Sega finally officially announced the Sega All-Stars Racing sequel.
Only it's dropping the Sega in the title and will now be titled Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed!
Let's check it out~
First of all, like the more recent Mario Karts (the one on the Gamecube) or some Donkey Kong racing games, it's adding some gimmicks to the gameplay.
I'm not sure how I actually feel about it. I mean, the classic kart formula was perfect to me. They didn't need to add stuff like that... Oh well.
Like the "transformed" part implies, the vehicles will be able to transform depending on the circuit's environment. That is, the "cars" will now transform into planes or boats according to where the road will lead you.
Well executed, it might work enough. But one or two gameplay problems and it might give the game sluggish controls...
The game is supposedly coming out this year on almost all platforms, PS3, 360, PC, Vita, 3DS,etc...
Sumo Digital is still on this one.
This new title will offer 16 brand new races, from Sonic levels to Panzer Dragoon and even Shibuya (Jet Set Radio!).
New characters will count at least Vyse from Skies of Arcadia and Gilius Thunderhead from Golden Axe!
The game will also feature a Story mode of some sorts.
Here's some pics:
And a trailer already!
No Wii? Probably for Wii-U then, a launch title no doubt.
I'm a big Sega fan at heart, so I'm a lot more interested in this new Sega crossover than, say, a Sony or Nintendo one.
Honestly? Not feeling much the new transformable vehicles. At best it might be passable, at worst it will be just plain annoying and gimmicky. Making this new game more easier forgettable than the previous one...
Well, let's hope they'll use some ideas from that Art Jam I organized some years ago! :P
