Sonic Rumble may not have launched globally yet, but it's already making waves with its first crossover event, dubbed Crossover Event #0: SEGA Stars. This exciting event is live now and will continue until May 7th, just 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 initial pre-launch phase in Summer 2024, reaching regions like the Philippines, Scandinavian countries, and Colombia. The second pre-launch phase expanded availability to Canada, Turkey, Malaysia, South Africa, and other regions.
What’s in Store?
If you're located in one of the regions where Sonic Rumble has soft-launched, you can participate in the thrilling Sonic Rumble SEGA Stars crossover. Fans of Altered Beast will be thrilled to see the return of the Werewolf transformation, available for free.
For those nostalgic about the beast modes, the Werebear and Weredragon transformations are also up for grabs. The Weredragon is included in the Premium Pass, while the Werebear can be purchased with regular rings.
Adding to the excitement, Fantasy Zone's Opa-Opa and Upa-Upa are joining the fray. Opa-Opa is part of the Premium Pass, and Upa-Upa can be acquired through fragments, each costing 700 standard rings.
Super Monkey Ball's AiAi and MeeMee have also made their way into the crossover. To get AiAi, you'll need 729 Red Star Rings. You can get a glimpse of the crossover event in the video below.
Earn Exclusive Goodies During the Sonic Rumble SEGA Stars Crossover
During the event, you can collect SEGA logos in matches to earn additional rewards. It might seem unusual for the event to be live before the global release, but SEGA has assured that most of these pre-release rewards will return later.
The first crossover event of Sonic Rumble delves into SEGA's rich history, bringing together monkeys, sentient arcade ships, and mythical creatures to mingle with Sonic and friends. This fusion of classic and contemporary SEGA characters makes Sonic Rumble a highly anticipated game.
You can download Sonic Rumble from the Google Play Store now or wait for its global launch on May 8th in your region.
