SEGA has kicked off a number of Sonic titles across the Switch / 3DS / Wii U eShops. Games like Sonic Mania, Team Sonic Racing, and even Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD (due to the character’s cameo) are included.
Here’s the full lineup:
The Wonderful 101 currently exists as a standalone title, but that’s not due to a lack of interest from developer PlatinumGames. After the game missed out on having success during the Wii U era, it’s returning on Switch and other platforms thanks to a new Kickstarter campaign. The $50,000 target was quickly reached and over $1.5 million has been raised in total.
The Kickstarter campaign is important not only because of what it means now, but also for what it could lead to in the future. Director Hideki Kamiya has interest in creating a sequel and even has ideas while PlatinumGames head Atsushi Inaba is supportive of such a thing happening in the future.
Kamiya told Nintendo Everything in an interview before the Kickstarter campaign began:
Cosen is bringing the third-person action-adventure title Forward to the Sky to Switch, the company announced today. It’s due out later in 2020.
We have the following overview and trailer for the game:
