Sonic Unleashed on Wii being developed by Sonic Rush team

Tyranitar24 | 12 days ago | News | Playstation 3 Wii

The newest Sonic game (Sonic Unleashed), which is coming to the Wii, is being worked on by the same company that also worked on Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure, Dimps. Dimps will code the game and design the stages for it, Patrick Riley revealed. There is also a whole new core of members working on this game, different from the previous Sonic games. The stages in this game will be traditional 3D and side scrolling 3D and the transitions through the game will occur seamlessly. They are bringing towns into the game, which will allow the game to be faster by speaking to different people within the town, and it will not slow down the gameplay.

Riley reveals that development between the 360/PS3 version and the Wii version is split into two development teams, with the 360/PS3 team focused on taking full advantage of what those platforms can offer with no compromise. The Wii version will be different in stage design and controls, "so real fans of the title that have a Wii and a PS3 or 360 might consider buying both, since the stages will be quite different."

He adds that the 360/PS3 version is completely an internal effort, while the Wii version, though still managed by Sonic Team, will be coded and stages designed by Dimps in Japan, who were responsible for Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure.

Funny, this is what I've always wanted Sega to do. Now I know the game will be good. I trust Dimps in their Sonic efforts.

Sonic Rush was great! I'm looking forward to seeing this game. Sonic and the Secret Rings is ok, but not the best. Maybe this next Sonic game will be much better!
