Hatsune Miku from the Project DIVA games, Pac-Man, Ichiban from Yakuza/Like a Dragon and Joker from Persona 5 are the crossover characters so far that appeal to me.


There're free characters that are coming out. Hatsune Miku has come out, next it's gonna be Joker. Seems they're still gonna privilege Sonic characters for next year though.

Then there're the paid season pass characters, which are from other IPs like Spongebob, Mega Man, or TMNT. The season pass also has the tracks associated with said IPs.

But the real question is, is it true that this game has a better soundtrack than Mario Kart World? Because the soundtrack in MKW is the one aspect of it I've seen get praised significantly, unlike everything else.

I'd disagree and say MKW's is better, but then again, I try to remember the soundtrack of MKW after 3 months of not playing it, and nothing really comes to my mind. It didn't stick.

SRC though I had this initial aversion at the start that faded with a few hours, I think it's good overall and pairs with the action pretty well, it's just probably not something you'd listen outside of its context.

Whoa! A Mega Man race track? Or a TMNT race track? That would be pretty swell. I may have to actually get it.

I just played through the demo, and I think I'm done playing this game. It definitely is harder than Mario Kart, which I'm fine with on principle, but it feels harder in an unfair way. It's the same reason I didn't like Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled. I like being challenged. I don't like feeling like the game itself is going out of its way to stop me from winning.
