Sonic Colors: Ultimate

Following the recent announcement of Sonic Colors: Ultimate, Japanese magazine Famitsu shared an interview with a couple of key people behind the franchise. Creative officer Takashi Iizuka and creative director Kazuyuki Hoshino both chatted with the magazine.

Iizuka spoke in depth about Sonic Colors: Ultimate, discussing why the Wii game was brought back, the new Tails Save gameplay system, and more. We also get to hear a bit from Iizuka and Hoshino about the series’ 30th anniversary.

Here’s our full translation:

System: Switch
Release date: May 21, 2021
Developer: Nintendo / Grezzo
Publisher: Nintendo


Miitopia is an adventure where you can insert yourself, your friends, your family, your boss, your favorite comedian…. really anyone into the game and adventure alongside them. Different roles are needed throughout the journey – kings, townsfolk, guards, terribly evil overlords. You get the gist. There are many faces that you’ll need to create, or if you want to you can stick to the default ones provided, but who wants to do that in a game where some of the best fun is had in beating up an iteration of your high school bully and making the hyper child in the starting town into your own little brother because it’s just the perfect fit for him? And so what if you make the king into the literal Henry the VIII? Plenty of people do that, I’m sure! Don’t let anything stop you. Insert your friends, insert your foes, and just have fun with it. This games shines most when you let go and embrace the silliness of it all.

You can really feel that E3 is right around the corner. There was plenty of gaming news over the past few days, including presentations dedicated to Dragon Quest and Sonic.

In the case of Dragon Quest, Square Enix prepared a slew of different announcements. The ones we’re focused on at the moment are Dragon Quest XII, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, Dragon Quest Treasures, and Dragon Quest X Offline. SEGA had its own announcements for Sonic, including a brand new Switch game for 2022, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, and Sonic Origins.

With everything shown during these broadcasts, what was your personal highlight? How did you feel about the presentations overall? Let us know in the comments below.
