Sega recently hosted a special live stream that featured artist Tyson Hesse, who worked on the game’s opening animation, to give us a look at an earlier version of the opening. [Thanks, Nintendo Everything.]
You can check out the earlier version of Sonic Mania’s opening animation in the video below, with comments from Hesse on its making.
Sonic Mania is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
