Numerous developers have been crafting titles for Nintendo’s latest 3D-enabled handheld system. We recently heard about Square Enix’ Heroes of Ruin for the device and now another company has packed an interesting quest revolving around a familiar character. Sega has unveiled that Sonic Generations will land onto the Nintendo 3DS later this year.
The game is said to encompass the hedgehog’s 20 year long journey in the terrain. Depicting vibrant images from the character’s personal history, the title will manifest gameplay in stereoscopic 3D on the console. The plot of the game revolves around a baffling power which has wreaked havoc, transporting Sonic and his friends back into time.
“Sonic Generations for Nintendo 3DS will combine brand new technology and twenty years of Sonic the Hedgehog videogame heritage” commented David Corless, Global Brand Director for Sonic. “Couple this with the ability to play as both Classic and Modern Sonic and you have the perfect gaming celebration for the landmark anniversary of our much loved mascot”
By employing the 3DS’ StreetPass feature, gamers can gather varied content as well as access bonus material. These additional offerings will be available as and when they pass another enthusiast. Furthermore, it features two-player versus mode along with an exclusive unlockable ‘Special Stage,’ facilitating enthusiasts to explore in-game environments.
Sonic Generations has been slated to release this November for the Xbox 360, PS3 and Nintendo 3DS.
