Sonic 4, or Something More?
Below we have for your review a scan from the latest edition of Nintendo Accion magazine that claims to know something about a new Sonic. We already known plenty about a new Sonic, in the form of Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I. But what if there’s something else cooking?
In the magazine’s Top 10 of the Month segment, writer Juan Carlos Garcia writes, translated, to expect something new in the Sonic realm, but doesn’t elaborate on what it is:
Sonic will have a new game this autumn… but I didn’t say anything.
Why might this be important? For the moment, the assumption’s been that Episode I of Sonic 4 would be release come the Summertime–and early Summer, at that. Could there be something secondary in the works?
Right now, the smart money should bet that this may be nothing more than a Sonic 4 reference. But just in case, we’ll keep a look for a possible October surprise. In the meantime, you can take a look at the scan below. Thanks to Sonic Paradise’s Jack Wallace and Seraphinprincess for helping us out with this story.

Hm, interesting.
If this actually turns out to be true, then I bet it will be a Sonic spinoff, or handheld 2D Sonic game sequel to Rush or Rivals.
Please ,
either heroes 2 or unleashed 2
No way is it anything big. It’s probably just Sonic 4, or maybe another collection of some sort. If it’s anything big it would’ve been announced by now. Gotta build the hype, right?
…Has anyone considered this may be episode 2? I mean, really.
Chronicles 2? Seems likely.
If it is episode 2, then maybe they will reveal it for Autumn after Sonic 4, episode 1 is released, don’tcha think, guys?
Yea I agree with SpeedingHedgehiog and Sonication. Its totally episode 2.
If it is a new sonic game, SEGA America would have been marketing about it for a year, not in few months.
Ep 2 Because Its close to Ep 1 and still hasnt been announced…..But im stll wating for my 2nd chronicles
Why would they have been marketing the new game when they had Sonic 4 to leak to us slowly? One thing at a time. Or two, given ASR. Which means they’re due to announce something knew soon. Anyway, I’d be surprised if they DIDN’T squeeze out a new retail release late this year. Probably from Sonic Team.
It’s probably Sonic 4: Episode 2.
Yeah, there’s no way this is a “main series” game. It probably gonna be another party-style or sports game, or possibly a handheld one.
might be Ep2. or another 3d sonic game. who knows.
If its a new game and not Sonic 4, then it can’t be 2D. Maybe its another 3D game or chronicles 2.
episode 2 is expected.. it must be something else. sonics 20th anni game
I’m gonna join the rest of the crowd and place my bets on Episode 2. In the downtime of waiting for certification for Ep. 1, they could well be working on Ep. 2 as we speak.
Of course, another non-main title is likely as well. Regardless, a new Sonic is a new Sonic, so we’ll see.
My best bet is Sonic Chronicles 2
Unleashed 2- Not enough marketing.
Heroes 2…not likely at all. Not enough folk like Heroes. Plus its been YEARS. Would’ve been one by now.
Chronicles was a let down RPG, no real purpose in choosing what u say, fights were basic and relied on slow special moves. Poor music and sounds, final boss sucked, cutscenes were sub-par. Plot was a rip off from the archie comics.Only reason to fund another one is for story and they need to just do a Sonic 06 and just say this story didn’t even happen.
Episode 2 is likely.
A handheld is possible. Maybe not a Rush 3 or Rivals 3.
Well, this is a nintendo magazine, maybe its a new DS Title, like Sonic Rush 3 or something diffrent with the name Sonic on it.
No way am I waiting til October if it is Sonic 4… I hate it when games are announced way too early and then you have to wait months and months for it to release.
Im really loving these updates and I think this new sonic secret thing is gonna hopefully be Sonic the hedgehog 4: Episode 2
I hope or better a new 3d game
Guys, if I were you, I wouldn’t take this seriously.
Nintendo Acción is not a very reliable magazine and its editors have already committed several errors (as example, even claimed that the Jump Super Stars was going out in Europe (they did a report and all), and we know what was the only market where it was released).
As far as I’m concerned, I prefer to take this with a pinch of salt.
Unleashed 2- Not enough marketing.
Heroes 2…not likely at all. Not enough folk like Heroes. Plus its been YEARS. Would’ve been one by now.

A handheld is possible. Maybe not a Rush 3 or Rivals 3.
Maybe it’s a new game called SONIC v.s Espanio magazine editors!
Another Mario & Sonic game? Maybe?
Sonic 4: Episode 2. If not, Heroes 2 or something close to it. Knowing what Hayes said, and that E3 is coming up, if wouldn’t be surprising.
SOA shills don’t know what they are talking about just like the guy who namedropped Tikal and Sonic Chaos. Chronicles 2 is a sure bet, Bioware has a lot to prove as the last game was a shoddy tech demo of a game.
please be sonic unleashed 2
If I recall correctly, these were the first guys to hint at M&S Winter Olympics, so I don’t think we can immediately ignore this…
No sorry it’s not Unleashed 2, releasing anything like that this fall would be counterproductive for their efforts with Sonic 4. Chronicles 2 is a sure bet
Rush 3 please.
I hope it’s not anything big, I already don’t have enough money to go around this year.
