A massive Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds leak has revealed crossover content featuring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Avatar: The Last Airbender, SpongeBob, and Minecraft, along with actual gameplay footage
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds has already been building plenty of hype among fans, with many excited to see how Sega’s next big kart racer will try to stand out. Over the last few weeks, the rumor mill picked up steam with talk of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and even SpongeBob SquarePants joining the roster, thanks to a few cryptic teases from known leakers.
Now, those rumors just got a major boost. Today, a leaker on X (Twitter), F2Insider, dropped a ton of brand new Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds images, along with direct gameplay footage, giving us the best look yet at some of the crossover content coming to the game.
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds Leaked Footage Showcases TMNT Van, Avatar Bending, and Minecraft Content
The latest batch of leaks is absolutely packed. For starters, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles “Pizza Van” is shown off in four color variants, each matching one of the four turtles. It’s a playful, cartoon-style vehicle covered in pizza art, complete with color-coordinated seats and “Turtle Power” branding.
There’s also a full preview of a TMNT-themed race track, which takes players from the Turtles’ iconic sewers through a New York City stage, complete with mutant boss encounters. The leaks go even further with the reveal of a crossover with Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Not only is Aang seen riding a custom hoverboard designed after his signature staff, but gameplay images show a new “Bending Gates” mechanic. Here, racers pick up powers like Earthbending to clear obstacles or open shortcuts. Tracks inspired by the Lion Turtle Islands and Southern Air Temple are also featured, with alternate routes based on your chosen elemental power.
Minecraft is in the mix as well, with the character select menu showing a Minecraft-style character (probably Steve), hinting at playable Minecraft content and themed vehicles. Customization is also a huge focus in the leak. Players can mix and match hoverboard parts, swap colors, and personalize rides with a simple, easy-to-use interface.
And finally, one of the most surprising reveals is the appearance of SpongeBob SquarePants as a playable racer. According to the leaks, SpongeBob will have his own themed vehicle and track, making this one of the wildest crossovers in a Sonic racing game to date.
Right now, these leaks confirm TMNT, Avatar, and Minecraft as crossover universes in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. There are also strong hints that even more franchises could join soon, but as always, nothing is final until Sega officially announces it.
Take all of this with a grain of salt, since leaks can always change or end up being out of date. Still, with Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds expected to launch later this year and major events like PlayStation’s State of Play and Summer Game Fest happening this week, we might get official news very soon.
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is set to launch on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
