    Very enjoyable experience but unfortunately this game is heavily focused on cooperation and teams. And when your team is not cooperative you are going to lose. Graphic is nice but there is lot of dips and drops in fps. There are some nice tracks but most of them is really generic. Roster of characters is kinda small and statistics of cars aren't really effect gameplay that much.

    Un juego entretenido que no se siente repetido en las misiones o en la historia principal, aunque siento que son pocas las pistas y personajes que se pueden elegir y a veces es muy tedioso depender de CPU para poder ganar.

    This game is alright, but is probably the worst racing game of all the racing games SEGA has released thus far in the past twenty years (2000-2020). I’m more of a SEGA racer, and it’s fun to see old friends from previous games, but SEGA is just trying way to hard to revive a dead franchise when it should be focusing on lost and better-potential franchises.

    I do not see the point of making a game that is inferior to Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed in every way.
    It's much slower and less exhilirating, the items are way less cool, the roster's limited to Sonic universe only characters, most of whom are bland and uninspired and so are the race tracks.

    The dialogue is pretty abysmal as well.

    A good kart-racing game that adds a few of its own features to differentiate it from the usual suspects. These features run together to make a snappy, fun experience overall. The gameplay of it rocks, but without kickass music or story to bring me back, its only good for a single playthrough. I'm glad I played the game, but it's not game of the year or anything.

    On Stage 6-3 you have to do a optional bonus race on silver to progress in game! The web is full of comments that many player cant do this and they quit, same as me. Its enough Sega! Time to deleate this piece of software junk!    … Expand

    Team Sonic Racing might not be able to stand up against Mario Kart but it still offers an enjoyable racing experience with plenty of nostalgia for fans of the series.

    I just don't get it. Sonic is fast... why is he in a car? I get the gimmick of putting well established characters from a huge franchise in easy-to-sell types of games, but this makes no sense at all. Just run lil' blue bro. It's what you do.

    The gameplay is decent but far too simple and arcadey for my taste. On a technical level everything is just alright. Surprise - there is no plot.    I just don't get it.

    This is a very good kart racer with the team system it feels fresh and exciting if you have a good team of friends its a blast boosting each other and getting the team to the finish line. it has good tracks awesome graphics and art style and it has no micro transactions would recommend for any one who likes Mario kart, Crash team racing and the like

    People are overrating this game so bad on here. The game is barely average. It's quite lackluster. It would have been 50x better having an online coop campaign. Who wants to play a coop-made game in single player alone? Seems so lame. AI sucks.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While Team Sonic Racing (PS4 Version) is the third best version after the XBOX ONE version and Switch version where you team up with two other people to play, and I think it'll be a great game, because it has some parts I like where you can explore new maps with awesome music, and how you can also earn stuff that can customize your car, and the game-play of the game, and the items are useful but their wisps since they support you in Sonic Colours, but I don't like the fact that if you get in first place and your teammate place was around 7th place, it'll bring you down, but I'll say this is a great game for racing and fun for people, so I'll give it a 9/10.… Expand

    Team Sonic Racing offers a thrilling twist to the arcade racing genre. It's team-based gameplay is interesting yet rather exploitable. The game's tracks are expertly designed.

    This game finally turned into a Mario Kart clone and it is every bit as terrible as that series. The last good Mario Kart was Mario Kart 64.

This is what you get here with Team Sonic Racing, it is a hardcore Mario Kart ripoff, but people keep eating up that series because it is engrained into video game culture. So it makes sense for SEGA to try to turn this into a Mario Kart clone, that is what you call a sell out. They know full well that this new entry stinks and is just an item galore fest with mind numbing tracks to race in. But the prospect of more money is too good to miss out on huh SEGA? Suck it you sell outs. I am glad this game tanked.… Expand

    You know, the game is actually not that boring as Sonic Forces, but still disappointing. The number 1 reason why is refunded this game is the graphics. It feels like they look even worse than Sonic Forces, they are just blurry and the lighting is garbage. The most shocking part is that Sega sells this game with a price of a mainline Sonic game.

Online is dead, and you should find friends if you don't want to play with bots. Because of the small number of maps, you will replay the same levels with no changes again and again in story mode.

    If you want a Sonic racing game, buy Transformed. It's a pretty decent game, but the community is also dead.

    For this game, I want to spit on the face of the publishers, but not the developers who have made at least some work on the gameplay.    … Expand

    Really fun and creative racer. Sega and Sumo put a lot of effort into this one, and it clearly shows. Each character is unique, and the race tracks have various incentives to play as the other characters. Overall, worth playing!

    Cool game, better than Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. I like music in this game she is energetic and fit for the game.
    I also like the system of helping each other in a 3-person team, it's something new and cool compared to the previous game with sonic with cars

    Excellent racing and awesome team work mechanism! Fun, fast and arcade. That's all we need with my team mates. Thanks Sega!

    Note: for me it's more enjoyable than the big rival. Faster and more arcade thanks for the outstanding Sonic music and pimps.

    I really enjoyed Team Sonic Racing. The team mechanics make the kart racing feel fresh and help the game stand out from the other kart racers out there. The track design captures the fun and spirit of the Sonic universe, and the races are every bit as fast as they should be. If you're looking for fast and fun kart racing, take Team Sonic Racing out for a spin.

    Team Sonic Racing is not just a kart game with tight mechanics. By introducing teamwork as the core element of its gameplay, it becomes a racing game with its own unique appeal. Its lengthy and diverse adventure mode could teach Mario Kart a few lessons too.
