While Sonic Rumble's global debut is on hold, fans of the multiplayer battle royale game can look forward to an exciting update. Originally set to launch with a crossover event featuring Super Monkey Ball, Altered Beast, and other Sega classics, Sonic Rumble has amassed over 1.4 million pre-registrations. However, Sega has decided to delay the release to focus on perfecting the version 1.2 update.
The upcoming update 1.2 is poised to enhance Dr. Eggman's toybox world with new features such as Rumble Rankings, Crews, and character Skills. These additions are designed to enrich the core gameplay experience. With Rumble Rankings, players can compete on seasonal leaderboards for exclusive rewards. The introduction of Crews will enable you and your friends to tackle score missions collaboratively. Additionally, the new Skills system will equip characters with unique abilities, adding a strategic layer to the game.
Sega's decision to delay the launch ensures these new elements are fully polished before release. To keep the community engaged, a Q&A session is scheduled for May 2nd on Discord, where fans can learn about future plans and ask their burning questions.
