Shortly after Sonic Forces launched, dataminers found that the game had “Sanic” T-shirt content hidden away. It has now officially arrived as free DLC.

Head on over to the Sonic Forces eShop page, and you should quickly see that the DLC can be downloaded. SEGA says that the T-shirts, available for your custom character, feature “beautifully rendered art, and virtual threads organically grown on the snowing peaks of Mt. Fuji many years ago.” At least they’re having fun with it, right?

Potential new DLC / update content found for Sonic Forces

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 32 Comments

When a new game launches, fans tend to pick apart the files and codes in hopes of finding hidden secrets. That’s exactly what happened this week with Sonic Forces. Dataminers went to work and found a couple of interesting things that could be added to the game in the near future.

First, a “Sanic” t-shirt has been found. Sanic has become a meme over the years after one fan drew his interpretation of the character in the Windows Paint app. It would be… interesting to see that design in Sonic Forces, to say the least.

As it tends to do with notable releases, Digital Foundry has taken a look at the technical side of Sonic Forces. The outlet explored all versions of the game, including the Switch edition.

Sonic Forces runs at 720p on Switch similar to the Xbox One version. However, some of the graphics have been heavily reduced in some cases. In Green Hill, for instance, lighting has been toned down.

Updated Sonic Forces Switch file size

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments

Back in September, Amazon Japan had offered up Sonic Forces’ file size on Switch. The retailer said you’d need 7.042GB. Either things have changed slightly since then, or Amazon had the wrong information initially.

Sonic Forces has now arrived on the European Switch eShop. The final size is shown to be 6.6GB. Amazon’s listing wasn’t hugely off, but there is definitely a discrepancy.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
