The SEGA Forever channel has released 3 high quality screenshots of the cancelled SEGA Saturn game Sonic X-Treme. SEGA Forever have explained that these screenshots were sent to press for use in magazines and various promotional material.
Sonic X-Treme was being developed at the SEGA Technical Institute from 1994 to 1996 with Chris Senn as lead designer. The game was supposed to be launched for the holiday season of 1996, but due to various issues it was cancelled and replaced with a port of Sonic 3D: Flickies’ Island.

LEGO content will be added to Sonic Superstars featuring Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr. Eggman minifigs. Pre-ordering the game now gives players access to an exclusive Dr. Eggman character skin. A trailer showing the Sonic and Eggman minifigs in action can be seen below:
It is currently not clear as to what this LEGO content in Sonic Superstars will entail. While the trailer showcases Sonic and Eggman minifigs, it’s only the Eggman one that is currently confirmed as a character skin at the time of writing. Hopefully the DLC will extend to more than just character skins but we’ll have to wait and see.
