SEGA has announced the release date for the Persona 5 Joker DLC for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds.

The DLC is set to release on October 22nd 2025, and will add Joker as a new racer, as well as a new track and kart. There will also be a “Joker Festival” event running from October 23rd to October 26th. Presumably, players will not need the DLC to join the event as with the Minecraft Festival.

Free Update #2: Joker is arriving Wed, Oct 22!

And get ready for some exciting races during the Joker Festival, which will run from Thurs, Oct 23 at 8 PM (ET) through Sun, Oct 26 at 7:59 PM (ET)!
