Sonic Racing Unveils Update with New Characters and Challenges

by Peyton May 18,2025

Sega has just released an exhilarating update for Sonic Racing, now available exclusively on Apple Arcade. This update brings new community challenges, fresh characters, and additional cosmetic options, enhancing the already thrilling multiplayer racing experience while fostering a sense of teamwork within the Sonic Racing community.

A key feature of this update is the introduction of community challenges. Players can now collaborate with the global Sonic Racing community to achieve collective objectives and unlock substantial rewards. It's an excellent opportunity to work together and gain access to exclusive in-game goodies.

Two new characters have been added to the roster: Popstar Amy, who can be unlocked through time trials, and Idol Shadow, available as a reward for participating in community challenges. These additions join the previously introduced Rockstar Rouge and DJ Vector, further expanding the selection of racers from the beloved Sonic franchise.

ytSonic Racing delivers the fast-paced action inspired by Team Sonic Racing, allowing you to race as one of 15 characters across the Sonic universe. The game features time trials, team combos, and 15 tracks spread over five zones, each offering unique challenges as you strive for victory.

With 2024 being hailed as the Year of Shadow, the introduction of Idol Shadow to Sonic Racing perfectly aligns with the current focus on this iconic anti-hero.
