Sega has unveiled Sonic Rumble, a multiplayer battle royale game for mobile devices that evokes the thrilling gameplay of titles like Fall Guys. This fast-paced game pits 32 players against each other as they race and jump through levels adorned with iconic Sonic imagery. While Sonic Rumble shares similarities with Mediatonic’s Fall Guys, it stands out with unique levels that seamlessly blend Sonic’s signature elements and nostalgic 2D platformer sections. A wide array of Sonic characters are playable and can be further customized with in-game items, adding an extra layer of personalization to the gameplay experience. Players eager to try Sonic Rumble can participate in a closed beta scheduled from May 24 to May 26. Those interested can sign up on the game’s official website. Sega aims to release the full version of Sonic Rumble sometime this fall, giving fans of the speedy blue hedgehog something to look forward to. The announcement of Sonic Rumble comes as no surprise, as rumors and leaks have been circulating for quite some time. Well-known Sega leaker Midori first hinted at the project in January, while Insider Gaming provided further details in February. While their descriptions of the gameplay and the inclusion of gold rings as the main currency proved accurate, the initial reports mistakenly predicted a different release window and game title. In addition to Sonic Rumble, fans can also anticipate the release of Sonic x Shadow Generations and the mobile version of Sonic Mania Plus later this year. With multiple Sonic projects on the horizon, 2024 promises to be an exciting year for the beloved franchise.
