Sonic Superstars was announced earlier this year at the Summer Game Fest 2023. The game will bring a new spin on the classic Sonic side scrolling 2D platformers, with a reimagination in 3D. During Gamescom 2023, Sega announced the release date of the game along with minimum and recommended PC requirements. While the company outlined that the game is available for pre-order, the pre-orders are not live in India at the time of writing.
The upcoming 3D side-scrolling platformer is set to release on October 17th. It will take place in Northstar Islands, where you can play as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose. Some of the bosses include Dr. Eggman, Fang, and a “mysterious new adversary”.
