And just like the Sonic Mania Adventures which released throughout the course of 2018, the second half of the new animation will release at a later point this year.

For when players can expect the new title to be announced will be difficult to determine. But if the latest rumor revolving around Sega is true about their partnership with Google, fans might get a glimpse pretty soon as Google will be revealing their involvement in the gaming industry at this year’s Game Developers Conference held in San Francisco, California.

Team Sonic Racing will be available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC on May 21, 2019.
