The chaps at TSSZ have spotted a total of six domains for Sonic Adventure 3, indicating a sequel to the Blue Blur’s Dreamcast series may be in the works.
Registered by the French division of hosting company 1&1 Internet, the domains apparently cropped up in late-April, and include the following:
sonicadventure3.com, sonicadventure3.net, sonicadventure3.org, sonicadventure3.info, sonicadventure3.fr, sonicadventure3.eu
Of course, the domains may simply be unofficial and in no way point towards a new Sonic Adventure; currently, they all direct to a default landing not associated with developer SEGA.
Furthermore, previous domain registrations for the series – namely the then-forthcoming Sonic Generations, Sonic Free Riders and Sonic the Hedgehog 4 – originated under domain registration outfit EuroDNS.
Then again, maybe, just maybe, SEGA’s recent re-release of the original Sonic Adventure and the planned HD revamp of its follow-up later this year could very well be a means of whetting the public’s appetite for a full-fledged sequel.
After all, out of all the 3D Sonic games, the Adventure series was undeniably one of the most successful and well-received endeavours to date.
Stay tuned to PSU.com for more details as they break.
