A New 3D Sonic Game From Sonic Team is Coming in 2022

Just in time for the new movie neXt year!

Hopefully this can make Sonic games relevant again. I would love to see him transition properly to modern gaming if possible.

 

[psylockolussus]

Given how successful Sonic the movie was, this is probably a guaranteed success unless it turns out to be a terrible game.

 

[Sithborg]

Definitely Sonic Colors 2.

I certainly hope so, it's been over a decade since Sonic had a genuinely good game that didn't use past successes as a crutch.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Hopefully it's good.

 

[The Caped Knight]

I'd love a sequel to Sonic Mania or better yet Sonic: Generations.

Open world Sonic with Adventure series atmosphere?

Can this thread's title be changed to Sonic Frontiers since the trailer was already out?

I do look forward to the new and inventive ways for them to make a bad Sonic game.

I'm guessing we'll still be stuck with the mindless "boost" feature instead of actual momentum.

Don't forget shoe-horning the Wisps in the game.

On the bright side, the open world design should prevent one of my biggest problems with Forces (and a lot of Sonic games in the last decade), the absurdly short levels.

Well, rumors point to the games "shrines" being little running levels.

Is there a chance Sonic could ever start emulating Mario’s quality and start catching up to him? I’d love for the 2 to be competing to help keep my childhood alive.

Post-Generations and Colors that was what it seemed like, but then Lost World (which had a run button instead of momentum) and Boom happened. Lost World wasn't as bad and I liked the idea of it. Forces kind of sealed it for me that they have no clue what to do with Sonic once he has a couple of good games.

Boi I had hope since I played the Adventure series (I like 1 over 2 fight me).

You win haha. I gave up a while back but I had the thought seeing the movie’s success might push devs to believe they can get back to the top again and get more resources.

I'm personally waiting to see what those mad lads who did Sonic Mania will come up with next.

I really feel like fan games like Mania, Utopia, SRB2, GT, Omens, etc. have been doing a much better job with Sonic, both in terms of replicating and building on what worked before and in terms of finding ways to try new things.

Has anyone tried to do anything with Utopia's engine to make a full game?
