Sega have posted a brand-new thirteen-minute-long animation to celebrate the blue hedgehog’s thirty-fifth anniversary .
“Dr. Eggman’s new evil scheme is to upgrade Metal Sonic into the ultimate fighting machine by stealing Sonic’s life-data and harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds. Can Sonic and his friends defeat this supercharged Metal Sonic?”
Sega also encourage you to celebrate the anniversary by hugging your nearest and dearest while humming the theme from the Green Hill Zone. Just joking; they want you to spend money on Sonic games, which are on sale with up to 70% off. If that’s not for you, you can spend money on Sonic 35th Anniversary merch instead.
Switch owners can pick up the Sonic Classic Collection that includes Sonic Origins, Sonic Mania, and Sonic Superstars, and/or the Sonic Modern Collection” which will come with Sonic Frontiers, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Sonic Forces. Both are physical compilations for Switch planned to be released in October 2026 and will feature special 35th Anniversary reversible coversheets and logo patches at $49.99 USD each.
