SEGA has just revealed another trio of characters for its upcoming co-op kart racer, Team Sonic Racing. As you can see, Team Eggman features three of the hedgehog's adversaries -- Zavok (a villain from Sonic Lost World almost no one will recognise), Metal Sonic, and of course, Dr Eggman himself.
As with the rest of the roster, each character is assigned a class. Dr Eggman is a Technique character, Metal Sonic is obviously the Speed demon, and Zavok is this team's Heavy. Combining abilities and swapping weapons is key to Team Sonic Racing's gameplay, so it's nice to see these villains playing by the rules.
The game is due out on 21st May. Will you be using Team Eggman to chase down Sonic and his primary colour pals? Drive each other mad in the comments below.

Thank you for explaining who Zavok is.
@get2sammyb You're welcome.
Yeah, I was wondering who Zavoc was. And from this pic, I don’t like this character.
I can see this getting destroyed by CTR. I think they’ve made an Onrush style mistake with their gameplay. I’ll keep an eye on the review though and hopefully be surprised as I do love a cart racer!
@Quintumply A) Sonic Lost World isn't exclusive ;p
B) Also in Sonic Forces on PS4, Xbox One, PC and Switch.
So er...yep.
And um...cool I guess?
Wonder which will be better for old school Mario Kart fans. Team Sonic Racing or Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled?
Zavok has a ponytail and a convertible. He's clearly going through a mid-life crisis
Zavok looks like a Deviantart piece from a pre-teen that made an OC based on Skylanders.
Zavok is awful, why do they keep shoving him down our throats? He should have been replaced with Chaos
Zavok actually makes sense in the context of the Speed/Power/Tech dynamic they have going on with the characters, so I think it's a fine choice for that slot in the villain team.
@Knuckles-Fajita You’re right. I’ve edited the article to reflect this. Apologies!
@Quintumply That's....yeah that's more accurate.
I forgot Lost World was on PC too. XXD
@FinneasGH Hope not. CTR was / is one of my most played games. But Sonic Allstars Transformed just had so many good things in it that I liked that better. Im afriend that many ppl will just play the new CTR and said its better without trying Sonic. I just hope that Sonic doesn't do as u said they might do. (The Onrush thing) Cos its kinda hard to call Onruch a racering game :/ (Sadly i dont like many of the Sonic characters)
@Knuckles-Fajita I always forget whether Zavok was really in Sonic Forces, or whether he was just an illusion created by Infinite (like that whale-sized Metal Sonic you fight on the Golden Gate Bridge).
Then I remember that I've got other things to worry about.
Like, y'know... everything.
