IDW will release a four-issue comic book collection dedicated to "Sonic the Hedgehog 2". This will be a prequel to the film called "The Official Movie Pre-quill", which will be written by Gail Galligan. The release is expected on April 5, 2022. Here is the description of the collection: "Before you watch "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" in cinemas, find out what the Blue Demon was doing after the end of the first film! Life is good in the Green Hills for Sonic the Hedgehog. Probably even too good. He starts to get bored, and when Sonic gets bored, then everyone is no longer bored — and quickly! You don't have time to say "Chili Dog", and the fastest Creature in the World saves everyone and creates chaos wherever possible! Will Tom and Maddie be able to slow down his craving for heroism? In addition, old and new characters from "Sonic in the Movies 2" will now be the main characters in their own stories!"

SEGA has released a video in which we are shown the differences from the original. There you can see in action the race mode with Metal Sonic and the Sonic customization menu.

Now Sonic is officially available in Minecraft! The set includes: 24 skins and a map in which you can pass levels and special stages. You can buy it on all platforms that have Minecraft: Bedrock Edition.

Here's what Takashi Iizuka said recently about the game from various interviews: The game will be a "progress" for modern Sonic games.Sonic Team spent a lot of time trying to create "something new and complex".The game is not an anniversary game.He hopes that the game will lay the foundation for future games, as Sonic Adventure did in it's time.The teaser was shown to show everyone that the team is really busy developing a new game.

Sonic Mania will be available for free in the Epic Games Store on June 24, 2021.

Producer Calvin Wu shared new details about the re-release in another interview, this time for Gamespot. It became known that: The gold medals that can be seen in the gameplay videos are called "Park Tokens". They can be exchanged for various items that change the appearance of Sonic and his attacks.The remaster has a new mechanic called "Sweet spot attack", which in the case of accurate execution of the attack at a certain time will give Sonic additional acceleration.As a bonus, catch a new gameplay video and one of the remixes:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH_JSyZ1J84&ab_channel=SonictheHedgehog

Shemar Moore joined the cast of the sequel. Who he will play is still unknown.

Here is a interview from Shacknews about Sonic Colors Ultimate:

New details from Iizuki's interview for GameInformer: The games will work in the 16:9 format (Well, we already know that)The collection will have new features that are not available even in the SEGA Ages versions.The collection will be available on different platforms.The collection will be released on physical media.Iizuka is looking forward to the release of the collection. It's all the fault of Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

In short, it will be a collection of classic Sonic games, which will include: Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Sonic CD. All games will get a widescreen format. The collection will be released on the latest platforms (most likely referring to the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S) next year.

Some important moments from the interview with Takashi Iizuka and Kazuyuki Hoshino for Famitsu magazine regarding Sonic Colors Ultimate: The postscript "Ultimate" says that according to Iizuki's idea, the upcoming game has many things that were not in the original game, which makes it the "final version".The game removed the old system of lives.Adding Tails will make it easier for beginners, for whom the game is released.With the Jade Ghost, the player will be able to access previously inaccessible areas.New locations will appear on the levels, which can only be explored with the help of a Jade Ghost.Iizuka recommends "Sonic Colors Ultimate" as the "perfect Sonic" to those who have met the hedgehog through the film.

Tails will still appear in the game. Not as a playable character, but as a "safety cushion". If you collect the tokens of Tails (these are most likely the heads that appeared in the video of Brian Connelly), then he will raise Sonic from the abyss if he falls into them. This became known from the magazine Famitsu:

Brian Connelly, the artist responsible for creating graphic effects, decided to share his process of working on the Sonic Colors Ultimate. You can watch all his videos here.

After this story, the option with Sonic Rangers seems much more likely. In short, SEGA, sending a press release to the Eurogamer editorial office, wrote "We have announced "Sonic Colors: Ultimate" and "Sonic Rangers", additional information about "Sonic Prime" from Netflix, mobile news, music events and much more!". Later, she said that this press release was wrong, at the same time sending a new one, in which Sonic Rangers was no longer there.

Thanks to Sonic Central, we have learned new details. In general, the events of the cartoon will take place in a new and mysterious world called "Shatter-verse". Sonic will have to save his universe, simultaneously "experiencing moments of self-discovery and redemption."

It looks like there will be a playable Tails in the remastered version! The remastered version will also include an updated version of the song "Reach for the Stars" and new tracks from all stages and boss battles. In addition, there will be remixes of the original soundtrack.

As for the name of the game, there are two possible options - this is either Sonic Up (judging by the symbol at the end of the teaser), or Sonic Rangers (this has already become known from the published teaser, since the original video was uploaded to SEGA Press, which allowed us to dig into the data). There were also rumors about the open world in the game, but it is better not to trust them yet.

Now it's official.  

Roger Craig Smith announced on Twitter that he is returning to voice-over Sonic in Games:  

Filming in Vancouver is officially over. This was written by Jeff Fowler on Twitter. Filming will now continue in Hawaii.

Meet Knuckles!
