It’s available on the Wii-U eShop now and it’s a free download. Check out the announcement trailer below: In today’s Nintendo Direct broadcast, Satoru Iwata also said the following: “Fans will be able to ‘Link’ their Wii U systems to the Nintendo E-Shop early next year to download this DLC as well.” Many fans are taking this hint as a confirmation of Zelda-themed DLC for Sonic Lost World in the new year.

Follow on Twitter @kronkblats Sonic 2 Remastered Releasing Tomorrow; Hidden Palace Zone is UnlockableWednesday, December 11th, 2013
Christian “The Taxman” Whitehead returns once again with a Retro Engine-powered port of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for Android and iOS devices. The new version of the 16 bit classic launches tomorrow and will be a free update for those who already own the existing port of Sonic 2 for these devices. Along with the usual enhancements of a widescreen display and more accurate controls, Whitehead has seen fit to add Hidden Palace Zone as an unlockable bonus stage. This is not the Hidden Palace Zone from Sonic & Knuckles either; this is the version that was discovered in Sonic 2 Beta. Whitehead has obviously not left the stage incomplete and has given it a lovely makeover which now includes gimmicks like the water jet you can see above.
