With its worldwide release scheduled for May 8th, Sonic Rumble is already gearing up for an exciting pre-release crossover event. This isn't just any crossover; it's a celebration of Sega's iconic characters from past and present, bringing them into the Sonic Rumble universe.
This special event, which kicks off before the global launch, is available to players in regions participating in the soft launch. From now until May 7th, you have the chance to claim the Werewolf character from the classic game Altered Beast, absolutely free.
For those who subscribe to the Sega Star Event Pass, there's even more in store. You can unlock the Weredragon from Altered Beast and the beloved Opa-Opa from the arcade hit Fantasy Zone.
Lucky youBut that's not all! Additional characters like Upa-Upa and the Werebear will be available for purchase in the in-game Ring Shop. Meanwhile, fans of Super Monkey Ball can look forward to acquiring AiAi and MeeMee from the Red Star Ring Shop.
While it's unusual to see such an event before a game's official release, those fortunate enough to participate in the soft launch will undoubtedly enjoy getting their hands on these unique characters.
This crossover is just the beginning. Sega has promised a packed calendar of exciting collaborations and events for Sonic Rumble, ensuring that the fun continues long after the global launch.
