Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was originally planned to have a time travel theme

At the Digital Dragons event in Poland this week, Hirokazu Yasuhara hosted a special presentation. Yasuhara was a designer and director on various Sonic games.

We’ve already seen early Sonic the Hedgehog 2 map sketches, including a look at the cut Genocide City level. But as it turns out, those weren’t the only images Yasuhara shared. One shows that Sonic 2 was originally planned to have a time travel theme while another couple show design sketches from before Sonic 1. Take a look at the latest images below.
