Good news to fans of the popular Sega icon, Sonic the Hedgehog , Sega have announced the release of another new Sonic title.

Sonic Forces (Formally Sonic 2017) was announced by Sega this week at SxSW to the eager general public, this title is the second in production alongside Sonic Mania which has just had it’s release date pushed back from Spring this year to sometime this summer.

Unlike Sonic Mania, Sonic forces will see the blue spikey hero return to a 3D environment and will apparently show a sleeker, modern take on the character as well as a more classic rotund version. Details of the plot and other character info are to be released shortly.

The game has been confirmed for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC so stay tuned for that one.
