Despite being overshadowed by Super Mario Wonder, which has significant hype, Sonic Superstars will be released for the end-of-year holidays. Evidence of this is provided by the launch trailer, which reminds us that the blue hedgehog returns in a horizontally scrolling platformer game but with 3D realization. This genre blend works wonderfully, and we look forward to seeing it reflected in the gameplay. Until we have more details on this new installment, players can choose from characters including Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose. By collecting Emerald Powers, players can unlock special abilities for movement and attack. Additionally, the game supports cooperative play with up to four players.
Sonic Superstars was released on October 17th, yesterday in fact, across PC, PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
