New Sonic Unleashed trailer and info released

Posted on July 16th, 2008 at 11:24 EDT

SEGA has unveiled a brand new trailer for its latest entry in the venerable Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, Sonic Unleashed.

The footage itself showcases the much talked about ‘Werehedgehog’ gameplay mechanic, depicting Sonic’s transformation into his beastly alter-go following an encounter with Dr. Eggman before battling against groups of enemies.

In addition, a recent interview posted by Joystiq reveals that the game will take place in a variety of ‘real world’ locations, including Europe, Greece, China and Africa. Furthermore, aside from the addition of a second character for use in various mini games, players will find themselves controlling Sonic in both regular and Werehog form for the entire game.

Lastly, speaking in regards to the possibility of a demo, Producer Patrick Riley commented, "Yes, the current plan is to release a playable demo shortly before or right around release."

Check out the trailer below.

Sonic Unleashed is scheduled for release in November 2008.

2d view is a neat idea. but it still looks like the same crap that people hate. The game pratically plays itselfs. Not like the genesis versions at all where you actually had to have a brain to win.  In the genesis versions you had to actually trying to hit the enemies this you just keep hitting X and it does the rest of the work for you. I still think this is gonna get bad reviews just like Sonic The Hedgehog.

This game looked GREAT until the part where he turned into the wolf.  What a great way to slow down the action on a seemingly faster-paced game.  Good job SEGA, are you purposly trying to piss us off?

Sonic 06 wasn't that bad but I don't see how Sonic Adventure and SA2 were great while the sequels had poor cameras,glitchs and other krap which the mighty Dreamcast didn't have
