Bioware Dev Confirms Details in Podcast
With Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood out today in North America and both professional and community reviews showing cautious optimism, a sequel may make sense. We’ve already reported on the possibility of one, with those words coming straight from the mouth of Dorian Kieken, Bioware Associate Producer.
Now, Kieken has told SavyGamer in its latest podcast that the storyline for the next Sonic Chronicles is already being written. Kieken says that while several options are being considered, there’s still a pretty clear direction. That direction’s groundwork may have been laid out in the ending of Chronicles, widely spread throughout the community and reported on here.
There’s no word from Sega officially, but at least BioWare seems to think it’s happening. We’ll keep you informed of what happens in the coming weeks and months.

Wow! That’s awesome! Just a few more hours for me!
Great,i hope they keep Eggman as the main villian(as the end of Chronicles implies) untill the very end and that someone who takes his place as a playable character could be one of the Chaotix(i say Espio or Vector),Fang(hey,i can hope) or even Metal Sonic.
Shut UP, Rob, Chronicles comes out where I live today, I’m picking it up in abut 7 more hours! Anways, I hope that they do increase the PCs. Maybe double the amount? Add in Espio, Vector, Charmy, Mighty, Silver, Blaze, Marine, Chaos, Tikal, G-Mel, and someone new. And don’t make Eggman a PC! Fang, Metal, and others could be bosses too!
if silver in the 2nd SC that will be Awsonme
SPOILER OF THE ENDING AHEAD
I’m pretty sure there’ll be a sequel, the ending of The Dark Brotherhood was pretty much a big tease for it. Sonic even said: ‘I guess we’ll have to wait for the next episode.’
Sljcoaaatr / Soul:well sorry about that but you know that there are bound to be major spoiler talk about the game on the internet so i suggest you play the game by yourself.
Even though i would like to have Blaze playable too as she is one of my favorites,i’am not sure if i wanna go trough all that dimension/future plothole crap again that she,Silver and Nega are part of,though i am sure Bioware could fix that.
I want to. I really want to know what’s going on in this little time paradox caused by Rush, 06 and rivals.
Rob: It’s okay. I’m getting it in about an hour. Before I heard about the Gizoids, and Echidnas, I was kinda hoping that it would clear up the time plotholes. Since I hear the game ends in “to be continued” I would assume that not everything is completely answered? So, if Bioware wanted, they could somehow tie in Silver & Co.
A second one? I don’t even have the first one!
My f ing Gamestop that I PREORDEREDit from DIDN’T have it! Thay told me to “try again in a few weeks.” Their shipment never came in! I got po’d, went to Toysrus across the street, THEY didn’t have it. Walked down FYE, NOPE! Same for EB Games, Game Collector, Electronic Super, Best Buy, and Circuit City! :`( Looks like I aint getting Chronicles for a while!…
@ Fairfieldfencer: At the end of Silver’s story of ’06, it’s revealed how Blaze was sent to the other dimesnion, but I don’t know how Eggman Nega, and Blaze’s Guardian Status happened, though.
Sequel? Awesome!
I can easily explain that General? Interested in a long theory?
Let the rejects have a go Bioware Mighty Fang Bean Bark and Ray need their turn in the spotlight now!!!!
Got that right, Wolly!
If this does have Silver in it, I think he would make a good “defence” character. I’m not sure if these exist in RPGs, but here’s my idea. Using when an enemy projectile like a missile comes at you, you use his psychkinesis to hurl it back at them. So more of a support character really. SLJ, try Play.com here. It’s where I got mine.

OMFG, wait a sec, let’s take ONE second to think here. SPOILER WARNING.
OMG ok, Sonic Chronicles ends with Sonic and Friends Rushing out of the Twilight Cage and returning to world, UNFORTUNATELY finding out that eggman has COMPLETELY taken over the world, creating Eggman-Land, if you will. Now let’s think, at the end of the game, we have all 7 chaos emeralds, and then the game ends with the Eggman-Land bit, and apparently Sonic Unleashed BEGINS with Sonic having the 7 chaos emeralds battling eggman, might it be possible that Sonic Unleashed is a sort of sequel of Sonic Chronicles, and that the Sonic Chronicles 2 theory be another story in the line-up….. just some speculation XD
No way. Unleashed and Chronicles were written at the same time by different people. There’s no way this is a sequel to Chronicles. Besides, have ever seen the hero deal with two big problems at once? Sonic would have to get rid of his werewolf form and take down Eggman’s empire.
Y’now I have the slightest feeling that shade might die in the SC2 because I highly doubt that theres going to be another ekidna other than knuckles by the end of this series. So she either dies at the start/finish or desides to return to the twilight cage.
This game’s set ahead of the current series. Shade can’t have a major role in any others without messing things up completely. Perhaps as a bonus character or something if we’re lucky.
I knew this was coming out. It’s meant to have Blaze and Silver in it.
I’ve already knew that Eggman would turn on Sonic right after he left, but I doubt it’s all his fault. The Argus event and the other specie of the twilight cage should have something to do with this and the plot should begin with everyone crashing and Sonic lost from the group and lost his memories or just keep it like that. New characters should at least include Vector and hopefully this game will come this year.
personally, i think (although improbable) Emerl would be a nice touch. he’s just so awesome.
It would make scence if Sliver and blaze where in SC2 [Spoiler]:Because when they came back they where in the future
I think it should be like a mini version of Sonic Heroes XD It doesn’t matter if u dnt like the teams these r just random choosers >:(

Ryan, with your stupid story above, why would the second Chronicles NOT start with some sort of Eggman battle? And there is NO…NO…WAY that the Archie characters could be in a Sonic game. And when Sally first appeared and Sonic was like *OMG*, why would that be a surprise? In the comics they’re all still a group, they’re still making them, they’re still hanging out. In fact, they’re ALL there.
That was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read. And you seemed to put *gets hammer* next to Amy’s name an awful lot of times.
