During the livestream for gamescom 2023 Opening Night Live, SEGA has announced the release date for Sonic Superstars, which will launch on 17th October 2023.
The trailer for Sonic Superstars briefly shows local co-op of up to four players, along with an online free-for-all Battle Mode.
Sonic Superstars was initially announced during Summer Game Fest a few months ago, where players can play as iconic characters such as Sonic The Hedgehog, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose.
In this title, players will adventure through the mystical Northstar Islands in this all-new take on classic 2D Sonic high-speed action platforming, while harnessing all-new Emerald powers to move and attack in dynamic new ways.
Players will have to navigate through gorgeous, never-before-seen environments solo or with up to 3 other players and stop Dr. Eggman, Fang, and a mysterious new adversary from converting the islands’ giant animals into Badniks before it’s too late.
Gamescom 2023 Opening Night Live had also revealed another Sonic news with Sonic Frontiers getting its third new free content update titled The Final Horizon, which includes a new story, new playable characters as well as new challenges.
