SEGA Stars Join Sonic Rumble in Historic Crossover Event!

Sonic Rumble is making waves even before its global launch, already introducing an exciting crossover event named Crossover Event #0: SEGA Stars. This event is live now and will run until May 7th, right before the game's worldwide launch on May 8th.

Currently in soft launch, Sonic Rumble is accessible in over 40 countries. The game had its first pre-launch in Summer 2024 in regions like the Philippines, Scandinavian countries, and Colombia. The second pre-launch expanded to Canada, Turkey, Malaysia, South Africa, and other regions.

What's in Store?

If you're in one of the regions where Sonic Rumble soft-launched last year, you can participate in the Sonic Rumble SEGA Stars crossover. The event brings back the Altered Beast crew, offering the Werewolf transformation for free. Fans of the classic beast modes can also unlock the Werebear and Weredragon, though with different payment methods. The Weredragon is exclusive to the Premium Pass, while the Werebear can be purchased with regular rings.

Fantasy Zone enthusiasts will be thrilled to see Opa-Opa and Upa-Upa joining the fray. Opa-Opa is included in the Premium Pass, whereas Upa-Upa can be obtained through fragments bought with standard rings, each costing 700.

Additionally, AiAi and MeeMee from Super Monkey Ball have joined the Sonic Rumble SEGA Stars crossover. To get AiAi, you'll need to spend 729 Red Star Rings. For a visual treat, check out the crossover event in the video below.

Earn Exclusive Goodies During the Sonic Rumble SEGA Stars Crossover

During matches, you can earn extra goodies by collecting SEGA logos. Although it may seem unusual for the event to be live before the global release, SEGA has confirmed that most of these pre-release rewards will return later.

It's thrilling to witness Sonic Rumble's first crossover event, which delves into SEGA's rich history and current offerings. The mix of monkeys, sentient arcade ships, and transformed beasts interacting with Sonic and friends adds a promising flair to Sonic Rumble.

You can download the game from the Google Play Store now or await its global release on May 8th in your region.
