The platformer was announced as part of the next wave of games coming to Netflix’s games offering on Wednesday, where it confirmed the title will be released in 2024 for Android and iPhone.
The ‘Plus’ edition of Sonic Mania was released for consoles and PC in 2018, containing a remixed Encore Mode and two new playable characters, Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel.
Netflix’s games offering launched in 2021 and will have nearly 90 games by the end of this year, including Grand Theft Auto Trilogy – The Definitive Edition (launching Thursday) and Football Manager 24 Mobile.
According to Netflix, it has another nearly 90 games in development, including Braid: Anniversary Edition, Hades, Monument Valley 1 & 2, and Paper Trail.
Earlier this year, Netflix also took the first step towards making games playable on TV and computers by rolling out a test in the US, UK and Canada.
“By year’s end, we’ll have 86 games available —all included with every Netflix membership without ads, in-app purchases or extra fees,” wrote Netflix’s games VP, Mike Verdu. “And with nearly 90 more games in development, we’re just getting started.”
