Title: Disney's Wreck-It Ralph to be Playable in Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed

Cross promotion at its finest!

The titular character in Disney's upcoming film Wreck-It Ralph will be a playable character in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, SEGA has announced.

The movie features Wreck-It Ralph, a video game villain who decides he wants to leave his arcade cabinet and finally play the role of the good guy in others. The director of the animated film, Rich Moore, called the crossover "a dream come true." In fact, he was so excited, he might have gone ahead and let another crossover slip (mild spoiler):

“The film pays homage to the video games I loved as a kid, including Sonic the Hedgehog in a special cameo, so being able to see Wreck-It Ralph in a real video game alongside Sonic and other iconic SEGA characters is unbelievably exciting for me and should be a treat for fans!”

Both Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed and Wreck-It Ralph release this November.

Now the question is will that include the 3DS version. Since not all versions will have the same amount of characters.

I really liked the first All-Stars Racing. I'm interested in this.

The post on SEGA's blog does seem to intimate that all versions will include him, but I know what you are saying. Still, if this has been in the works for a while, I would think that he'll be in the 3DS version. Especially since that version might be most readily available to children.

This is great news! The movie looks good, and I really enjoyed the last sonic racing game as well.
