Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice, featuring the triumphant return of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Sticks, will be available exclusively on Nintendo 3DS later this year.
Developed by Sanzaru Games Inc., Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice is a single player game with collaborative gameplay components that shares key characters, events, and lore of the Sonic Boom universe. Players will see Sonic and his friends in familiar settings as they embark on a brand new adventure to battle Dr. Eggman as well as an all-new super villain, D-Fekt. The team’s adventures will bring them to locations both familiar and new as they explore, race and protect their world.
To create an entirely new experience, Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice will infuse fire and ice elements throughout gameplay, enabling new abilities to play out in special character moves and interactions with environments. The new title also delivers gameplay that enables players to run through the game at top speed, or take their time with deeper exploration and puzzle play.
New to the title is the introduction of Bot Racing, a supplemental game tied to the single player story with multiplayer gameplay. The new Bot Racing feature is an extension of Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice that is purely about racing and speed, where a user will unlock character themed Bots to challenge friends on fast courses or tracks.

Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice is due out this holiday in North America. Europe is getting the game this winter, where Nintendo will handle sales, marketing and distribution.

Entries on GameFly indicate that Nintendo will be handling the release of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games – at least in North America. The retailer has Nintendo listed as the publisher of both the Wii U and 3DS versions.

Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games was the first entry in the series Nintendo published worldwide. Prior to that, SEGA was in charge of publishing in all regions except for Japan, where the Big N handled things.

Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games’ new roster additions thus far

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 5 Comments

With the initial footage we’ve seen of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, we have a pretty good idea about some of the new roster additions. Characters like Nabbit and Diddy Kong were shown, for example. The Nintendo Direct footage also gave a brief look at Zazz from Sonic Lost World (see the image above), along with Rouge the Bat and Jet the Hawk.

Thanks to Anthony for the tip.
