As the days draw closer to the release of the Knuckles show, more and more Sonic games are getting in on the cross promotion frenzy. Last weekend, Sonic Speed Simulator got first dibs in introducing Movie Knuckles and the gang into their game. Now it's SEGA Hardlight's turn!
The Sonic mobile game devs tweeted out a tease showing off three new characters arriving to not just Sonic Forces Mobile, but Sonic Dash too! Meet Series Knuckles, Drummer Cream and the long overdue Metal Sonic 3.0!
This isn't the first time Movieverse Knuckles arrived in Forces or Dash, but this is SERIES Knuckles, sporting his famous treasure hunting cap!
But let's not rule out Metal 3.0, who has been making quite the resurgence lately in his appearances! He is not only in Sonic Speed Simulator, but he also got his own merch in the Jakks Pacific product line! Now he makes the jump to not one, but two mobile games! Not bad for a recolor that only appeared in Sonic Rivals 2, no?
Hardlight also tweeted out the release dates for all three characters so you know just when to log in and start running!
Series Knuckles: April 26th
Drummer Cream: May 13th
Metal Sonic 2.0: May 20th
No word on if these characters will also show up in Sonic Prime Dash or Sonic Dash+ , but chances are Drummer Cream and Metal 3.0 will arrive sooner or later. Movie characters don't seem to be in these alternative versions however.
On top of the official announcements, an additional character was spotted in a recent datamine: Pyromancer Blaze! A more mystical take on the fiery cat, she looks to be an addition to this sub series of new roleplay inspired alts starting with Paladin Amy.
What do you think of this new lineup of racers? Looking to collect them all?
UPDATE:
It has come to our attention that Series Knuckles will only show up ONCE in Speed Battle and never again. The same will probably apply to Sonic Dash as well. As of writing, the events are ongoing for both games. Please participate and unlock these characters now if you wish to ever have them.
