SEGA today announced Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing, a supercharged racer heading to Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and Nintendo DS in early 2010.

Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing sees Sonic and friends speed around tracks set in mediaeval castle ramparts, lush rainforests and bustling cities, all taken from varied universes of Sonic and SEGA.

Fan favourites such as Dr. Eggman, Tails, AiAi, Amigo and many more will join Sonic in their custom built vehicles as they battle to cross the finish line in first place. Each character has a specific All Star move such as Super Sonic, Banana Blitz and Tails Tornado, allowing a quick way for players to bring themselves back into contention. Power ups and weapons can also be collected around the tracks and used against the opposition.

Players can battle it out in single or multiplayer modes, allowing up to four friends to race in frantic split-screen action, or up to eight players to compete online.
