SEGA can take Sonic in different directions, but don’t expect “Call of Sonic”

Sonic will always be known for his platforming gameplay, but the series has dabbled in other areas. We’ve seen Sonic in racing, sports, and pinball titles, the Olympics, and even education experiences.
There are no limitations as to where SEGA can take Sonic. Well, except for the shooter genre.
SEGA global Sonic brand director David Corless said in a Nintendo of Europe interview that “there are different directions we can take Sonic” – just don’t expect anything like “Call of Sonic”.
Corless stated:
What, Call of Sonic? The Deadly Edition? (laughs) No, of course there are different directions we can take Sonic. The Sonic Racing series has been a huge success and I think those two titles have really shown what we can do with Sonic outside of platforming. You have to be careful though, you have to make sure you’re complementing the core Sonic experience and you’re staying true to the character. So no Call of Sonic, no…!
