A French video hosting website has posted a trailer of what appears to be the third Sonic title exclusive Nintendo. It’s based off the new CG cartoon series Sonic Boom.

Confirmed characters are Sonic, Knuckles, Amy and Tails, all showing off their new looks. From watching the trailer it has a very Sonic Heroes feel – each character has their own unique abilities, however segments show all characters on screen in the level at once.

The game is not being made by Sonic Team, but instead being co-developed by Sanzaru (Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time) and Big Red Button Entertainment (former developers of Naughty Dog).

Personally, I am hyped. Finally a Sonic game with more playable characters than Sonic and made by a slightly less crappy studio. Let's hope it's not another Sonic Cycle again or there will be a BOOM by the fans... I'll shut up now.

*Looks at the absolutely terrible art style, especially at Knuckles who looks as if he fell in Bane's steroids tank* ...okay, I'm going to grab this length of rope now, give me a minute. If you'll be looking for me, I'm going to hang out in the barn for a while... please don't follow me, give me... say... 15 minutes for myself... I need to sort something out.

This really doesn't look bad (gameplay wise), I dunno why people keep bringing up the sonic cycle when it got busted awhile back. Is it because Lost world's was very very middle of the road? :/

On the trailer itself, some of it looks weird xD specifically 24 seconds in when the camera is panning around them. Sonic looks really shiny for some reason. the redesigns will most certainly take getting use to.

I don't think it's THAT bad, really. Sonic looks a bit off, Knuckles is... cringeworthy at the very least and the choice of music is debatable, but the overall art style seems okay. It reminds me a lot of Ratchet & Clank.

Oh good, because it's not supposed to, it's supposed to remind you of Sonic. It looks terribad, only Tails looks okay out of the lot. :)

OH MY GOD I can't believe what they did to Sonic... they gave him a NEW DESIGN STYLE instead of the same design used for 30 years. I'm so upset that I'm shitting all over myself.
>Implying that Sonic used the same style over the course of those 30 years

ilman Your post has been re-formatted to frontpage standards - hope you don't mind. Replaced the french trailer with an english one, courtesy of Ryupower - kudos! :)

Whats wrong with the Character Models?
Whats wrong with the Music?
Whats wrong with the Gamepla.. wait, no, that actually looked interesting.

But really, who designed these new character models?
Also Bangarang is so old. I am really sceptical about this game.
