Sega is proud to announce the first batch of post-release content for their Mario Kart knock-off, Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing. The DLC offers a distinct Sega flavor for your Microsoft avatar, including memorabilia from such Sega gems as Billy Hatcher’s helmet and Samba De Amigo’s sombrero.


This first piece of DLC fashion may appear to just be a leather jacket, but take a closer look and you may recognize it as Ryo Hazuki’s jacket from Shenmue. It can be yours for 160 MS points.

Here’s the full list of DLC garb:

Dr. Eggman Glasses (80 MS points)
Eggman’s awesome mirrored glasses.
Crabmeat Prop (240 MS points)
The classic Green Hill Zone badnik.

Your avatar can wear it on its head.
AiAi T-shirt (80 MS points)
He already graces your Chiquita bananas, so why not your avatar?
AiAi Monkey Ball Prop (240 MS points)
You can own a monkey in a ball.
