Initially announced last July as part of Sonic’s 25th anniversary celebrations at San Diego Comic-Con, Sonic Mania is a re-imagining of the classic Sega Genesis/Megadrive titles of the early ‘90s. Staying true to it’s roots, Sonic Mania is divided into several acts, each concluding with a battle with Dr Robotnik (sorry, I refuse to call him Eggman). The development team has a degree of Pedigree to it, including alumni of various recent ports of classic Sonic titles in the form of Sonic CD and Sonic 1 and 2.
