A new trailer for the PC version of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed was put up on Sega’s press site today showing that three playable characters previously found in the data of the console version will be playable only in the PC release. These include the guy on the cover of Football Manager with a helmet on (aka the Tactician), The Deadly Assassin from Shogun: Total War and the Heavy, Pyro and Spy from Valve’s Team Fortress 2.
You can pre-purchase it now on Steam now for 10% off or from Green Man Gaming for another 25% off until tomorrow with this coupon: GMG25-XTYYZ-POSL1. Also, unlike what the trailer says, the PC version doesn’t come out until January 31st. Below you can find some screenshots and promotional artwork.

The Tactician cracks me up, what a perfect way to pull a character out of nowhere.

the guy from Football Manager? seriously? and i thought Danica Patrick was a baffling choice but oh well, still looks like it’s gonna be a lot of fun on PC

Who cares about these characters if we get ripped off for Metal Sonic again!

a better idea than characters most people will never use would have been alternate vehicles! Like bringing back Shadows trademark motorcycle! wtf

I was hoping that Football Manager would at least be coming to consoles since there were some on the 360 at least.
Oh well.

I challenge SEGA to make all (and I mean ALL) of the crossover game characters interact with one another. That’s the initial appeal of crossovers; your favorite characters coming together. But to do what? So what if Sonic, Wreck-it-Ralph, and the TF2 characters are in the same game if they’re just going to act as if they were alone?
