  • 2D Animation Returns! First Look at Sonic Superstars Intro Video and Title Screen

    Sweet action sequences, and Multiplication!

    If you've been a fan of the prior 2D animation projects in Sonic Mania, Sonic Origins, and others, get excited, because Sonic Superstars has its own sequences! Our man-with-the-camera over on the show floor this week snagged a clip of the start screen, and the full intro cinematic! You can check it out here:

    The video includes a number of known aspects, like Fang, the multiplication power, and some weird robot armor dude? Is this our new antagonist?

    Beyond that, the intro features plenty of action from the cast as Tails and the Tornado catch Sonic mid-fall while Knuckles and Amy bash Badniks in a carnival.

    We'll continue to share fresh footage throughout our Summer Game Fest coverage, so stay tuned!

    I just wonder if there is a theme music like in Sonic CD or if there is no theme music like in Mania?

    All the animated intros we've gotten over the last 5/6 years look great.

    Wonder if Powerhouse Studio's who made Origins cutscenes have also worked on Superstars?

    Just a heads up that @Jason the Jackassis currently at SGF as well on the show floor, and he’s taking videos and photos as we speak! :ok:

    Does he have to sign up to play the game beforehand like with Sonic Frontiers last year? LOL

    Anyway, here is the title screen in motion.

    I am wondering who that character is in particular. Boy, I am excited to find out about that character whenever we learn more about them!

    That character looks like they're either a robot themselves or just masquerading as one.

    The intro gives me Sonic X  / Tomba vibes weirdly enough lol. Still super super clean tho. Interesting how "slimmed out" these classic iterations are for the intro.

    I'm guessing the robot headed person is the new oshima character?

    They've got typical organic-looking Sonic arms and a furry tail, so I guess they're just heavily armoured.  I think we can reasonably assume they'll have that helmet knocked off at some point.  Intriguing!

    Part of me wonders if their identity is hidden because they're secretly a character we're familiar with.

    Ayyyye we Gex now. The water climb to explore different routes is hella cute.

    Glad to see the Drop Dash back again

    Also. the Physics™ lookin solid from what I can tell. Loosing and then picking up speed through a loop as you should. Sonic running backwards like before instead if coming into a complete halt. I just need them halfway loop jumps to really see if we're back. Rolling doesn't look broken too.

    I dunno if this is the real music for the scene, but here is a little something.

    I love that Intro music to Sonic Superstars If It Is the real music to the game Intro. The animation style Is just amazing I'm just getting 90s vibes from the Sonic OVA movie by watching the Intro here.

    I really hope that Sonic Superstars does really well for the game reviews when It comes out this year. I am so looking forward to playing the game It's going to be another great year for Sonic again.

    Sonic's fingerwag is the perfect version of what the sonic 4 finger wag was trying to do. 

     

    I love it
