SEGA has released "ONSOKU WO KOETE" (lyrics: Eitaro Toyoda, music: Jun Senoue, arrangement: Yunosuke) on YouTube — a Japanese-language arrangement of "Speed Is My Life" (lyrics: Tee Lopes, music: Jun Senoue), the anniversary song composed to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
The Japanese-language arrangement brings in Yunosuke, a sound producer and composer-arranger who has drawn attention for his cutting-edge sound production, while virtual singer Hatsune Miku provides the vocals.
In addition, the Chinese-language arrangement "Here We Go ~ Run to the Future" has also been released simultaneously. The Chinese version was produced and performed by virtual artist 泠鸢yousa.
All language versions of the anniversary song have been added to the in-game jukebox in the currently available title Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, allowing players to enjoy them as in-game BGM during races right away. Music videos have also been released, and download and streaming distribution has begun on all major platforms.
