"Sonic Rumble Delayed: Sega Prepares Update"

Despite an exciting pre-launch crossover event featuring iconic Sega games like Super Monkey Ball and Altered Beast, Sonic Rumble's global debut is being postponed. Initially set for a full release with over 1.4 million pre-registrations, Sega has decided to delay the launch to refine the game further.

The team at Sega is currently working on the version 1.2 update, which introduces a host of new features to enrich the gameplay experience within Dr. Eggman's toybox world. Key additions include Rumble Rankings, Crews, and character Skills. Rumble Rankings will enable players to compete on seasonal leaderboards for exclusive rewards, while Crews will foster teamwork through collaborative score missions. The new Skills system will equip characters with unique abilities, adding a layer of strategy to the game.

Rather than releasing these updates mid-launch, Sega has chosen to delay the game to ensure a polished experience. In the meantime, fans can look forward to a Q&A session on Discord scheduled for May 2nd, where they can get updates and ask questions directly.

The delay won't affect the pre-registration rewards, which include 5,000 Rings, a Crystal Chao Buddy, the Happy Sticker, the Garnet Knuckles skin, and the exclusive Movie Sonic skin for reaching the 1.4 million pre-registration mark. These rewards will be available when the game launches.
