Sonic: Lost World features competitive multiplayer, off-screen play on

4.6
Sonic: Lost World will have a few platform-specific distinctions on Wii U and 3DS. The former version will support off-TV play and a "two player support mode," while the 3DS game will include "exclusive Special Stages and Color Powers unique to Nintendo 3DS," according to Sega.

Both versions of Sonic: Lost World will offer competitive multiplayer modes, though Sega has yet to explain them in detail.

Sonic: Lost World will launch on Wii U and 3DS some time later this year as part of a new partnership between Sega and Nintendo.

BDB I thought Sonic would be SingePlayer for ever! Pretty cool change :)


Well there was the classic Sonic games, Sonic Adventure XD, Sonic Adventure 2 battle, Sonic Battle, Sonic Generations, a few DS games and then this game. Sonic has mostly had multiplayer to some sort of aspect, competitive would have to be the racing game like Sonic Free Riders.


I didn't really enjoy the Sonic Racing game, I'd rather keep it classic :)


Oh no I'm right there with you but that was more of an example of the competitive play for Sonic.

I've never really been a fan of the series, maybe I'll give this a shot.

The off screen play will be nice for those times when I am to lazy to turn on the TV, and this game looks very promising.

Frog I can't really imagine a competitive sonic multi-player. I only ever bought the games for the campaign anyways when I used to play Nintedo consoles. Well that was because there was only a single-player option then anyways :p


Me neither, cant wait to see it though.

It will more and likely play out like it did either in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, or like Sonic Generations.

NinjaWizard This is one of the few games I would want to get a Wii U for.


I might give it a try, I enjoyed Sonic Generations so I'm sure this game will be just as good.
