Sonic the Hedgehog is preparing to celebrate its 35th anniversary, as hinted by a recent Amazon listing. Discover exclusive new artwork and merchandise while Sega playfully competes with Mario Kart World.
Marking Sonic the Hedgehog's 35th anniversary in 2026, Sega appears ready with early celebrations. The company has listed a limited-edition wall calendar on Amazon, featuring premium character artwork and anniversary branding.
This collector's item presents fresh Sonic illustrations alongside nostalgic game art spanning from the 1991 original to recent releases. According to the official description: "Speed through Sonic's rich history with this commemorative calendar showcasing iconic moments from three-and-a-half decades of high-speed adventures. Ideal for dedicated fans and newcomers alike—because speed never goes out of style!"
Pre-orders are now open for this exclusive set, which includes four 3D-standee notecards featuring Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, and Tails. The calendar will ship starting August 19, 2025.
The Sonic franchise prepares for another major 2025 release—Sonic Racing: Crossworlds—amid growing competition from Nintendo's newly announced Mario Kart World. Both racing titles are scheduled for mid-2025 releases.
Sega couldn't resist acknowledging its rival's announcement through witty social media banter. Their April 3 post began by congratulating Nintendo before humorously asserting Crossworlds' superiority: "The only upcoming kart racer where you can actually compete with friends!" This lighthearted rivalry continues gaming's most iconic competition.
2025 shapes up to deliver thrilling competition between these legendary racing franchises. While Crossworlds offers multiplatform accessibility, Mario Kart World promises groundbreaking Switch 2 integration.
Ultimately, players stand to benefit most from these high-quality releases. Sonic Racing: Crossworlds arrives later this year across PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC platforms—though specific launch dates remain undisclosed.
