Whenever a Classic Sonic game makes an appearance, one of the biggest questions that Sonic fans always asks is the accuracy of the physics. It hasn't helped that games like Sonic 4 and Sonic Forces have amplified the discourse on this topic. The good news is that, based on remarks by Christian Whitehead, Sonic Superstars is not looking like it will be joining that club. Sonic Mania's physics are fully translated into modern 3D!
Christian Whitehead's response came as a reaction to the Sonic fandom on Twitter comparing Sonic Superstars gameplay with the gameplay of the original classic trilogy. It is something that fans have been doing ever since the game was revealed. This comparisons have been very identical, and the hands-on impressions from media outlets have only made the optimism grow.
Of course, there's nothing more that can reassure Sonic fans that Sonic Mania physics are still around than one of the devs of Sonic Mania confirming that themselves. And, well, that's exactly what happened. No official word from SEGA or gameplay footage could really compete with that. It probably goes without saying either, but there are a lot of hardcore Sonic fans that are likely very happy to hear this news.
Whitehead does say that he'll "have more to say on this when its appropriate", so there may be some more information about the matter in the future. Said information will likely be shared on his Twitter, so if there's anything of note to share with you, we'll let you know. In the meantime, hardcore Sonic fans may be getting just as impatient as Sonic himself is in regards to this game! We'll just have to wait a little while longer when Sonic Superstars releases this fall.
