#Sonic superstar racing series

The player must complete a series of levels ('zones') to defeat Doctor Eggman, who has hired Fang the Hunter to capture the North Star Islands' giant animals so he can build a powerful army. It is presented from a 2.5D perspective like the Classic Sonic segments of Sonic Generations (2011) and Sonic Forces (2017), the game world is rendered in 3D although movement is restricted to a 2D plane. Sonic Superstars is a side-scrolling platform game similar to the Sonic the Hedgehog games released for the Sega Genesis in the 1990s. Gameplay Sonic and Knuckles explore Bridge Island Zone, one of the game's levels. Sonic Superstars is scheduled to be released for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S in late 2023. Superstars marked Ohshima's first contribution to a Sonic game since Sonic Adventure (1998), and Arzest sought to replicate the Genesis Sonic gameplay while innovating with new game mechanics. After plans for another collaboration with the developers of Sonic Mania (2017) fell through, Iizuka began discussing a collaboration with Arzest, a studio founded by Sonic co-creator Naoto Ohshima.

Sonic Team's head, Takashi Iizuka, wanted to modernize Sonic 's traditional side-scrolling formula so it could continue independently from the 3D games. Superstars introduces power-ups that the player can obtain by collecting the Chaos Emeralds. As one of four player characters- Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles 'Tails' Prower, Knuckles the Echidna, and Amy Rose-the player completes side-scrolling levels as they set out to defeat Doctor Eggman and Fang the Sniper. It features side-scrolling gameplay similar to the Sonic the Hedgehog games released for the Sega Genesis in the 1990s. Sonic Superstars is an upcoming platform game developed by Arzest and Sonic Team and published by Sega.
