Sonic Mania to have "competition mode"
Sonic Mania is releasing in a week, and hype and excitement are reaching a fever pitch, as the release date draws ever closer. In efforts that seem purely like agonizingly teasing fans further, SEGA has uploaded another trailer, this time, about the fact that the classic styled split screen 2 player mode is back.
Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles are all playable characters in Sonic Mania’s Competition Mode. Winners are determined by a few factors: clear time, score, number of items acquired, number of rings acquired when clearing the level, and total number of rings acquired throughout the level. Players can adjust the rules of each match by adjusting items in the item boxes and number of rounds that take place.
Sonic Mania will release on August 15th, for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.
