Rumor: Sonic Fall Guys-Inspired Spin-Off Name Gets Leaked

A notable leaker has revealed a title known as Sonic Rumble, a multiplayer battle royale Sonic the Hedgehog spin-off for mobile devices. Sonic Rumble was first leaked by MbKKssTBhz5, or Midori, who has had an accurate track record throughout 2023 and 2024 regarding many unannounced Sega-produced titles. The upcoming Sonic Rumble is one of those games she had leaked previously, including what was the game's working title.

Midori originally leaked the game as Sonic Toys Party back in January. She stated this Sonic spin-off would be similar to Fall Guys, including its platforming mechanics and customization elements. It would also support up to 32 players in one match and would be released for iOS and Android devices. The reason it is releasing for these platforms is to increase its focus on mobile gaming, as seen with previous efforts like Sonic Dream Team and Persona 5: The Phantom X. While early leaked footage said the game was at one point titled Sonic Toys Party, Sonic Rumble will be the final name of this upcoming spin-off, according to Midori.

In a new series of tweets posted by Midori, she first simply posted «Sonic Rumble,» following that up by noting that it would be the final title for the Sonic mobile game that is similar to Fall Guys. This final title seems to be cemented with a thread she posted a few hours later regarding a new URL domain that was registered by Sega on April 18. According to Midori, Sonic Rumble was one of many titles that were considered for the game before deciding on its final title.
