The latest Minecraft x Sonic collaboration has left the gaming community excited, with an array of popular characters and mobs from the sandbox title set to make their way to Sonic Crossworlds. The kart racing game will feature settings and iconic characters from the world of Minecraft, allowing players to take on the form of Alex, Steve, creepers, and more.

Besides being a massive collaboration, the Minecraft x Sonic partnership could pave the way for more content from Mojang's titles to make its way to the SEGA universe and vice versa. While Minecraft icons are making their way to the game, it could also open the door for popular characters and franchises to reach the Marketplace as skins and add-ons.

The collaboration could see iconic characters from games like Yakuza, Metaphor: ReFantazio, and the world of Puyo Puyo be featured as character creator items or be added as worlds and experiences for gamers to enjoy. Future add-ons from collaborations could also include mob bosses such as Eggman’s mech or Shin Megami Tensei demons, making it a fun and interactive experience.

With Mojang's rich history of brand and franchise collaborations, it could come as no surprise if developers have more universes lined up in terms of partnerships. Future projects could include city and world maps from popular universes, such as Yakuza, to make their way to the Minecraft Marketplace as interactive experiences. Additionally, items such as SEGA retro block packs could also be featured.

In the past, Mojang has partnered with developers such as Nintendo to feature popular characters and icons in games such as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as well as the critically-acclaimed Super Meat Boy. Now, players must wait for an official announcement from the developers to see if any future collaborations are in the cards.
