It’s the first type they have been playable since Sonic Adventure 2, and personally I wanted them to show up as playable as well. Instead, we chose characters that fit the image of those types.”īy the way, what is Iizuka-san’s favorite character? Furthermore, while characters are split into Speed, Technique, and Power characters, character popularity doesn’t necessarily follow that same order. We went through a lot of debate before making things this way. For example, Vector is originally a Team Chaotix member, but this time he’s teaming up with Silver and Blaze.

The mood of the group slowly gets worse, and people stop having fun. “Actually, my son plays racing games with his friends, but if there is even one kid who’s better than the others, they’ll end up winning all the time. Despite it being popular in shooters and action games, there are surprisingly few titles in the racing genre where can share the joy of working together.” Iizuka: “This game uses rules where the overall placement of members decides the winners, a ruleset that’s not used much in racing games. We kept testing the minimum network connection tests, which led to more debugging, and it took longer than we thought.” Because people will not be playing it within the same network environments, with at most 12 players in one race this time, adjusting it was quite a large task. Iizuka: “The biggest reason for the wait was because it took time to overcome problems with online races. The original release date was Winter 2018, but it ended up releasing in May 2019. Takashi Iizuka, producer: “Right, because the game this time is a new project made to expand on the Sonic brand.” Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing had many popular Sega characters appear, but this time it’s just Sonic characters.
Team Sonic Racing launches just a few days later, and Sonic series producer Takashi Iizuka stepped up to have an interview about inspirations for the game, as well as how they chose the character roster this time.
