Today at the Sonic 25th Anniversary Party at SDCC, SEGA announced Sonic Mania, a fully new 2D Genesis style game in HD developed by Taxman (Christian Whitehead). Sonic, TAILS, and Knuckles will be playable in the game and will feature a new drop dash move and other surprises.

The game will release in Spring 2017 on Steam, Xbox 1 and PS4.

Looks like I'm gonna get an Xbox One for Sonic Mania. Sonic Mania should be an extremely successful game!

Any ideas on the plotline, yet?

They must be out of ideas if they're resorting back to 2D games.

This is a side game, Sonic Team has still yet to show the game they are working on. Actually they did later in the event

SEGA press release says this game will only be avaliable as a digital download.
Some off camera footage of the game demo! https://youtu.be/u1nQxH3kugg

Wonder if they ever explain what causes critters in this world to change eye color from a default black to whatever innate color that was hiding. Something to do with Chaos Emeralds?
I assume the Genesis era only fans will like this, since they are using the classic designs. They probably will for nostalgia keep the plot simplistic. I guess also saves on having to call in the voice actors in every language if they aren't using voice clips.

I am okay with this game since it generally classic Sonic 2D and it has 3 playable characters there.
Always Bet On Tails!

That's what I think. I hope that is the case.

Wait isn't that the guy who made the mobile ports of Sonic CD and some of the other Genesis era games?

That is correct, he did the remakes of Sonic 1, 2 and CD.

I would've bought it if it looked more like the mockup TSS posted on their Facebook page not long ago.
