Rather unexpectedly and with little fanfare, games maker Sega has released a brand new title on the App Store. CalledSonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, the game is actually the official iOS port ofSonic & All-Stars Racing Transformedfor consoles and part of its2013 winter release schedule.
If you’ve played Mario-like kart racing games such asRovio’sAngry Birds Go!, you should feel right at home inSonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. A pared down version ofTransformedon consoles, the game sports a brand new World Tour mode designed specifically for mobile, with multiplayer both locally and online for up to four players…
From iTunes release notes:
Race as Sonic and a host of legendary All-Stars and prepare to transform! Speed across land, sea and air in a high velocity battle to the finish line, as your amazing transformable vehicle changes from car to boat to plane mid-race. Racing on mobile will never be the same again!
Check out the trailer.
Isn’t it funny seeing Sonic driving when in fact he can outrun any vehicle with ease?
Just saying…
Tracks are pretty dynamic: you’ll discover alternate routes, with courses themselves changing throughout the race.
Features include support for iOS 7 physical controllers, daily and weekly challenges, online/local multiplayer challenges for up to four players, Facebook integration for your friends’s profile pics on the track and more.
The initial version includes ten legendary Sega characters, each with their own unique transformable vehicle, but more are“coming soon”by way of content updates.
