Godzilla & Evangelion DLC Coming to Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

Godzilla’s entered a golden age of third party crossovers! After his grand appearance in the mobile game Sonic Rush and the King of the Monsters’ upcoming appearance in IDW publishing’s Sonic the Hedgehog x Godzilla, it has now been confirmed by SEGA at Summer Game Fest that the next wave of DLCs will begin with a Godzilla-themed one. At this time, the only solid confirmation we have is a new racing track in which Godzilla is a stage hazard called Godzilla Escape, but there could be more announced later, as the official announcement from SEGA states “These larger-than-life characters and other challengers are zooming into the CrossWorlds to shake up each race.”

Additionally, the second DLC will be Evangelion-themed, adding to the roster of kajiu/anime-centric crossovers that will inhabit this Super Smash Bros-esque racing game full of guest characters. From the glimpses we have seen, it appears that EVA-01 will share a similar role to Godzilla, being there as a gigantic stage hazard, but in this wild world of racing, anything can happen. The upcoming track featuring the EVA-01 will be titled Tokyo III and be the second DLC in Wave 2 for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds.

Do we want Godzilla to drive a race car? Absolutely. It seems unlikely, but it would make our entire week. Trailer below!

SEGA released a press release article, stating, “On a remote, storm-ravaged colony-world, players will endure the elements as they navigate the planet’s surface, and explore the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station. It’s a new hunting-ground for the Alien, forcing players to improvise and develop new tools, techniques and tactics to survive the deadly game of cat-and-mouse.”

Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly, shared, “It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel.
