Get ready, Sonic Rumble fans! Even though the game's worldwide release is still on the horizon, set for May 8th, Sonic Rumble is already kicking things off with an exciting pre-release crossover event. And it's not just any crossover; we're talking about an all-star lineup featuring iconic characters from some of Sega's most beloved franchises!
This unique event, happening before the global launch, is available to those in regions where Sonic Rumble is currently in soft launch. From now until May 7th, you have the chance to claim the Werewolf character from the classic game Altered Beast, absolutely free. It's a fantastic opportunity to get a head start with this legendary character.
For those who subscribe to the Sega Star Event Pass, the excitement continues. You'll unlock access to another Altered Beast character, the Weredragon, along with Sega's first mascot, Opa-Opa from the arcade classic Fantasy Zone. These additions promise to enrich your gameplay experience with a touch of nostalgia.
Lucky you
But wait, there's more! Head over to the in-game Ring Shop, where you can purchase additional characters like Upa-Upa and the Werebear. And if you're a fan of Super Monkey Ball, don't miss out on the Red Star Ring Shop, where you can grab AiAi and MeeMee. It's an unusual move to have such a robust event before the official release, but it's sure to thrill those lucky enough to participate during the soft launch phase.
Sega has hinted that this is just the beginning, with plans for a packed calendar of crossovers and collaborations for Sonic Rumble. So, keep your eyes peeled for more exciting announcements!
