A Sonic x Pac-Man collaboration has been announced that sees Pac-Man coming to Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, and Sonic coming to Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac.
Pac-Man and the ghosts will become playable characters in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds in a DLC pack that’s set to launch in early 2026. A Pac-Man themed course will also be added. This DLC pack will be included for season pass holders. A open multiplayer network test will also run from August 29th to September 1st if you’re curious about trying Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds early.
In addition to this, a Green Hill Zone stage and a Sonic costume will be added to Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac in a DLC pack that’s set to launch in late 2025. You can check out in-game action of both DLC packs in the trailer below:
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds launches September 25th 2025. Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac launches the following day on September 26th 2025. Both games launch on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, Switch 2 and PC.
The latest PS4 iteration of Namco’s beloved drum-em-up Taiko No Tatsujin is getting a fresh dose of SEGA rhythm action, as one of the newly announced DLC packs for the game includes music from SEGA’s arcade classic Out Run.
Unsurprisingly, “Magical Sound Shower” is the track being added, considered by many as the Out Run song. It’s not made clear if it’s the original arcade arrangement, a later arrangement from the likes of Out Run 2, or even a new arrangement for the game. There’s not long to find out however, as the DLC pack it’s included in, “Don Na Pack Vol. 16”, will be released in Japan on January 24th 2019, for 500 yen. The pack also includes music from the anime High Score Girl and Darius II.
Also somewhat related to SEGA is the next DLC pack, which was released today in Japan; a collection of Hatsune Miku songs, including the smash hit Senbonzakura. This pack weighs in at a rather fitting 390 yen.

The first character artwork and screenshot of Axel Stone in Project X Zone 2 has been revealed and they’re pretty faithful to the original character design. You can check them both out below:
This is Axel Stone’s first in-game appearance since Streets of Rage 3 in 1994. Axel will be voiced by Tomokazu Sugita. Project X Zone 2 releases worldwide on 3DS this Autumn.
Some new characters have been revealed for Project X Zone 2, the crossover strategy RPG from Bandai Namco, Capcom and SEGA.
New to the series is Phoenix Wright and Maya Fey from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Aty from Summon Night 3 and Nana Kazuki and Ciel Alencon from God Eater 2.
The news that will excite SEGA fans is the inclusion of Axel Stone from Streets of Rage. This marks the character’s first new appearance in a video game since Streets of Rage 3 in 1994. Axel joins Gemini Sunrise and Sakura Shinguji from Sakura Wars as the currently confirmed SEGA characters for Project X Zone 2.
