Sonic Origins Heading to PC With Original Games Remastered!

I’m a big Sonic fan, albeit, even I admit that most of the games were a bit hit and miss. The original three still hold up great though, as does that truly stunning Sonic Mania. Sega clearly knows this and has been listening to their fans, as it seems they’ve put the modern Sonic engine to task and remastered the original Sonic games. that’s right, SEGA has just announced Sonic Origins, a new collection set to feature Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic CD, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Sonic Origins

The games will be a nice upgrade from the older 16-bit builds. The mechanics have been fine-tuned, the graphics and animations cleaned up, and a wave of new features have been added. What’s more, while you can play the “Classic” versions, you can also play in “Anniversary” mode, and even have widescreen enabled too! How awesome does that sound? Very, that’s how awesome it sounds.

Sonic Origins will release on all major platforms on the 23rd of June. If you can’t wait that long to see what’s on offer, check out the official trailer below!

What SEGA Had to Say

Celebrate the games that started it all. Sonic Origins is a brand new collection including Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic CD, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Play as Sonic, Tails, & Knuckles and immerse yourself in the fully remastered gameplay, tie the games together with all new animations, explore added features, modes, and more! Sonic Origins arrives June 23rd, 2022! Check out more here.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
