Sega revealed a couple new Sonic the Hedgehog games, starting with Sonic Mania, which will bring back the 2D world of platform games and pixel-style art in a reimagining of iconic Zones and Acts.

 

 

Here are more details from the press release:

 

Sonic Mania brings fans back into the 2D world of platform games with nostalgic pixel-style art and core classic gameplay by reimagining iconic Zones and Acts from Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic The Hedgehog 2, Sonic CD and Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles, and adding in completely new Zones with all-new Acts, and bosses into the mix. Developed by Sega of America and in collaboration with PagodaWest Games along with Christian Whitehead and Simon Thomley, the game will be digitally available for PlayStation® 4, Xbox One and PC in Spring 2017.

 

And a word from Head of Sonic Team, Takashi Iizuka:

 

Sonic Mania was born out of our fans’ love of the classic Sonic 2D platform games. This type of collaboration is a first for SEGA and we hope everyone will be both surprised and delighted by this title. Sonic Mania has been a passion project for the entire team and we look forward to sharing more details about it later this year.  Having the game actually playable at the event itself tonight was testament to the dedication of the team behind it.”

 

Sonic Mania will release in spring 2017 as a downloadable title for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
