During a panel at SXSW today, SEGA unveiled a new customization feature for Team Sonic Racing.

Here’s what we know:

The Sonic the Hedgehog panel from SXSW 2019 will be kicking off not too long from now. The fun starts at 11 AM PT / 2 AM PT / 6 PM in the UK / 7 PM in Europe.

Fortunately, the panel will be live streamed, and you can watch the event as it happens below. At the very least, we should be hearing about Team Sonic Racing and the upcoming Sonic movie. It’s unclear if anything brand new will be shown, but if there is, we’ll have it on the site assuming it’s Nintendo-related.

The third and final wave of online finals for the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate North America Open 2019 tournament will be held today. For those that are interested, all of the matches can be watched through the live stream below.

Note that this is the final wave of online finals before the ultimate final tournament at PAX East 2019. The winners of today’s final will join the winners of the first and second online event finals in the PAX Arena at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center on March 30. Moreover, the collective winners from each region will form teams to play Squad Strike in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at the PAX East finals.

Limited Run Games has announced a partnership with Nitrome to produce a physical version of Bomb Chicken. Pre-orders open on March 29 at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET.

In many cases, Limited Run Games opts to offer a collector’s edition of their releases. With Bomb Chicken though, that won’t be happening. Only a standard version of the game is planned.
