“2014 will mark a renaissance for Sonic the Hedgehog,” a press invitation from SEGA reads. The company will be hosting an event tomorrow so that announcements and future plans for Sonic can be shared.

Based on the art above Sonic Boom will be one of the highlights of the press gathering. A logical assumption would be that a game or two will be appearing as well.

Just don’t expect news out of the gate – there’s a good chance information will be embargoed.

Warner Bros. Games Montreal, developer of Batman: Arkham Origins and the Wii U version of Batman: Arkham City, has a new game in the works for Nintendo’s console.

Lead game designer Pierre-Luc Foisy lists an “Unannounced Project” on his LinkedIn profile. Along with Wii U, the title is slated for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Given Warner Bros. Montreal’s past, one would think that the project has a chance of being Batman-related. That’s most definitely not confirmed though and is one of many possibilities.

Mighty No. 9 may be heavily inspired by the likes of Mega Man, but with the upcoming game, Keiji Inafune and his team hope to “betray the fans in a good way.” Inafune told Joystiq that they’re looking to try “something unexpected” and “different” while also “keeping that classic Japanese action that people are looking forward to.”

Inafune said:

“Although it has very many similar elements to past titles such as Mega Man, we’re trying to do something new with it. Something different, something that will, in a manner of speaking, betray the fans in a good way. Completely do something unexpected, as well as keeping that classic Japanese action that people are looking forward to.”

Inafune didn’t elaborate beyond this, unfortunately. Fans will simply need to stay tuned for more details, though thankfully, information is released regularly.
