Team Sonic Racing producer explains why the game saw a lengthy delay
That pesky online code
Team Sonic Racing was originally going to launch in Winter 2018, but SEGA ended up pushing the game back all the way to May 2019. Why on earth was there such a sizable delay? Producer Takashi Iizuka answered that question in an interview with Siliconera.
“The biggest reason for the wait was because it took time to overcome problems with online races. Because people will not be playing it within the same network environments, with at most 12 players in one race this time, adjusting it was quite a large task. We kept testing the minimum network connection tests, which led to more debugging, and it took longer than we thought.”
