In a continued effort to build the hype for Team Sonic Racing's upcoming release, Sega has shared a quick glimpse of a new track and its accompanying song for fans to enjoy.
The new map is called Whale Lagoon, with Sonic and friends heading to the shore for a race through an underwater landscape full of mysterious marine creatures. You can see it in all of its glory in the image below.
Whale Lagoon's music comes in the form of a new remix of 'Seaside Hill', originally from Sonic Heroes. The track once again features Hyper Potions and Jun Senoue, just like the previous song release - a remix of 'Market Street' from Sonic Unleashed. You can give the new remix a listen right here:
Do you think Team Sonic Racing's delay will turn the game into a real winner when it launches next year? Feel free to share your thoughts with us in the comments below.

Still looking forward to this one, for sure. Delays are never good, but if its necessary to make it a better game then by all means.
This actually looks better and better with each new trailer.
I understand wanting to change up the gameplay some and maybe adding a new mode, but I think many just want a S&SASR3 instead of the team racing gimmick they're trying to force into the game.
Let's be honest, the initial previews and feedback for the game were mixed at best. If the delay refines or changes the game up enough to where it's overall a better experience, then I'm okay with the 6 months being used to make it a better game.
The music is great in that one
Another Sonic game, another Seaside Hill remix... Good think it's a good tune to begin with! This remix is actually pretty sweet, which makes sense given Jun Senoue AND Hyper Potions are working on it!
Wow! I can't believe they are bringing back this track from first S&ASR. Can't wait to see how it stacks up in HD! I'll likely pre order this soon.
@nocdaes Me too. Can't wait for more Sonic racing.
VIBES!
...dammit, I am slowly being sold on this game.
I’m excited about this. Aside from Sonic I’ve not played any other Sega games so quite a few of the courses/characters in the All Star Racing games meant nothing to me. I’m mostly looking forward to seeing what levels they choose for courses. As mediocre as Lost World was its be great to have a tubular level from there.
Not asrt, not interested. The sonic universe doesn't have enough content to get me invested.
What do you mean by new?
@Hikingguy I would prefer an upgarde to Racing Transformed... This game looks like a step backwards with a silly team gimmick. I'll probaby wait for reviews and ultimately pass ... Maybe Activision will do a proper Crash Team Racing Remaster instead.
Is this track not from the original all stars racing? It’s not new. Great track btw, I’d love to see a few classic tracks included in the new game.
Personally after Sonic Free Riders screwed the Riders series I can understand SEGA wanting to make another "Sonic only" racing game.
Personally I felt Transformed was a hollow shell of the previous game. Sonic and SEGA All-Stars Racing on my Wii was fun, active and felt alive. But Transformed toned down a lot of character dialogue, animations, and even the announcer. Stripping away any personality that the series had in the first place. Plus the Wii U/console versions were inferior to the PC verison which had access to TF2 CHARACTERS. Sure, Wreck-It Ralph is cool but I'm still confused as to why Billy Hatcher was cut from Transformed.
Regardless, I say let Sumo do what they want and we'll see how it turns out with this new title that is free of the SEGA lineup.
People keep talking about this remix of Market Street from Sonic Unleashed.
I don't recall a stage named that in Unleashed. Odd.
@ryancraddock
More Hyper Potions and Jun Senoue? Count me in.
@Knuckles-Fajita The Team Sonic Racing track is called Market Street and it's music is a remix of Rooftop Run (Day).
@Grumblevolcano That's the joke. I know it's Rooftop Run, but the article, and Push Square, said the stage in Unleashed was called Market Street, when that's the name of the track in Racing.
This song was just this side of annoying, but oh well. I'm still super excited for this game. I loved Sonic All Stars Racing on Wii U, and since there's no new Mario Kart for Switch, this game will probably make me break my rule about waiting for reviews before I buy.
Escape From the City or no buy. Actually, that might be a nice track, speeding down roads while a giant truck is chasing you.
@Knuckles-Fajita @Grumblevolcano Yep, you're right, but Sega itself keeps describing it as a remix of 'Market Street' so who are we to argue otherwise? 😛
It great to see some older tracks popping up. Just a shame there won't be any from the other franchises making a retrurn.
@ryancraddock To be fair, when has SEGA known what they are doing regarding Sonic?
@PolarExperience My favourite Sonic vocal song:

@BlueOcean It really is a great song, sucks that it is underused just because there are very few situations where it fits. It’s definitely one of the best songs in the Sonic series.
Yeah and I like that lead singer more than the other(s). Nice voice.
