Announced at Summer Games Fest is a brand new Sonic game. SEGA is revisiting the world of classic Sonic for a new 2D game, with retro style gameplay. Sonic, Tails, Amy, and Knuckles are all playable, and the game features co-op as well. It's coming out in Fall 2023. Will be on Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox.

Looks great! I hope they speed up Sonics feet animation because it looks slower than Knuckles. I hope it's good!

Reminds me of Sonic Fan Remix.

 

[TobiasAmaranth]

That actually looks legit. Go figure. Wasn't a fan of Freedom Planet for some reason so I guess I'm looking forward to this..?

 

[KingVamp]

I really hope this other characters trend sticks. Anyway, Pac-Man squids?

Looks good. And seems to play ok, but let's hope for good gameplay.

I just noticed, of course they withheld a skin for sign up. Also, that "laugh" reminds me of Undertale.

[Kioku]

Interesting… This will be fun to play with my kids!

 

[Latiodile]

inb4 the physics are akin to generations/forces

 

[Xzi]

Should be free for anyone unfortunate enough to have bought Origins. Looks good though.

Sega: please keep us alive.

It looks fantastic. My jaw was on the floor. I totally didn't expect this. I love the style, character models, animations, level aesthetics, pitch and general look and feel, music is... Ok?

Physics actually look pretty good and the ramps and momentum seem comparable to "classic Sonic" but there are a few speed boosters on ramps where there shouldn't necessarily need to be.

Really excited to learn more about this and hope they've learned their lessons with Generations classic and Sonic 4. Of course, I'd much rather see a Mania 2 but I'll definitely take this. It's the route they should have taken decades ago.

All in all, really impressed and dying to learn more!

Edit: Also, apparently Naoto Ohshima is onboard serving as character designer so that's pretty fucking cool!

Based on that trailer alone, has the makings of the best Sonic game in years.
