The official U.S. website for Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing has just gone LIVE and in the All Star Moves section there is an icon for each characters All Star Move with their name underneath. Flick through and you come to an icon with the name Jacky from Virtua Fighter tagged underneath. It appears Jacky will be playable with Akira as his All Star Move.
The Characters section is closed off right now so could this be a mistake on SEGA’s part?
Downloadable characters are also listed to be coming too as an Xbox 360 exclusive.
That was a lot of characters confirmed today
1 character down, 3 more to go 😉
Wait, there’s more…
When I checked on the site a few minutes ago you could access the All Star Moves page, where they not only refence to an All Star Move for Jacky, but also for Beat and another fellow called Zobio Zobinko. Don’t ask me who that is, I have no clue.
I still don’t see Ristar in there, or NIGHTS and Vectorman for that matter. 🙁
Let’s hope they somehow slide in or make a apperance somewhere in the game.
Or maybe SoA made a mistake, I don’t know…
Zobio Zobinko are the House of the Dead characters
But yes looks like we have confirmation on Beat 🙂
I’M FASTER THAN LIGHTNING.
Ahhhh, judging by that icon I wonder if it’s the Virtua Fighter Kid version that makes it into the game?
A quick sweep of Google revealed these pictures:

If you ask me, the character section isn’t open because they don’t want the fans using their 1337 haxxorz skillz and find out who the remaining players are.
Also, I’m fairly certain Beat was confirmed a while ago.
Nintendo did the exact same thing with Smash Bros. Releasing 3 (instead of 1) characters pictures.
The only difference is that when it happened, it was actually an honest mistake, unlike Sega’s recent (intentional) blunders.
May as well knock off a Golden Axe character

Steve Lycett just de-confirmed my post.
“But yes looks like we have confirmation on Beat”
Beat already appeared like in 3 trailers, I though he was confirmed long time ago D:
Me being a bit slow on that front then, must’ve just slipped!
I suppose I was slow catching that news too. Sorry for any confusion.
…I’m still waiting to see who else made the cut though.
I wanna Jack caiman
Jacky has made it in. I wonder if he’ll use Akira as his all-star move is true.
Anyone else notice that the trailer music, and all the music featured on the website, is ripped straight from the Sonic Adventure games?
Crap, I guess they don’t care about PS3’s… Where’s the love?!
The rest of the characters have been leaked. Check TSSZ. But don’t leave any comments. That just encourages them.
