MSI and SEGA are teaming up for a new game bundle that fans might want to check out. Starting September 26, 2025, anyone who buys a qualifying MSI Claw A8 handheld will get a free digital copy of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds for PC. The offer runs until October 31 and is available while supplies last.
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is SEGA’s latest entry in the Sonic racing series. Players race across land, sea, air, and space, jumping between dimensions using Travel Rings.
You can play solo or with others, both offline and online. There’s a wide range of customization options, where vehicles, gadgets, and power-ups play a role in how you race.
The game features 23 Sonic characters, the largest lineup in any Sonic racing title. SEGA also designed a special MSI-themed race car just for this collaboration, featuring MSI’s colors and logo.
The MSI Claw A8 is built for portable gaming. It has an 8-inch FHD+ IPS touch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 100% sRGB coverage.
Inside, it runs on an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor and Radeon 890M graphics. It comes with 24GB LPDDR5x RAM and up to 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD storage. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, plus two Thunderbolt 4 ports, a microSD slot, and an audio jack.
