Sonic Racing CrossWorlds: How to Unlock Werehog
Sonic the Werehog is one of the bonus characters in Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, and is linked to pre-order and deluxe content but still requires a simple in-game trigger to show up on your roster. Here’s how to unlock him properly.
How to Unlock Werehog in Sonic Racing CrossWorlds
Sonic the Werehog is included as a pre-order bonus and is also bundled in the Digital Deluxe edition. If you have either version, you do not need to buy additional DLC.
To activate him, complete at least one Grand Prix after installing the content. Once the cup is cleared, the game registers the bonuses and unlocks Werehog alongside Hatsune Miku, gadgets, and the Cyborg Team.
He will then appear on the character select screen with his vehicle, the Beast Spike.
Troubleshooting Unlock Issues
If Sonic the Werehog does not appear after finishing a Grand Prix, restart the game. In some cases, reinstalling or switching to a proper copy (not shared through family library) may be required for the unlock to process. This issue is common when using Steam’s family library or if the content is not linked directly to your own purchase.
Once fixed, the character unlocks instantly and stays available on your account.
Final Blurb
To unlock Sonic the Werehog in Sonic Racing CrossWorlds, purchase the pre-order or Digital Deluxe edition, then complete one Grand Prix. This triggers the bonus unlocks and adds Werehog and his Beast Spike vehicle to the roster.
If he does not appear, restart or reinstall the game to resolve the issue.
