![]() But in case you somehow missed it, check it out below.įor those who were wanting a bit more of the classic Sonic iconography in the first film, it looks like your prayers are being answered. Sure, you’ve watched it ten times already by rewinding the stream. And of course, we’ve got the original muscle flexer, Knuckles the Echidna. We’ve got Sonic! We’ve got Tails! We’ve got Robotnik lookin’ just as snazzy as ever. After being confirmed, and seeing all sorts of set photos leak onto the Internet, there was only one thing that could begin to satiate the appetite of a Sonic fan – a first look at the film, packaged in a convenient advertisement video clocking in at just over two minutes.Įarlier today at The Game Awards, that appetizer was finally delivered on a platter, and boy was it worth the wait. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 hits theaters on April 8, 2022.After the unexpected success of the original Sonic the Hedgehog film from Paramount, it was a pretty safe assumption that we’d be getting a sequel. What elements Sonic 2's movie adaption takes from other games exactly will need to be seen when it comes out in April next year. The Sonic 2 trailer sees Sonic getting ready to run down a building, standing on top of it on a clear moonlit night, which reminds many fans of the opening cutscene of Sonic Adventure. However, fans aren't just getting a movie based on Sonic 3, it seems. ![]() Most likely, this will happen before the movie's finale, leading all of the series' prominent characters to come together to stop the final threat. It may be a light spoiler for the movie, but it's shown that the movie Knuckles is working with Robotnik, so there's most likely going to be a scene where Knuckles realizes he's been tricked by him. ![]() The simple fact that this movie is based on Sonic 3 is most definitely enough to excite plenty of Sonic fans, as Sonic 3 & Knuckles is most commonly seen as the best of the classic 2D Sonic titles by a majority of the franchise's supporters. This would leave a Sonic 2 movie without a plot, but luckily Sonic 3 introduced one that seems to have been used to bridge the gap almost flawlessly. Sonic 2 was mostly without a story, with the instruction manuals only going into the story of how Sonic met Tails if at all. While the movie is called Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and is set to primarily feature Tails, there wasn't too much of a direction to go on from there in regards to the second game. A series of shots in the trailer confirms exactly what this is meant to be referencing - Ice Cap Zone from Sonic 3 & Knuckles, as Sonic is seen snowboarding away from robots just as he had done in the game itself. One has them enter a pub out in the cold as they're bundled up in jackets and winter clothing, and another has Sonic re-directing one of Robotnik's missiles at him as he, Tails, and Jim Carrey's Eggman are all in some sort of icy cave. In three shots, Sonic and Tails are seen in an almost arctic landscape. There could be a chance that this is the Sonic movie's version of Angel Island, but there are a few shots that are even more interesting. There's a shot featuring Sonic in front of what seems to be a Chaos Emerald temple, with waterfalls surrounding it. While the way Knuckles is revealed, stopping Sonic's super-powered Spin Dash and throwing him into the ground, is most definitely a homage to the opening of Sonic 3, there's far more to be found in the trailer that shows that this is the direction this movie is going towards.

This allows Knuckles to steal all of the Chaos Emeralds for Dr. The story deals with Sonic and Tails going to investigate Angel Island, and quickly being stopped by Knuckles the Echidna, who somehow managed to hit Sonic so hard he was thrown out of his Super Form. While simple, the classic Genesis title is one of the series' first attempts at having a plot for the blue hedgehog's adventures. Many fans who have seen the trailer may also recognize the story beats from Sonic's third game. While the movie being titled Sonic the Hedgehog 2 makes fans think of the second game, it seems the movie is aiming to be a bit more like Sonic 3 & Knuckles. After fans have been wanting to see what this movie is turning out to be for a while, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 has shown off incredible visuals, a jam-packed story, and the faces of two new characters. While The Game Awards brought plenty of new game announcements and reveals, it also brought the trailer for a certain highly anticipated movie.
