The team sought to make the game stand out in comparison to other racing games and developed it using a modified version of the All-Stars game engine. Game modes include competing to earn points, time trials, customizing the racing rules, and a story-driven campaign that serves as a tutorial. Sonic Team head and game producer Takashi Iizuka conceived the cooperative gameplay, and Sumo Digital used the team-based Sonic Heroes as a point of reference.

Team Sonic Racing differs from traditional kart racers because of its focus on cooperative gameplay-the player is part of a team of racers and win races through efficiency and teamwork instead of speed. Gameplay is viewed from a third-person perspective, with players driving performing tricks, drifting, and collecting power-ups. In the game, players take control of one of fifteen characters from the cast of the Sonic series and compete in races using sports cars. Said to combine the best elements of arcade and fast-paced competitive style racing, Team Sonic Racing has the player face-off with friends in intense multiplayer racing. Unlike Sumo Digital's previous Sonic racing games, Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, Team Sonic Racing only features characters from the Sonic universe, as the team wanted to expand the series' world and character roster. It received both a physical and digital release for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, and a digital-only release on Steam for the PC. The game is developed by Sumo Digital and published by Sega, and was released on. Team Sonic Racing ( チームソニックレーシング, Chīmu Sonikku Rēshingu ?) is a kart racing video game and a spin-off from the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
