So... it's like a SM3DW + Bowser's Fury kind of thing then? A remaster with a new game attached onto it as well?

Nice.

Surprised that they're leaning into the characters and setting of Shadow The Hedgehog, would've thought that they'd try and distance themselves from that mess of a game... (I can hear the internal screams coming from @Glen-i already :laughing:).

This is a neat idea. Not a fan of Shadow at all, but I always appreciate variety, and it's a good effort, bringing substantial new content to a remaster.

But why did Sega greenlight a title that will inevitably lead to fanfiction when googled?

Because this is a company that makes a lot of money from furries.

I wonder if there's a chance that they might be able to retro-fit the Classic Sonic physics from Sonic Superstars into this port?

Because Sonic Generations plays like complete shite in comparison to Mania/Superstars...

That would actually make this a very worthwhile purchase if they could pull it off!

According to Billbil-kun, this is dropping on October 25th:

Also got a box art leak courtesy of @mysterylupin, so there's that:

Guess it gets confirmed over the next few days, if not just at SGF tomorrow night?

A Collector's Edition has been announced, because how else are you supposed to enjoy all 12...cm of Shadow? 

For a game with X in the title I'd expect more than 12cm.

Sega are still up to their odd newsletter DLC stuff. You can get a Sonic Jam skin based on Sonic's first* 3D appearance.

*well, first 3D appearance in a platforming game with "Sonic" in the title. His first 3D platforming appearance was Christmas Nights into Dreams, and he appeared in 3D in Sonic the Fighters (and hidden in Fighting Vipers) before that.

Sadly it's being made by Limited Run Games.

I would have been all other that if it wasn’t Limited Run Games. :sad:

The Chao figurines!

Yeah, it's a shame they keep getting these kinds of things exclusive to them. I would have been very tempted to pick it up as well.

No idea why SEGA can't produce it themselves, they are more than capable. 

In other news, they've made the first 10 episodes of Sonic X Japanese dub with English subtitles.

So...I've tried a few 2D Sonic games and hated them all.

Every single trailer I've watched of this is fucking awesome. What the hell? This looks fun :p
Edit: Not to mention the song in this trailer...yeah...you know...YOU KNOW!
