Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds For Switch 2 Will Have Full Game On The Card
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, the latest arcade racer from Sega, releases in just over two months on consoles and PC. Along with familiar faces from Sonic the Hedgehog, the largest roster in series history will feature characters from Persona, Like A Dragon, Minecraft, and other popular franchises. CrossWorlds will also have cross-platform online multiplayer for PS5, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Switch when it races into stores September 25. Preorders are live now for physical and digital editions, and you can get exclusive bonuses and even discounts by ordering early.
It's worth noting that Sega is developing a dedicated version for Switch 2, but it won't be available until the holiday season in digital format. A true physical edition for Switch 2--the full game on a 64GB game card--will arrive in early 2026. If you want to play at launch, you can grab the Nintendo Switch edition for $60 and then pay $10 to upgrade when the Switch 2 version launches.

CrossWorlds is one of several upcoming games with an Amazon-exclusive edition.

This edition was announced shortly after Amazon unveiled its exclusive edition of Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, which also includes a poster and launches a few days after CrossWorlds.
All preorders, including the Amazon-exclusive edition, come with the Sonic Werehog DLC pack containing the following in-game items:
