Sonic Mania Announced: A New 2D Adventure on PS4

Sonic Mania brings fans back into the 2D world of platform games with nostalgic pixel-style art and core classic gameplay by reimagining iconic Zones and Acts from Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic The Hedgehog 2, Sonic CD and Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles. Before you get too lost in nostalgia of the 1990s, the game is also adding completely new Zones with all-new Acts and bosses into the mix.

 

[Neoxon]

So this is the Classic Sonic game, nice.

I'm glad that Sega let Chrstian Whitehead make his own Sonic game, but I'm curious to see what Sonic Team is working on.

 

[DeathSparks]

Looks awesome!

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

Looking forward to seeing pics etc.

 

[Huge Succeeded]

This shit looks SO LEGIT

 

[Kamek]

The drop dash looks cool.

 

[Andrefpvs]

This is all I wanted. A 2D game with mechanics similar to the first games.

 

[xzeldax3]

The footage looks so good!

 

[AaronMT86]

Trailer?

 

[Hikami]

beautiful

 

[WillyFive]

Graphics are fantastic, Christian Whitehead making a new Sonic game is a great idea.

 

[amnesiac]

Looked excellent.

 

[BocoDragon]

Looks like the real Sonic 4.

 

[RagnarokX]

Awesome. Never thought they'd do it. Not a fan of the Knuckles Chaotix-looking level, but hopefully other levels look good.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Looks pretty great.

I bet it comes to NX at launch as well.

 

[Mistle]

Looks fantastic! So cool that a fellow Melburnian is doing this.

 

[Escalario]

The new Sonic game is a fangame. I'm dying here lol.

 

[Strimei]

I have to admit, I'm on board.

[grandjedi6]

I refuse to believe

 

[Spinky]

OK.

 

[Kinsei]

Eh, I'm not a fan of the retro graphics. I'm not sure if I trust them to have level design on par with the classics.

 

[Otakumegane]

There's no way this isn't going to be on NX. Nintendo is likely just wanting to montage it.

 

[chaobreaker]

Ok, I'm sold. Giving sonic the MegaMan 9 treatment. Good job, Sega.

[Whompa02]

Actually looks good.

 

[KingBroly]

Looks pretty great.

I bet it comes to NX at launch as well.

They didn't even put a Nintendo logo on the trailer.

 

[Nintendoga]

Yo bruh a CLASSIC Sonic game
done by the gdlk Taxman?
Oh you bet your ass this is day 1

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

It's nice but...I'll be honest I do want a true advancement of the series. I guess that might come later, or is this it?

Day 1 though.

 

[Hip Hop]

Trailer?

up

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Trailer looks dope.

 

[BlackJace]

Looks dope

 

[BluePigGaming]

There's no way that isn't coming to NX in some form.

 

[jett]

Hey it's a romhack.

How come despite being widescreen it still doesn't look like you have enough space to know what the fuck is coming at you.

 

[Spaghetti]

Tee Lopes doing the music.

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Not what I expected, but man oh man, I'm all in on this. That looked really cool.

Wonder what Sonic Team are up to, though.

 

[Neff]

Developed by Christian Whitehead

No thanks

 

[Neoxon]

They didn't even put a Nintendo logo on the trailer.

Maybe because the NX has yet to be announced.

 

[dickroach]

It's nice but...I'll be honest I do want a true advancement of the series. I guess that might come later, or is this it?

Day 1 though.

nah apparently there's gonna be more announcements

No thanks

what makes you say that?

 

[Camjo-Z]

Holy shit, Tee Lopes music too? This is the ultimate collaboration.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

They didn't even put a Nintendo logo on the trailer.

Well yeah, because NX hasn't been revealed yet.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Looks pretty fucking great.

 

[Ginger Hail]

Looks really nice.

 

[Sami+]

This looks beautiful

 

[AdanVC]

Looks ace but WHY NO NINTENDO SYSTEMS!?? So pissed off right now for that :'(

 

[KingBroly]

Maybe because the NX has yet to be announced.

They could just put the Nintendo logo on it. NX is a thing, the name isn't sure, but Ubisoft already announced Just Dance for it, ffs.

 

[BocoDragon]

Developed by Christian Whitehead

No thanks

???????

Well who the hell else on this earth would be more appropriate?
