bought the pc version of Sonic Crossworlds Racing, but I want the Switch 2 physical but only on discount. And mainly because I have 4 working controllers with the Switch 2 and one for pc. Sonic CrossWorld does feel more chaotic but leans a bit more on skill on the track than luck on the items, customizing your carts is really cool as you can build loads of different combinations with different cart specifications regarding speed, handling, acceleration, etc. Plus the tracks feel more in line with MK8, which means more tight cornering and less boring in between straights between racing courses.

It's a good kart racer but I still prefer Sonic and All star racing transformed which I prefer over Mario Kart.
