SEGA continue their recent mobile gaming initiative with a new Sonic game called Sonic Rumble. This 32 player online multiplayer game has a similar style and scope to something like Fall Guys where everyone is wrestling their way through the pack to be first across the finish line. There’s a big focus on character customisation that you can achieve by winning rings after successful play. You can check out the reveal trailer below:
Sonic Rumble is due to launch in Winter 2024. You can register for a closed beta test scheduled to take place from May 24th to the 26th by completing a form on the official Sonic Rumble website. You have until May 19th to register if you’re interested.

Another new Sonic the Hedgehog board game is on the way in the form of Sonic Roll which is due to release in January 2024.
This 1-4 player game from Kess Entertainment was designed by Anthony Thorp of Tome: The Light Edition fame, and it features a cover illustration from IDW comic artist Tracey Yardley. It’s a great piece of artwork that’s clearly meant to ape the look of a North American SEGA Genesis game.
The Sonic franchise has seen a surprising amount of board game adaptations in recent years. Sonic Crash Course from IDW Games and Sonic Battle Racers from Shinobi 7 both launched in 2019.
The latest Sonic the Hedgehog game has been announced – a 3D platformer from SEGA’s UK-based Hardlight team, who’s previous works include Sonic Forces Speed Battle and Chu Chu Rocket Universe.
A plot summary comes the game’s official website:
In this all-new Sonic adventure, the evil Dr. Eggman has discovered The Reverie – an ancient device with the power to manifest dreams in the real world. Navigate twisted dreamscapes, rescue your friends, and put a stop to Dr. Eggman’s nightmarish dreams of world domination!
As you can see from the trailer, Sonic won’t be alone – with Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Cream and Rouge all tagging along. The game will include 12 levels across 4 worlds.
The game will be launching exclusively for Apple’s Apple Arcade service. This means it’ll be free of microtransactions and the like, and will be playable across basically any Apple device with a screen – including the iPhone, iPad, iMac, and Apple TV. There is no word on whether this exclusitivity is timed, however – and Chu Chu Rocket Universe, which was also an Apple Arcade title, was simply delisted a long while ago and hasn’t resurfaced since. Hopefully, Dream Team won’t suffer a similar fate in the long run.
Screenshots (via SEGA PR) can be found after the jump. Additional screenshots can also be found on the website. (more…)
