Sonic and Hatsune Miku's Project ONSOKU Launches

In an exciting fusion of gaming and music, SEGA has announced a special project titled "Project ONSOKU," where the beloved character Sonic the Hedgehog collaborates with the famed virtual singer Hatsune Miku. This groundbreaking initiative combines the worlds of music and gaming, and fans can expect a series of original songs and music videos, all set to be released weekly leading up to the launch of the highly anticipated game, Sonic Racing Cross Worlds.

What to Expect from Project ONSOKU

The project will feature five unique tracks created by a talented lineup of five artists. Each of these songs will not only be shared with the public but will also be integrated into Sonic Racing Cross Worlds, which is scheduled for release on September 25, 2025, across various platforms including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Kicking off the series is the debut song titled "Most Beloved Life Runner," composed by the extraordinarily gifted Kairiki Bear. This track is now available for streaming as of August 28, 2025. Fans eagerly awaiting the game can enjoy this song and build excitement for the upcoming release.

Kairiki Bear, known for their thought-provoking lyrics and melodies, expressed their enthusiasm for the project. "When I first encountered Sonic, the rush and thrill inspired me to pack that excitement into this track. I hope listeners feel that rush, as if they are on a roller coaster ride with the sound of the wind in their ears! If the song makes something inside you start to run, then that's the finish line I've set for myself. I’m thrilled to share this unique experience with everyone!"

Collaboration Events

In conjunction with the launch of Project ONSOKU, SEGA will be participating in the upcoming Hatsune Miku "Magical Mirai 2025" event at the Tokyo venue. From August 29 to August 31, attendees can visit the SEGA booth to experience collaborative art and grab some exclusive merchandise, including a postcard featuring beautiful illustrations by artist Nou.
