Sonic Superstars lets players control either Sonic, Tails, Knuckles or Amy Rose, and for the first time in a Sonic game, there will also be co-op support for up to four players.
The game will be released in fall 2023 both digitally and physically, on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Switch and PC.
According to Sega: “Sonic and his friends’ journey starts on the beautiful North Star Islands, a mystical place offering never-before-seen environments, as well as a mysterious story waiting to unfold.
“Enormous creatures, exhilarating adventures, and evil plans from Dr Eggman await Sonic and his friends, who can now obtain brand-new abilities known as the Emerald Powers when Chaos Emeralds are collected.”
These new abilities include creating clones, climbing waterfalls and powering up.
Fang the Sniper, an old enemy from Game Gear title Sonic Triple Trouble, also returns to help out Eggman.
According to Sega, “2D classic Sonic platforming has been reimagined for current-generation platforms with new zones, music, gameplay, and modern UHD visuals only possible with 3D graphics.
“Sonic’s movements, physics, and controls feel familiar and appeal to recent and legacy fans alike.”
