Alas, it doesn’t look that likely. Aaron Webber, who serves as “social media and PR for a certain blue hedgehog” over at the company, recently took to Twitter to douse our dreams quicker than a water cannon. He noted, “Hi guys – saw rumors floating today about another SART game. Just wanted to confirm it’s not a thing!”
Well, so much for that. The idea of getting a new kart game for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch does sound pretty tempting, though, and Transformed was quite the popular title when it released back in 2012. So there’s always a hopeful chance we’ll see the series return one day. Just…not for now, it seems.
So that leaves an interesting question – just what does Sega have planned as far as Sonic goes this year? We’ve already gotten not one but two games last year with Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces, so a sequel to one of those would probably come all too soon. Thus, the idea of a new Transformed game, somewhere in-between, sounds pretty good to us.
And there’s also been no response on that first-person shooter. What could it be? A new chapter in the long-lost Conduit series? Perhaps something new entirely? Neither Webber nor Sega is talking just yet, as they’re likely saving the reveal for E3 in a few months. Hopefully we’ll see just what the company has planned at that point – even if it’s not, sigh, the return of SART.
For now, we suggest checking out the original Transformed when you get a chance. It’s backward compatible on Xbox One, and also available for Xbox 360, PC, PlayStation 3 and Wii U. And it’s the most fun you’ll have with kart racing aside from Mario Kart 8.
