Sonic the Hedgehog is making a return this year it seems, according to a leak by a known Sonic tiptser. The 3D game is currently codenamed ‘Sonic Excursion’ and will release in November for current and next-gen formats.

NeoGAF cited a source called Wentos on SegaBits who has supposedly leaked accurate information on every Sonic game since Unleashed. While the person has a long track record, please do treat the below as rumour for now.

The source stated that the game will launch in November for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC, 3DS and PlayStation 4.

Interestingly, the source adds that the game is also coming out on “Xbox Infinite”. Could this be the name of Microsoft’s new rig after all?

Wentos said, “This past weekend I was able to watch a couple of demonstrations on Sonic Team’s upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog game, currently titled “Sonic Excursion.” In all they had two levels to show off which all four of the playable characters the story will focus on were able to play through.

“The first level is called “Shattered Heights” and is similar to the Sonic Generations incarnation of Speed Highway. Very New York themed. We were told the level was five minutes long, but they spent about fifteen minutes showing us parts of the stage’s design, focusing on the lighting and shadows and how lighting was one of the main focuses for this game’s design”.

Sonic Excursion apparently lets players control Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy, and Wentos allegedly saw a second stage called Lunar Caverns, and added that the 3DS version of the game will not be created by developer DIMPS as, “Sega has ended their relationship with them.”


------------------
- Level titled “Shattered Heights” will be reminiscent of New York
- Will consist of Sonic and Tails breaking through tall buildings as humans gasp in horror
- Sonic and Tails communicate to each other in every level and discuss surroundings
- Each character can access parts the other character can’t
- Developers aim to make a Sonic Generations that played like the Genesis titles
- will feature Sonic, Tails, Eggman, Knuckles, and Amy Rose
- will also include some sort of Magical necklace.
- Emblems will make a return
- Levels will include S rank missions, “Collect all Red Ring” missions, and side missions for every character
- due out on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC, 3DS, PlayStation 4, and the next Xbox
- due out November 2013
- 3DS version will not be handled by Dimps

Isn't Sonic Dimensions a engine or are you talking about a different game?

What did Jkid say?
He said the news was bullshit, he didn't say anything about the game.

And I didn't really believe this game was gonna happen anyway.
