Sonic the Hedgehog stays in the new Sonic Superstars game alongside his friends. The new angle of the classic game is a refreshed iteration of the 2D platform franchise that replaces the usual 16-bit graphics for a much more elevated look.
The game's trailer highlights the cartoon mascot finishing the Green Hill Zone in the original 1991 version and finds himself in a split-screen view that transforms him into his new 2023 version. In addition to the new look, the game will also have a plethora of new tricks that star the familiar series of the cast including Amy Rose, Knuckles, and Tails. They take on the mission to beat Dr. Eggman, as per usual and the game is set to launch this fall.
