Are there any announced DLC plans for the game? Would be great if they added more tracks and characters. Please Sega, give me Studiopolis and City Escape!
There has been no announcement for DLC yet (unsurprisingly), but given the past two Sega kart racers, it's very likely Sumo is going to do DLC for this game (and possibly even release some of it for free!).
Though I'm kind of struggling to think of anything but deep cut or recent characters like Fang or Infinite, unless they go the route of having other Sega series characters.
With Vector teaming up with Blaze and Silver, they kind of blocked themselves from having Charmy and Espio (though especially Espio could still be added via a team with like Fang, Mighty or Ray - in fact, Fang or Charmy would be a perfect Tech and Mighty a Power character for Espio's speed), and Cream doesn't seem particularly likely given that Team Rose already is in and she doesn't really go with anyone else.
I could see the Sonic Riders bird trio, perhaps, and some of the other villains (as said Infinite, but also stuff like Mephiles, Emerl or Chaos wouldn't be strange), and maaaaaybe a Sonic R team with Eggrobo, Tails Doll and Metal Knuckles, or a Fighter team with Bark, Bean and Honey.
I'd love for them to go full on deep cut Sonic characters, personally, but I'm not sure they will.
