It’s Sonic’s 30th birthday today and what better way to celebrate it than booting up a Nintendo Switch and playing Minecraft with the freshly released Sonic DLC on it?
Minecraft Sonic DLC is a fast-paced 3D racing game filled with iconic locations and familiar villains. Its gameplay is quite nostalgic, sure to remind alumni of the bygone Sonic the Hedgehog game series.
However, all the fun and frenzy of the DLC can only be enjoyed if it works properly. As it stands, Minecraft Sonic DLC currently suffers from several bugs, including freezing and dropping frames, indicating a lack of optimization.
Okay, so far playing the new Sonic DLC for Minecraft on Switch is a nightmare. It keeps freezing because the levels are still loading. Maybe I should buy a copy for my Xbox One and play it.

For anyone else who got this dlc on the switch, is it extremely buggy for you? so far i have had constant frost, the pitch takes a long time to load and half the time the ‘course’ goal ring does not appear. I wanted to know if this affects anyone else. Thank you!

As emerges from the above complaints, the freezing issues on the Minecraft Sonic DLC appear to be related to the extremely slow terrain load times.

An ETA for a fix was not given, but Mojang said the affected team are currently working to release one as soon as possible.
