Sonic and pals are able to draft behind their team members for a boost, boost them after taking a hit from a power-up or obstacle, or pass items to each other. The main mechanic here is the team races that pits various teams of three racers against each other with the game determining a winning team by adding up all of the racer’s final positions. Of course most Switch players likely already have Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on hand or digitally but for those starting to get bored with Nintendo’s flagship racer, Team Sonic Racing has some differences that are fun and intuitive. We played Team Sonic Racing on the Switch, which seems like one of the most appealing ways to play the game because having a fairly casual racing experience on the go is one of the best things that the Switch offers. However, Team Sonic Racing’s team mechanics and brilliant approach to time trials just might be enough for players to give it a shot. Truthfully though a giant looms over any go-kart racer, Mario Kart, and on the Switch it’s undoubtedly the game that Team Sonic Racing will be regularly compared to.
