We get hands-on with SEGA’s latest build of their kart racer, which has come along from what we saw at GDC…
Matt got hands-on with an early build of the game at GDC this year (you can read his impressions here). This new build had improved graphics which flew past at 60 frames second, as well as offering up universal support for all iOS devices. We played it on the iPad 2 and it ran great. New to this almost final build were more characters and courses from the best of SEGA’s game franchises. I geeked out to see mascots from the likes of Shenmue, Jet Set Radio Future, Choo Choo Rocket, Crazy Taxi and Samba De Amigo. There are courses that represent these classic games too, each with their own individual stylings.
With it’s sheer amount of content, including local and online multi-player support, plus a mario kart style battle mode, Sonic SEGA All-Stars Racing is shaping up to be the karting game to beat on the AppStore… Look out Crash Bandicoot! Sonic is coming to get you!
