Nintendo of Europe and SEGA of Europe have today confirmed that they have entered into a new distribution agreement for the forthcoming Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice scheduled to release exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems across Europe this Winter. Under the terms of the agreement Nintendo of Europe will be responsible for the sales, marketing and distribution of the game throughout European territories, with SEGA of Europe remaining as publisher.

The iconic 'blue blur,' Sonic the Hedgehog, will be racing once again in Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice as the game introduces more adventure, speed, exploration, and an all-new fire and ice gameplay element that will help propel the action. The game will also feature the triumphant return of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Sticks.

Developed by Sanzaru Games Inc., Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice is a single player game with collaborative gameplay components that shares key characters, events, and lore of the Sonic Boom universe.

When most people dig themselves into a giant hole, their first idea is to get out.

Sega?
Naw they put on miner hats and just keep on goin'.

They're hoping to strike gold. Can't really strike gold without going in deep.

 

[VinsCool]

Yay for more glitches. I like broken games.

The Boom cartoon is decent. The old cartoons, are what? Adventures, which was Looney Tunes without all the wit and humor, and SATAM, which was very good, but I'm not so sure Sega would want to produce a darker kind of Sonic series, after the mess of 06/Shadow/Etc. There's also Sonic Underground, I guess...that...was a thing...

 

[DJPlace]

i liked the sonic comic cartoon the best. after hearing about DR.R and those PINGA's Jokes let's say i'm going drop kick something...

 

[Bladexdsl]

they just don't learn do they....

 

[the_randomizer]

How does "no" sound? The last one sucked big time.

 

[Sora de Eclaune]

Can they not? Is there a petition to ask them to stop making it and put that effort, time, and money into something else worth making?

 

[Trolling]

So, Big Red Button Entertainment is dead?
Well Shattered Crystal was better then Rise of lyric, so maybe Sanzaru games can make something decent.

 

[LittleFlame]

I'm honestly not sure if i should laugh or cry.. no seriously i can't

 

[Prior22]

I'd like another Sonic RPG. Chronicles, other than the puzzle elements, was halfway decent.

 

[wolf-snake]

Well this make sense, Shattered Crystal was an enjoyable game but it was flawled, i mean at least this one has boss fights. This game has potential to be a pretty good game and i don't see why people are getting so butthurt over this... Oh wait i do see why, because they are so closed minded.

I wouldn't say close-minded, I'd say after all the Sonic games that have crashed and burned, no one has much hope for anything Sonic related.

 

[Deleted User]

So is this gonna be like Rise of Lyric or Shattered Crystal in terms of gameplay? I really liked Rise of Lyric (well, the demo at least, I haven't gotten on to buying it yet)

 

[XDel]

They should have stopped at Sonic CD and the Sonic Adventure Games. Everything since then has been redundant.
