Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is a brilliant game for those who love the circuit track mindset, but want a little pizzazz thrown in there. It sticks to what worked in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed but adds to it and makes an experience that sits directly beside that game, which is often regarded as the best in the series. The races are chaotic, and the variability of the outcomes is wide. Add to that the charm and celebration of the past 20 years of Sonic and friends, and you have a highly enjoyable title that wrestles away the title of best racing game of 2025.
