Sega is giving Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds players a free Blue Star Extreme Gear hoverboard for a limited time.

The giveaway runs through October 30, 2025, and requires linking a SEGA account to the platform where you play. You can redeem the offer via the Sega Rewards page, and the content will appear in-game after you complete the steps. Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds launched on September 25 and is available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC; more details are on the official game site.

What the free DLC includes

The reward is the Blue Star Extreme Gear, a hoverboard long associated with Sonic Riders. Once redeemed, it shows up under the game’s Boost section of the gear collection.

How to claim the Blue Star Extreme Gear

  • Go to Sega Rewards and find the Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds reward card.
  • Select “Claim Your Reward.”

  • Follow the instructions to redeem the code on your platform store.
  • Launch the game; the Blue Star Extreme Gear appears in the Boost section of your gear collection.

Availability and platform binding

The free DLC is tied to a single platform per SEGA account. If you want the Blue Star on multiple platforms, you’ll need a separate SEGA profile for each one.

Context and upcoming add-ons

Sega is leaning into series nostalgia with this freebie and has also confirmed a Mega Man crossover DLC for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, with timing still to be announced. Beyond this promotion, Sega’s Rewards page currently hosts additional freebies for other games, all claimable with a SEGA account.

If you’re already racing, this is a straightforward pick-up; if you’re new, it’s an easy way to add a classic board once you link your account.
