Yes, I know the “WARNING” sign is a staple of the X and Zero series, but I couldn’t resist, as the long-awaited Mega Man DLC Pack has finally debuted in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds.
Released on March 25, 2026, the pack is the game’s fourth overall paid DLC package, following its Minecraft, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Pac-Man crossovers, and can be acquired for $5.99/£4.99 indivudually or via the game’s Season Pass. Those who purchase the game’s Deluxe Edition on any platform will also have immediate access to it. Together with two new racers (Mega Man and Proto Man), the pack offers the following:
