Sega’s Sonic Superstars is out now for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Developed by Arzest in collaboration with Sonic Team, the side-scrolling platformer sees Sonic and friends venturing to the Northstar Islands to battle Eggman, Fang the Hunter, and the mysterious Trip. Check out the launch trailer below.
While retaining the same feel as classic Sonic the Hedgehog platformers, Sonic Superstars supports four-player co-op. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose are playable and can utilize new Emerald Powers, like throwing a bunch of clones at your enemies, scaling waterfalls, and much more.
Sonic Superstars also doesn’t utilize any stages from the previous games, thus delivering fresh experience. You can check out our review for more details. We gave it a 5 out of 10, praising the visual fidelity, controls and sense of speed but criticizing the overall design of the Zones, the Emerald Powers, music, and more.
