Sonic Mania coming to PS4, Xbox One, PC in spring 2017

The big announcement we’ve all been waiting for has been dropped at tonight’s Sonic 25th Anniversary Party in San Diego.

Sonic Mania will return Sonic to his roots in a new 2D platformer developed in collaboration between SEGA, Christian Whitehead, Headcannon and PagodaWest.

The new entry in the Sonic series will include classic levels mixed with entirely new zones and will feature Sonic, Tails and Knuckles as playable characters.

What’s more, SEGA is showcasing a playable demo for attendees of tonight’s Sonic anniversary event.

Sonic Mania will release on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC in spring 2017. No mention of a Wii U release, lol.
