Sonic the Hedgehog Gets a New 2D Adventure With Sonic Superstars - Hardcore Gamer
Hey folks, did you like Sonic Frontiers? If so, then good news, there’s yet another Sonic the Hedgehog game that’s been announced for this year! And if you didn’t like Sonic Frontiers, then good news, said game is a return to the series’ original 2D roots again! It isn’t necessarily Sonic Mania 2, but it definitely pays homage to several classic Sonic adventures with another unique twist. That game would be Sonic Superstars, whose announcement trailer you can check out below.
Not only does this new game feature a brand new style that mixes 3D graphics which the more classic designs of the Genesis days, but it also features some classic level design right out of the original games, while also featuring new gameplay mechanics, skills, and powers, like an area where our heroes can transform into different creatures and swim around in the air. Oh, and yes, that “heroes” as the list of playable characters here includes Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose, and has co-op play. We even get a glimpse of Fang the Sniper returning at the end, a character that hasn’t been included since the likes of Sonic the Fighters (though a hologram of him was in Sonic Mania as part of a boss battle). Can we expect any other deep cuts and surprises as well? We’ll see when Sonic Superstars arrives this fall for all major platforms.
