Sonic Racing: Crossworlds and Mario Kart World set the stage for a crossover for ages
Why now the perfect time for Mario and Sonic is to compete together
Just as fans have fantasized about Sonic connection Super Smash Bros. And Mario helping Blue Hedgehog Trample Dr. Eggman and Bowser for several years, the idea that the two are joining the guard list for their respective racing games has been moved equally. Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed Theoretized to include Mario as a Wii U -exclusive character through an agreement between Nintendo and Sega at that time, for example. Mario Kart 8Amiibo costumes came close to Sonic's Smash Bros. Amiibo has its own designated MII costume in the game.
Despite how close Sonic and Mario have come to the competition together, it has not yet been fully realized. At least Sonic has come quite close to being invited to Mario Kart. That is why, by all Mario and Sonic's coincide release windows, Mario Kart WorldS and Sonic Racing: Crossworlds“May be the most important thing. Both games have a convenient release window between each other, and it leaves room for them to have to advertise each other. If the two games cooperate The outside world and add Sonic to Mario Kart WorldRoster as the same marketing, which can cause a fairly large movement. Of course, each sales increase would be better known on Nintendo's side of the market, as both riders would probably be switch exclusive, but Sega could still see some The outside world Sales benefits as a result.
What would a Mario Kart World/Sonic Racing Crossworlds Collab mean?
It asks the question of what this cooperation can include. Sonic Racing: Crossworlds have made their offers for extra racers clear in recent days while Mario Kart World Have not said if there will be any updates after launch yet. For Mario Kart WorldIt is easy to imagine Sonic, which is shown with special food -based suits such as the majority of the guard list. Sonic Racing: Crossworlds have room to be a little more generous to Mario, as The outside world'DLC and free update racers are said to come with cars, a track and maybe even special emotions to use in online games. It all depends on what Nintendo and Sega would be happy with in their negotiations, and that is where the problem lies.
Sonic Team and Sega have taken excavations on Mario Kart World More or less since it was revealed as part of Switch 2 directly. The Head of the Sonic Team used the stage at Summer Game Fest to specifically mention that Sonic Racing: Crossworlds Allows competitions with other players on several platforms, unlike Switch 2 Exclusive Kart Racer. It is difficult to imagine that these comments are made with a potential transition in the works. Although Mario and Sonic may have come close to seeing who leaves the other in their pond on the track, it may not be during this era of racing no matter how perfect it may seem.
