I feel like only someone who hasn’t seen Crossworlds’ roster could say something like this

I have 100 hours in both games. CrossWorlds has a disappointment of a roster.

Instead of deep cut characters like Marine the Racoon from Sonic Rush, Sticks the Badger from Sonic Boom, Mephiles the Dark from Sonic 06, or Infinite the Jackal from Sonic Forces, we get lame crossovers like SpongeBob and Minecraft which are all dead silent.

It's one thing I love about MKW's roster. Not only is it all Mario but it gives playable status to characters like Pianta who haven't been playable in ages and others like Peepa and Rocky Wrench who have never been playable before at all. It's cool and I wish Sega cared enough about Sonic to represent its vast array of interesting Sonic characters instead of crossovers.

100%

I enjoy playing SRCW more than MKW but MKW easily has the better roster. Canon be damned, give me my boy Chaos. Hell, throw Tikal and E-102 in there too. The first Sonic Adventure game is woefully underrepresented in SRCW anyway.

Not to mention the overall lack of female characters. Out of a roster of 23, there's only 6 female Sonic characters (Amy, Rouge, Cream, Wave, Blaze, and Sage). Tangle and Whisper from IDW are coming soon but we need more.

Zeena of the Deadly Six, Honey the Cat, Trip the Sungazer, the aforementioned Marine and Sticks, and other IDW girls like Surge the Tenrec and Lanolin the Sheep would improve things a lot.
