Sonic Riders is an upcoming Sonic racing game, revealed by Famitsu on September 7, 2005, prior to 2005's Tokyo Game Show. It will be available for the Nintendo GameCube, Sony PlayStation 2, and Microsoft X-Box in Japan by Winter 2005, but a western release date is unknown.
The game's premise is that Doctor Eggman has set up a hoverboard racing tournament, and our heroes have all taken up the challenged. The victor will obtain one of the Chaos Emeralds.
The boards that the characters ride are air-powered. While it's possible to refuel air at various points along the track, the main method of refueling is to perform various stunts with your board, or ride off the turbulence another board gives off.
The known characters are:
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Miles "Tails" Prower
- Knuckles the Echidna
- Storm the Albatross
- Jet the Hawk
- Web the Swallow
Speculated playable characters include Dr. Eggman and Amy Rose.
Currently known courses are:
- Splash Canyon
- Egg Factory
- Green Cave
- Sandy Ruin
The game is being produced by Yuda Koshi, who has worked on such titles as Puyo Puyo and Space Channel 5.
