A new trailer for Sonic Forces has gone live and it details more of the story that will feature in the game. Eggman appears to have conquered Sonic’s world but is clearly unsatisfied that he still isn’t rid of Sonic and his friends. This has lead him to awaken a new villain called Infinite who is helping Eggman and his army who are now encroaching on Sonic’s home in the Green Hill Zone. Even though this new trailer is heavy on the plot, there is also lots of new gameplay footage to be seen.

In keeping with the theme of Sonic Team dredging up pop punk vocalists whose popularity climaxed around 2003, the Sonic Forces vocal theme ‘Fist Bump’ features Douglas Robb from Hoobastank. This is pretty in keeping with mainline Sonic Team-developed Sonic titles as we’ve previously experienced themes by Zebrahead and Jaret Reddick from Bowling for Soup. We’d previously heard an untitled instrumental version of this track back in March, but this version features Robb singing along with the main guitar melody.

Okay so Bubsy is not a SEGA property but the original 2 games did appear on the Mega Drive and publisher Accolade are intrinsically connected with a big part of SEGA history (click here to read more), so we have to let you know that Accolade are back and they’re publishing a brand new Bubsy title called Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back. Yes, really. Developed by Black Forest Games who are responsible for the rather good Giana: Twisted Dreams, Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back is clearing riffing on the first two Bubsy titles and offers a 2.5D aesthetic, a whole host of yarn-based gimmicks and a snarky attitude to boot. Check out the announcement trailer by clicking below: Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back will launch on PC and PS4 in Autumn 2017. [Source: Gematsu] Webmaster and lead writer at SEGADriven.

Another classic Sonic stage is making its way to Sonic Mania in the form of a remixed Chemical Plant Zone. The new version of Chemical Plant Zone brings a whole host of new gimmicks with it. We’ve got mega-mack that can change colour which gives it different qualities like making it more springy, we’ve got sticky surfaces that you can launch yourself from and we’ve also got a new DNA-style transporter for launching Sonic/Tails/Knuckles onto higher paths. Check out the trailer below to see the new stage in action: We’ve also got a new image of a Green Hill Zone act 2 boss which you can view by clicking here (WARNING: SPOILERS). This image comes courtesy of tech site Venture Beat and they may have leaked this image early as the caption doesn’t match up with what it’s showing. Sonic Mania launches on PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch on the 15th of August 2015. [Source: The Sonic Stadium] Webmaster and lead writer at SEGADriven.

The inevitable Shenmue III delay has arrived! Shenmue III will now release in the 2nd half of 2018. It had previously been slated for a December 2017 release but as was previously revealed, Shenmue III was not scheduled for an appearance at this year’s E3 which put a 2017 release into doubt. Yu Suzuki announced the delay himself in the latest Kickstarter update and has said, “By utilising new technologies, we have been able to discover new possibilities and expressions. In many ways, the game has become bigger and more beautiful than I initially expected. We do, however, need more time to deliver the game to you.” Shenmue III will not be published by SEGA but instead by Sony. The game will eventually launch on PC and PS4.

This custom character is the third playable character option that was teased for inclusion in Sonic Forces and they come with additional abilities that include a grappling hook and a flamethrower. The customisable character will have 7 species for you to build your character from and each of them has specific extra abilities. The 7 species are listed below: Rabbit — Has longer invincible time after receiving damage You can check out the first footage of the customer character in action via the trailer below: We also get an extended look at the custom character in action in the dilapidated city stage which is now officially known as Park Avenue.
