In Team Sonic Racing, you’ll be able to work with other characters to pull off a variety of techniques that you can use to slow down your opponents. Five new moves are highlighted: Skimboost: Lets you speed past teammates who might be having trouble and pull them back into the race
Slingshot: Get a boost by driving behind a teammate in their slipstream
Rival Takedown: Knock out rivals in front of you and speed past them
Item Box Transfer: Send or receive wisps from your teammates anywhere on the track
Team Ultimate: Fill your Team Ultimate meter by using the skills listed above to unleash a powerful team boost

On top of all of that, we got a peek at Ice Mountain, a wintery track that will pose some slippery challenges to folks who want to push the speed limit. Team Rose, a dynamic trio that also happens to be a new playable character, also makes their debut.

Team Sonic Racing is expected to launch on Nintendo Switch this winter.
