PC gamers have their own attractive offers to consider.

The game itself is packed with content. Players begin with a selection of 23 racers and 45 distinct vehicles. A deep customization system allows for personalization using a library of 70 different gadgets. The track selection is equally impressive, featuring 24 primary courses.

Whether you prefer to play alone or with friends, there are numerous modes to enjoy, including local split-screen co-op and online races supporting up to 12 players.
For fans intrigued by the Sonic Prime Character Pack included in the Deluxe Edition, it’s interesting to note that the complete Netflix animated series is also available in a physical format. Sonic Prime: The Complete Series Steelbook Edition recently saw a significant price reduction, now selling for just $27 at major retailers like Amazon and Walmart, down from its original $50 price tag.
