Project Sonic 2017 officially named Sonic Forces, first gameplay trailer



Following the announcement of Sonic Mania's delay, SEGA has revealed their other Sonic game to the public, now titled Sonic Forces. The gameplay returns to a Generations/Colors/Unleashed style format, forgoing other, newer, gameplay styles that were attempted in Lost World and Boom. Sonic Forces is set to launch "holiday 2017" for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

have you tried the Sonic Utopia Fangame?
still Alpha though .....


I play it. I really love it!

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Love how people already take a dump on it after only seeing 30 seconds of gameplay... gameplay style, whatever on youtube and etc.
This is obviously still in early developement, Sonic doesn't even have a Idle Animation yet. Sonic Generations' GHZ started like this too but got open more later.

And again, this is only 1 of 3 Gameplay styles, if you don't like it, rush through it and enjoy the other 2.
They used Sonic Lost World's idle probably as a placeholder for the new idle they might add.

The last time they tried a Sonic Adventure-like game, we got 06. Seriously, those games were good at the time, but they're very outdated and mediocre at best nowadays.
That wasn't the kind of thing i mean, i meant like MORE dreamcast based. That game was no where near gonna be good enough since it wasn't developed properly.

I was talking about like having multiple characters, mini games, missions, emblems and chao garden. Not a mediocre story and additional characters that seem meaningless. That game could be fixed but they didn't bother with having splitting the game into two development teams.

Well I'm just really glad, to say the least, that they reverted back to the Unleashed/Generations formula, and not beating the dead horse again where Sonic Boom or anything like that is concerned...
I very much enjoyed that 30-second clip; a great balance of good-quality gameplay, visuals, and speed, just as a Sonic game should have. None of that risky, experimental stuff they attempted with Lost World or the Boom series.

I can't wait to see what's next for this! :)

There's nothing wrong with some risky experimental stuff every once in a while - we wouldn't have gotten a lot of fantastic games without it.

Well, the visuals are great. Too bad you can't really pay much attention to them as you're speeding through the stage. I'll be keeping a wary eye on it, as I haven't enjoyed a single 3D sonic title ever thus far.
Well, give Lego Sonic a try. I'd love to play Lego Sonic but there's just too much damn stuff I'd have to purchase in order to play it.

I hate people that criticize a game that's in early development; give it a chance. But, by the looks of it. It feels unfinished, but good thus far. I hope they make it more like Generations. Hell, it might be running a version of the Hedgehog Engine; which would be great for modders. Whom could port over levels from Generations, or Unleashed. If that's so (If it's the same Engine) then I'll be even happier, that engine is such an amazing, and well developed game engine for Sonic.

It just looks like more Generations, which isn't a bad thing, but I would've liked to see Sonic try 3D again. I think that despite it's flaws Sonic Adventure(not 2) is pretty alright. I know 06 and Boom(which was made by some other company) exist but after the shit storm that was last gen Sonic, I think theyve learned what works and what doesn't.

The Developer (Mr. Lange) is a friend of mine so i can confirm
It's still being worked on, just slow due to other projects.

I guess it's too difficult for sega to make a game that is like sonic adventure 1 and 2 in this day and age.

Doesn't look appealing at all :/
How are you supposed to even play this without having the map in your head -.- its just randomly pressing some buttons until you either die or win

Didn't like any of the newer sonic games, the old 2d ones were awesome but now...

That fan game actually looks much better than all the new 3d sonic games I have seen.
Looks much more playable
