Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed is pretty terrific. And Team Fortress 2 is pretty terrific too. Today, Sega and Valve have announced a partnership that will result in a delicious peanut butter and jelly sandwich of mascot racing.

The upcoming PC version of Racing Transformed will include three characters from Valve's cartoony shooter: Pyro, Heavy, and Spy. But that's not all. There are other exclusive characters for the PC version.

The Shogun from Creative Assembly's Total War series and Manager Man from the Football Manager series will also be available in the game. The PC version will be available on January 31st. Here, take a look at the silliness of this mash-up:

        Imagine peoples' disappointment when they find out that the Engineer is the one from Train Simulator 2013.

      Aren't the TF2 characters in the Wii U version? Is that the same game? I bought it from GMG for $20, figures they'd have a pre-order promo on Steam.

      At 0:15 it says "3 New Characters Exclusive to PC"

      Team Fortress 2 isn't a character. Sounds like 11 new characters if it has the whole roster.

        They mentioned it only has Heavy, Pyro, and Spy, and I believe they are essentially one character. From the trailer it appears that who you see depends on the vehicle's form; Heavy drives the boat and Pyro the car so Spy must pilot the plane form.
