Sega is holding a press event today which should give us an idea of what they’re planning to do with the Sonic brand this year. The poster says that 2014 will mark a renaissance for Sonic the Hedgehog, so we may get information regarding Sega’s third Wii U Sonic game. Earlier this week it was revealed at the Nuremberg toy fair that Sega is planning a brand new Sonic title for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Wii U, but Sega quickly squashed the rumour.
Sega Says “2014 Will Mark A Renaissance For Sonic The Hedgehog” Holding Event


I hope that third silhouette is knuckles.
They look like prehistoric versions of the characters
But than why does Tails have a wrench? not very prehistoric if you ask me
It’s actually a bone…. COMEDY!!
Seems more like they’re wearing armour/suits, check the area around Sonics shoulders for the seemingly most obvious example. Helm too possibly, his ‘chin’ is much too large.
Seems kinda big to be Knuckles, honestly.
I can’t wait to see the next Sonic game fail. Both in game design and commercially.
Sega are a JOKE!!!
For the last 3 years they have released epic fail crap lame Sonic games that have been utter terrible that sold really bad and cost them millions!!
When will they learn?NO ONE gives a cack about Sonic games no more.
The 3 years Sega WASTED making crap epic fail Sonic games could have been used to make Shenmue 3 that would have been so epic, released for all consoles and PC and they would have put themselves back on the map as a great game maker not a lame clueless Sonic rehash money grabber!!
Agreed with the sonic is crap and lame. But it’s fanboys will never realize that just like the fanboys that still think Pacman is relevant in today’s gaming world which he is not. Sonic should go back to it’s roots 2d platformer roots.
weird, the last 3 years they have released pretty aclaimed Sonic games
I dont see where those “epic fail” sonic games are
Haha acclaimed?? How convenient if you to forget both Sonic Flop World games!! Haha pathetic fanboys shove a needle up your ass!
lol, Sonic LW was even above average, it was not as good as Gen or Colors, but it was better than Unleashed or 06
Sonic Colors was actually awesome, but no one knows how that was made. I can firmly assure no one at Sega had the level of skill to pull a game like that off
Sonic colors, Sonic Generations and Sonic Lost World were awesome(lost world was not as good as the other 2 but it was cool)
still, i dont see what this guy says Sonic sucked this 3 years when many praised the move SEGA made with Sonic after 06 formula
Fuck you! Sonic Flop World was a fucking mediocre mess! But I see you’re merely a sonic fanboy. There is no reasoning with people like you, you’re worse than damn creationists!
creationist are extremists
also, creationists exist due to faith rather than facts
I on the other hand can prove what Im saying
I got the 2 version, and the 3DS was way superior than the WiiU but the WiiU one was cool as well
The hell? The silhouettes imply all the Sonic characters are getting new art style character designs…Which, I’m indifferent about apart from the fact SSB4 is already using “Modern” Sonic :/
Another change. Now there’s going to be Classic Sonic, Classic Sonic 2, and modern sonic. A change in the design will not make it better
those silhouettes were revealed for the new CG series
What portaldark said … This is for the new cartoon series.
Awesome, new design..yaaay. So, Smash 4 could well and truly be the last game with the good design.
those sillouetes are fro the CG series
I get that, but since they seem to be ‘rebooting’ it, why not match the styles of both?
good point
let’s just hope the series be something different
There hasnt been a good Sonic series
The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was lame
Sonic The Hedgehog(SaTAM) was ok, but not that good
Sonic Underground was fucking bad
Sonic X had three issues:
1)Too much filler
2)4Kids
3)Started ok then messed up a lot of sutff
Am I the only one who actually liked The Adventures cartoons?
I only like it because of the Youtube Poop
Pingas!
Am I to assume cartoons should not be for kids? The logic is mindboggling. Cartoons were originally for kids so they can convince parents to buy the toys, games, clothing, etc.
not really
go watch adventure time
sickr, i send you 2 news
Stop spending all day on this site and get a life dude
mind your own bussiness, stalker
Sonic fell off…..what real gamers all want is another KNACK game they are tired of a old fat short dirty plumber whose addiction is getting high on mushrooms and climbing inside smelly sewer pipes chasing a blond chic
you are so funny
aka, KNACK sucked hard
Knack was horrible dude. Stop trying so hard to make it appear as a decent game. It was a flat gameplay, poorly designed and overall extremely bland.
If you really think Knack was good, gosh you have awful tastes.
Also, “real gamers” play both on Nintendo and Sony systems and perfectly know that Mario is still way up there when it comes to platformers and a 3D Mario game is the consecration for all gamers, rather they are old or young gamers.
Stop speaking in the name of “real gamers” when you’re not even one yourself.
I keep seeing your trolls Mark Cerny, and you are so off the tracks dude.
People who think Sonic is still failing are people who are late to the Sonic hate train that ended in mid-2010. Lost World sucked, but it’s no 06. One bad game isn’t going to kill a franchise.
I don’t understand why is it so hard for sega to go back to the sonic adventure style, they perfected that formula with Sonic Adventure 2 and they scrap it, the last formula with Sonic Generations they also perfected and then they decided to scrap it with Lost World.
Sonic Mega Evolutions confirmed…
I thought Lost Worlds was going to be a revolution…it really was not as fun as I thought, because it was very awkward to control at times.
My opinion aside, it sold like shit, so I’m not the only one to feel this way. I don’t know how they can revive Sonic. And don’t get me wrong, Lost Worlds didn’t suck, it just wasn’t as epic as it needed to be to revolutionize the franchise.
A Sonic RPG would probably glp sales.
Guys I’m scared….
I’d very much welcome a Sonic change to be honest :)
I’m a Semi Sonic fan but I think a change in appearance would work wonders :D
We know, Sega. Just like 2013, 2012, 2011, etc etc…
Wii U third exclusive, CGI series, and probably toys.
2014: Year of Luig… SONIC! I meant Sonic!…
They have revealed Sonic & Knuckles designs
