Sega wasted no time with its second smash live-action video game adaptation, dropping its raw, fluffy white glove into its bucket of content, pulling it out Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 (and Knuckles) and Sonic CD and tie them together sonic origina $40 “remastered” pack, will launch on all consoles on June 23rd.
Not a remake, nor a remake, sonic origin is a collection of older games compiled so they can be played with the exact same visuals and sounds as the original, or with a little software magic enhanced with bells and whistles like full screen mode or the ability to switch to updated music.

For those who’d rather run around like a madman, there’s also an anniversary mode with unlimited lives and full-screen support. This will be the domain name of my 10 year old twins, if you see one of my online controllers playing it, don’t worry, it’s them.
the best thing is sonic origin The reveal is an adorable animated trailer.use the same frenzy style Sonic Mania When it was first released, the animation captured the spirit of the series as perfectly as possible.
just pay attention sonic originA bit tricky buying plan. $40 gets you a digital standard version of the game, which sounds like a pretty simple port. Add $5 and you get the Digital Deluxe Edition, which adds:
- Rewards “hard” missions
- letterbox background
- Exclusive tracks from Mega Drive Titles
And three additional, under-explained features, described as “characters in the main menu,” “character animations in music playback,” and the ever-mysterious “island camera.”
One day every game will sell its optional features a la carte, and we’ll all be pretty baffled. Until then, will watch this trailer again.
