After a number of rumours surfaced regarding Sonic Colours, SEGA officially announced today in the inaugural episode of Sonic Central that the decade-old title will receive a remaster.
The remaster will feature plenty of brand new content, like alternative clothing for Sonic to wear and a new “Rival Rush Mode”, where the player can race against Metal Sonic to unlock bonus content in the game.
Accelerate to adrenaline-pumping super speed, zoom across challenging worlds, and maneuver through hazardous obstacles. Time your attacks perfectly to charge your boost and reach Super Sonic speeds.
