  1. There has been rumors of a remake of Sonic Generations for a few days now, and they have only gotten more interesting as we found out that there's going to be some bonus Shadow content. Well, it's not a rumor anymore. SEGA has officially announced Sonic X Shadow Generations! The announcement, which was made in Sony's new State of Play presentation, didn't have anything shocking if you knew of the rumors. But there was still plenty of things that Shadow fans, and especially Sonic Adventure era fans, are able to gush over. In fact, Shadow, not Modern and Clasic Sonic, was the main star of this trailer. The vast majority of the trailer featured his campaign. And speaking of his campaign, "a brand-new story" awaits with Shadow. We didn't get to see many levels, but we did get some footage of what looks to be Final Chase. We also got to see the return of Black Doom and Biolizard, both of which seem to be bosses that Shadow will have to fight. However, SEGA didn't really reveal anything else, so we'll probably see more of Shadow's campaign in the coming months. So, when will we be able to play this? Well, SEGA confirmed that it will be releasing on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, Xbox One and PC this autumn. It's more than likely that we will learn more about the game in the coming months, so make sure you stick with us as we cover what is very obviously going to be another busy year for Sonic fans!

  2. Well, Sonic Generations is finally being remastered for modern platforms, with completely new Shadow content to boot. While surely exciting for most Sonic fans, this release comes with a massive potential downside for hardcore Sonic community: the loss of the original Sonic Generations PC port, and the hundreds of mods the community has made for it over the past decade. While not a guarantee, it’s not uncommon for companies to delist older, cheaper versions of a game they’ve made a remaster of. So, before it’s too late, I thought I’d write this open letter to SEGA with a simple request: please don’t delist Sonic Generations’ original port from Steam! The Sonic community has invested a lot of time and energy into Sonic Generations mods. From patches that help the game run better, to new characters and Sonic skins, to physics mods, to entirely new levels, the sheer volume of the game’s mods are extensive. There's even a mod that utilizes a Mario 64 ROM (that you have to source yourself) to insert Mario into Sonic Generations, complete with that game's physics. Generations has long been popular with the modding community, and some of my favorite Sonic mods in any given year have been for this game. Sonic Unleashed, a game otherwise unavailable on modern hardware outside of hardware taxing emulation and Xbox backwards compatibility, has had all of its stages brought to Sonic Generations via Unleashed Project, filling what is currently a gaping hole in Sonic game availability. Modders have expanded on Generations’ original concept with loads of new remade levels like Sonic Heroes’ Grand Metropolis, Sonic Rush's Water Palace, Sonic 2’s Mystic Cave, and a whole Sonic 2006 level pack that legitimately plays much better than the actual game. There’s even some really solid original levels like Shivery Mountainside, an awesome mod I reviewed a few years ago. Heck, modders even let me finally play as Scourge, something I’ve been wanting to do in a Sonic game for a decade now. Key to Sonic Generations’ popularity with modders has been its accessibility. Being able to download and run Sonic Generations off the Steam store has been invaluable, and has helped keep Generations relevant even as the consoles it was also made for fell into disuse and those versions became less accessible. For this to continue, this can’t change. Delisting Sonic Generations in favor of Sonic X Shadow Generations has the potential to render more than a decades worth of mods completely inaccessible to newer members of the community. Even if it’s possible to update these mods to work with the new game, most of these mods are no longer being updated and will likely be left behind. Worse, if Sonic X Shadow Generations doesn’t appeal to modders like the original game did, it would also make future works inaccessible. We’ve already seen this happen to some degree with retro Sonic’s PC modding scene. Sonic 3 AIR is a very popular fanmade version of Sonic 3 that utilized the Steam port of Sonic 3. Ever since that’s been delisted, fans have been forced to source their own ROM for Sonic 3 in order to enjoy AIR and it’s ever-increasing assortment of mods. Despite being a newer and more readily accessible release, Sonic Origins has failed to attract the same level of attention from modders. Thankfully, Sonic 3 ROMs are quite easy to obtain, so Sonic 3 AIR mods are still thriving. Sonic Generations, being a more advanced game, won't be that easy for new fans to obtain for these mods. I understand the downsides of leaving a $20 version of your big Sonic game up, but removing it would be a massive blow to the Sonic franchise’s biggest supporters. I would hope that whoever makes these decisions at SEGA is confident enough in the value Sonic X Shadow Generation’s new content to simply leave the old game up, but if this is somehow unacceptable I ask that you find some other way to keep this version accessible. Raise the price if you need to! Or include it for free with Sonic X Shadow Generations and let everyone who buys the game also receive the old version! Just please, find some way to keep Sonic Generations around. I don’t think we’re asking for much. View full story

  5. SEGA has launched a brand new Sonic the Hedgehog 'Franchise Sale' on Steam this week, offering discounts on almost every single Sonic game available on the platform - except 2011's Sonic Generations. The headliners for this latest range of blue blur discounts centre around the most recent releases: Sonic Origins Plus is listed at 35% off (from £34.99 to £22.74 GBP), Sonic Superstars at 50% off (from £54.99 to £27.49) and Sonic Frontiers a whopping 60% off (from £49.99 to £19.99). But many other classic Sonic titles are also on offer - from Sonic Colors Ultimate (70% off) to Team Sonic Racing (75%) and Sonic 4 Episode I and II (75% each). Even 2010s classic spinoff titles Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing (50%) and its Transformed sequel (75%) are listed. While Sonic Mania, Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 are also missing from the Franchise Sale, it is the curious omission of Sonic Generations that has fired up the internet, with strong rumors of a return of the 20th Anniversary platformer coming via an announcement due as soon as tomorrow. SEGA also runs similar Franchise Sales quite frequently on Steam, and the game has been listed in the past, so its current full-price status has definitely not gone unnoticed by the community. The current Sonic Franchise Sale is now on and it's a great way to fill any gaps in your Steam collection - click here to head there and start spending! Original Post Content: View full story

  7. SEGA announced today that Gamecube classics Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle will be heading to the Japanese Steam store in 2024. The announcement was made online this morning as part of SEGA Japan's official pan-Asian Sonic fan meeting series, and was revealed to long-suffering Japanese Steam players during the Osaka leg of the tour. Fans outside Japan might be surprised to hear about this news, because Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 (and their DX/Battle DLC expansions) have both been available on Western Steam platforms for over a decade at this point. It's a little mind-blowing that neither game had hit the store in Japan since then. But it's worth remembering that, historically, PC gaming has been an incredibly niche market in Japan - certainly much, much smaller than in the West. Over the last few years, there has been a growing effort from Japanese publishers to explore the PC market and many have released titles on Steam in the country alongside consoles. This announcement would seem to be SEGA Japan's way of catching up to the offering that Western fans already enjoy. In any case, it's great news for Sonic fans in Japan and Asia. Seems a little strange to wait until 2024 for them but hey, they've been waiting some 11 years already, what's another couple of months? Original Post Content: View full story

    Sonic Superstars is Out Now

    SEGA’s 2D Classic Sonic game, Sonic Superstars, is now out and available on all platforms, including Playstation, Xbox, Switch, and the PC storefronts Steam and Epic! Be sure to download patch 1.05 before you play, which appears to be some sort of day one stability update. The game is developed by Arzest, a company founded by Sonic co-creator Naoto Ohshima. You can check out our review here. If you want to see the game in action, we've covered the first 7 stages pretty extensively on our YouTube. You can check out our Sunday livestream over on Twitch. UPDATE: There's a launch trailer. While you can watch it below, we would like to warn you that it contains late game spoilers, the sort we've been avoiding posting ourselves. Original Post Content: Sonic Superstars is set to launch in less than an hour! What are your final thoughts, as we near the game's release? Do you have the game preloaded? Are you going to wait and see? Skip out on it? Consider this a little discussion thread while we wait for the game to launch. View full story

  12. If you wanted any of those older digital releases of Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knckles, and CD, you might want to get them soon, because most of them are getting delisted on May 20. This news comes via a press release from SEGA, which confirmed the delisting of these games across all platforms outside of the Nintendo Switch and mobile. Specifically, every individually released version of Sonic 1, 2, 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Sonic CD are all getting delisted from Steam, Xbox, Playstation 3 and Playstation Now. The SEGA AGES releases of Sonic 1 and 2 on Switch will remain, as will Sonic 1, 2 and CD on iOS and Android. The 3DS releases have yet to be specified, but with that digital service ending next year they likely aren’t bothering with it. From SEGA's PR that we received; Sonic Channel released a somewhat more detailed list of what was being delisted, though while they say Sonic CD will be among the games getting delisted, it’s not on the list. This is likely just an oversight. You can find that here.
  13. Boy, it seems like people were really eager to play Sonic Frontiers! The game has reportedly smashed the record for most concurrent players for a Sonic the Hedgehog game on PC platform Steam. VGC reports that Frontiers hit a peak of 19,181 active players following the game's release this past week, citing metrics from SteamDB. The series' previous best was Sonic Mania's launch with a concurrent player count of 11,937 - meaning Sonic Team's latest adventure has nearly doubled it. Sonic Frontiers has also been receiving highly positive fan reception since its release last Tuesday as well, and the player count is no doubt buoyed further with overall positive scores and reviews from industry critics. Sonic Stadium was among those, giving the game a 'Good' score of 3.5 stars (you can read our review here). Here's the list of most concurrent players on Steam for the Sonic series, provided by VGC, for comparison's sake: Sonic Frontiers – 19,181 Sonic Mania – 11,937 Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed – 5,861 Sonic Origins – 2,668 Sonic Forces – 2,058 Sonic Generations – 1,686 Team Sonic Racing – 1,056 Sonic Lost World – 252 A fantastic effort by Sonic Team, and something to be really proud of!
  14. The Sonic Origins Plus DLC has officially rolled out on all platforms as of midnight EST. Playstation, Xbox, and Switch players can all play it, and Steam users can…well, buy it, at least, for a slight mark-up. Unfortunately, as of this writing, the Sonic Origins 2.0 patch with all the fixes and DLC content has yet to become available on Steam, meaning Steam players are locked out of the DLC even if they buy it. This will hopefully resolve soon, but anyone on Steam hoping to play the game at midnight will need to hold off. Steam users are also currently being charged a dollar more for for the DLC, for some reason. We have reached out to SEGA for comment. Original Post Content: View full story

  16. Sonic Colors Ultimate has hit Steam, and it seems SEGA is celebrating the occasion with sales of Sonic games on both the Steam Store & New Egg. The sales on both stores are a bit different, with different prices and titles available, so we’ve compiled both here. Steam Sales On Steam, all Sonic games are on sale for as much as 75% off, including: Sonic Frontiers: $41.99 Sonic Frontiers – Digital Deluxe: $48.99 Sonic Colors Ultimate: $27.99 Sonic Colors Ultimate – Digital Deluxe: $31.49 Sonic Origins: $19.99 Sonic Origins – Digital Deluxe: $22.49 Sonic Mania: $9.99 Sonic Mania Encore DLC: $2.49 Sonic Adventure 2: $2.49 Sonic Adventure 2 Battle DLC: $0.74 Sonic Adventure DX: $1.99 Sonic Generations: $4.99 Sonic Forces: $9.99 Sonic Lost World: $7.49 Team Sonic Racing: $9.99 Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed: $4.99 Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing: $2.49 Sonic 3D Blast: $1.24 Sonic 4 Episode I: $2.49 Sonic 4 Episode II: $2.49 Newegg Sales Meanwhile, New Egg is having a more discounted sale for Sonic games with Steam codes. The selection isn’t quite as big, but the discounts are steeper. You can find the sale here.

  17. SEGA says they've listened to all of your feedback, and their response has been to murder Sonic. Well, at least someone has. A day early for April Fools, but SEGA has released a new, free game today, The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog. The bizarre adventure game/visual novel sets the cast aboard the Mirage Express for an old fashioned murder mystery, with (as the title suggests) Sonic as the victim. You, Tails, and Amy attempt to hunt down the killer among the other familiar guests. Though released as an April Fools gag, the game had been in production for a year, per producer Michal Shafrir (on Twitter), and features the work of Greg Batha (UI designer of Dream Daddy, Hero Forge, others) and artist DEEGEEMIN (IDW Sonic, Spark 3). The game is available now to download via Steam. If previous promotional games are anything to go by, you may want to get it ASAP at the risk of it being delisted later.

  19. If you're a PC player that's been holding out for Sonic Colors: Ultimate to hit Steam, it's available now as both the base game or the Digital Deluxe version, each at a 30% discount until next week. The game launched nearly 17 months back to the day, hitting all major console platforms, but the PC version was initially released as an Epic Game Store exclusive. The game's launch today includes "Steam Deck Verified" status, likely making it the preferred method of portable play over the Switch version's framerate struggles. At initial launch, the game infamously suffered from a number of glitches and bugs; however some of the more egregious issues have been addressed in subsequent patches and updates. This release will also hopefully give a needed boost to the modding community, who have already worked to add skins, UI modifications, and deeper graphical adjustments to the game. UPDATE: It appears that Hedge Mod Manager and Rainbow Mod Loader have pushed out updates to support the Steam version of the game. However, players sensitive to the inclusion of Denuvo DRM will be disappointed that Colors: Ultimate too uses it, alongside nearly all other current SEGA releases, from Two Point Campus to Like a Dragon: Ishin! to Persona 3 Portable. Others have expressed since the game's launch dissatisfaction with the some of the remaster's creative and gameplay changes. While we don't have dedicated analysis of the PC version, site writer Nuckles87 previously streamed the PS4 version of the game following the second major patch with mixed feelings on what issues were and were not addressed.

If you're a PC player that's been holding out for Sonic Colors: Ultimate to hit Steam, it's available now as both the base game or the Digital Deluxe version, each at a 30% discount until next week. The game launched nearly 17 months back to the day, hitting all major console platforms, but the PC version was initially released as an Epic Game Store exclusive. The game's launch today includes "Steam Deck Verified" status, likely making it the preferred method of portable play over the Switch version's framerate struggles. At initial launch, the game infamously suffered from a number of glitches and bugs; however some of the more egregious issues have been addressed in subsequent patches and updates. This release will also hopefully give a needed boost to the modding community, who have already worked to add skins, UI modifications, and deeper graphical adjustments to the game. UPDATE: It appears that Hedge Mod Manager and Rainbow Mod Loader have pushed out updates to support the Steam version of the game. However, players sensitive to the inclusion of Denuvo DRM will be disappointed that Colors: Ultimate too uses it, alongside nearly all other current SEGA releases, from Two Point Campus to Like a Dragon: Ishin! to Persona 3 Portable. Others have expressed since the game's launch dissatisfaction with the some of the remaster's creative and gameplay changes. While we don't have dedicated analysis of the PC version, site writer Nuckles87 previously streamed the PS4 version of the game following the second major patch with mixed feelings on what issues were and were not addressed.

  22. Boy, it seems like people were really eager to play Sonic Frontiers! The game has reportedly smashed the record for most concurrent players for a Sonic the Hedgehog game on PC platform Steam. VGC reports that Frontiers hit a peak of 19,181 active players following the game's release this past week, citing metrics from SteamDB. The series' previous best was Sonic Mania's launch with a concurrent player count of 11,937 - meaning Sonic Team's latest adventure has nearly doubled it. Sonic Frontiers has also been receiving highly positive fan reception since its release last Tuesday as well, and the player count is no doubt buoyed further with overall positive scores and reviews from industry critics. Sonic Stadium was among those, giving the game a 'Good' score of 3.5 stars (you can read our review here). Here's the list of most concurrent players on Steam for the Sonic series, provided by VGC, for comparison's sake: Sonic Frontiers – 19,181 Sonic Mania – 11,937 Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed – 5,861 Sonic Origins – 2,668 Sonic Forces – 2,058 Sonic Generations – 1,686 Team Sonic Racing – 1,056 Sonic Lost World – 252 A fantastic effort by Sonic Team, and something to be really proud of!

  23. Figures this deserves its own topic. Seems like our favorite Bandicoot isn't dead just yet. Give it a few years though. Can't wait to see what's in store
  24. There isn't a trailer for this (yet), but when it comes out (most likely very soon) this post will be edited to include it. The first two kart racers were...kart racers all right, but I heard the second one was decent. This sounds like a massive step up, though. The inclusion of voice acting, something that was infamously not in the other two, is such a huge thing...which is actually kinda sad.
  25. A whole bunch of info came out about Sonic Frontiers today, and it’s not just what we got in the trailer. A pre-order bonus, an ”Adventurer’s Treasure Box,” will be available for anyone who pre-orders. Check out the image below: The game appears to already be listed on the PlayStation Store, with full details of a Digital Deluxe edition and prices published (which we've included below). The digital version of the game is listed as £50 / $60 for the regular edition, and £55 / $70 for the Digital Deluxe. In addition to this, the game’s Steam page has also confirmed that it will be using the infamous Denuvo anti-piracy software. Not exactly great news for anyone who was looking forward to getting it on PC. Finally, it appears anyone who signs up for the Sonic Frontiers newsletter will receive codes for free in-game content.
