Sega finally made things official with Sonic's future. They made a little event called "Sonic Central" (yes, like that Sonic Central..) and showed a bunch stuff to celebrate Sonic's 30th Anniversary.
A new compilation, a remaster of a (random) not quite so old-older game, crossover stuff and a tease for the upcoming new non-Anniversary game, since it will now come out next year, 2022.
They officialized the remaster of Sonic Colors! A new port of Colors from 2010, coming on sep 7 on PS4, Switch, etc. Calling it Ultimate certainly means more content, right? I'd love a re-take on the story and new voice overs to make it closer in tone to past Sonic games instead of the last few-childish tone of the series...
There's gonna be new Sonic Colors-inspired short cartoons, like most recent games have received. Which makes Sonic Colors more relevant than ever, giving weird theories that Sega want to pursue Sonic Colors' "story"...
A new collection, Sonic Origins, which will bring the smartphone ports of Sonic 1, 2, CD along Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Can they add some actual surprises? Each new compilation has had less and less games since Sonic Mega Collection/Gems Collection.. How about Chaotix? SegaSonic?
Lots of crossover Sonic-themed content to a bunch of games including Two Point Hospital and Lost Judgement (the new Yakuza-style game from Sega).
The Mario-less Sega’s Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.
Roger Craig Smith returning to continue voicing Sonic again.
And finally..
A little tease for Sonic's upcoming big new (3D?) game. People have been loving the tease. Thinking Sonic Adventure 1 remake etc. But me, personally, this gives me weird vibes of a Sonic Colors sequel (wisps and boost energy-inspired effects) MIXED with the old Sonic 2006 "realistic forest run" vibes...
Wait and see...
