CrossWorlds Sales Underwhelm, Failing to Meet Initial Expectations
SEGA has recently commented on the sales performance of its game, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. While the title has achieved significant milestones, the company expresses concerns about its initial sales figures.
Sales Performance Overview
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds has sold over 1 million copies globally, a notable achievement. However, this number falls short of SEGA’s expectations, as confirmed by Executive Koichi Fukazawa.
Expectations vs. Reality
- Sales Target: SEGA aims to sell an additional 1 million copies within the current fiscal year.
- Performance Ratings: The game holds a score of over 80 on Metascore and an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating on Steam.
Future Plans for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds
To boost sales, SEGA is committed to providing ongoing support for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. The company plans to release additional downloadable content (DLC) to enhance player engagement and satisfaction.
Launch and Releases
The game initially launched for Nintendo Switch in late September, followed by a version for the Switch 2 in December. A physical release for the latter is scheduled for next month, indicating SEGA’s continued investment in the title.
In summary, while Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds has reached a significant sales landmark, SEGA’s determination to improve its performance reflects the competitive nature of the gaming industry.
