Reviewers mostly criticized the gameplay, controls, and overall design while praise was directed at the game's visual style, soundtrack and sense of speed while racing. Sonic Riders was released to mixed reviews from critics, but was a commercial success and was later re-released under the GameCube and PlayStation 2 bestseller lines.
Sonic Riders was also the last Sonic title produced with the involvement of franchise co-creator Yuji Naka, who acted as executive producer and left Sega shortly after its release. It was designed to appeal to fans of Sonic as well as extreme sports video games the development team did not take inspiration from any prior games. Sonic Team wanted to make their own game that was superior to any previous Sonic racing game. The game was produced in commemoration of the Sonic series' 15th anniversary and was the first Sonic racing game since the 1997 Traveller's Tales game Sonic R.
