PROPER INTRODUCTION POST SOON


New Sonic game coming for Xbox One, PS4, and Wii U. Also several other news but I'll squeeze that for another topic if someone wants to make it, regarding the CGI film and animated series. It looks like Sonic is going to be much more active again. Surprised that nobody beat me to posting this.

Toy maker Jazwares revealed at the Nuremberg toy fair that Sega is busy developing a brand new Sonic game for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Wii U for 2015. Sega still has a Sonic game in production for Nintendo platforms, so it’s unknown at this point whether the exclusivity still holds. Either way, the new Sonic game will be coming to the three platforms sometime during 2015.

I'm not sure if this is the same thing. Not sure if I should rename the topic. Hrm.

Knuckles is weirdly different but fine I think. Everyone else looks really rad though!

Well looks good, though this almost looks like a-

*Sees the gameplay*

...



Well. At least they kept with the trend. I certainly was not expecting this.

At least the others get a playable role this time. XD

EDIT

Also, as a dubstep fan, while its not my thing, the trailers music sounded good.

Skrillex made me cringe. Really, there's better dubstep out there.

Not sure if it's the same thing either, but we'll see.

So Sonic's arms turned blue and Knuckles is on sterioids and has fingers. I like Amy and Tails' design though.

It's said that the whole franchise is getting a redesign. This is supposed to be a reboot, after all.

Gameplay looks fine though, character models look... awful.

2014: The Year of Sonic, it's happening.

I think the character models look great personally. Knuckles is different but not bad. Sonic looks badass with that tape. (In that link is Sega's official explanation in the blog post. Honestly has me excited. This might be the most excited I been for a Sonic game in a while).

Also, apparently I read the people handling this instead of Sonic team are the ones who developed Sly 4? Should be exciting then. But hrm... should I rename this topic to Sonic Boom then? It's definitely the third exclusive Sonic / Nintendo exclusive game. Not sure if it's related to this or that poster really is a slip-up that's not true at all.

UNLIKE SONIC I DON'T CHUCKLE, I'D RATHER FLEX MY MUSCLES.

You can rename it if you want, though I'd wait to there's more info out. Might just be a TV show/game combination, and a 'real' next gen game will be announced soon?

EDIT: SEGA just posted that this game is Wii U and 3DS only. Oops.

I'm really REALLY digging this.. Looks like I will be getting BOTH the Ps4 and WiiU for the sake of Sonic!
Nobius Chronicles
This will be renamed to Halfbreed Inflictions when I get the ability to do so.

Comment and tell me what needs improvement. I want to become a professional writer when I goto college!

I'm willing to give this a shot, even if they changed Knuckles to a less familiar form. Speaking of which, why did they do that?

Here's the one of Eggman

Looks like Eggman will have more broader rounder shoulders, like his old design.

And multiple playable characters definitely confirmed. I'm actually really excited for this. Sure been a while.

@Mellow: It's the third Nintendo exclusive Sonic game so no PS4. I'll rename the topic after more details come.

Color me surprised, I'm loving it so far.

My bet on why they changed Knuckles, is because they wanted to make him seem stronger. Knuckles has always been the tough character but never had a body type that made him any different from Tails or Sonic. They also gave him fingers. Eggman is also thinner and Sonic has a much friendlier look. Possibly to be more 'childfriendly'.
Sonic Boom is not canon!

I wouldn't say nnoncanon. They said it's more of a new different branch for Sonic.

Oh Gods, I forgot about Eggman. I can only imagine what kind of redesign hes getting(Provided he does appear). Perhaps his egg-shape body will be even more exaggerated. A worser scenario is if he turned into Baron Harkonnen in terms of fat.

Sanzaru is only doing the 3DS version, fyi. As for the new designs? Why did they give Knuckles fingers? That was dumb. I'm ok with them but this reminds me of when they changed Crash Bandicoot's design to be "cooler"... As for the game, if it's not like Lost World I'd be interested but I don't have high hopes for a game that's a TV tie in and not by Sonic Team.
