In a recent interview with Game Informer (issue #346), Sonic Team creative officer Takashi Iizuka stated that the purpose of these sequences is so players can experience the games "as one epic story mode." Players can look forward to never-before-seen moments, such as the first meeting between Sonic and Tails prior to the start of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and the initial encounter between Knuckles and Robotnik, before Sonic 3 & Knuckles. It definitely seems like a neat incentive for players that have revisited these games numerous times in the past.
For fans introduced to Sonic through the recent movies, Sonic Origins is looking like the perfect way to see why the character has proven so enduring. The four games included in Sonic Origins first debuted on Sega Genesis and Sega CD between 1991 and 1994. Despite releasing decades ago, those older games hold up remarkably well, and it will be interesting to see if the new features in anniversary mode make them even better. The new cutscene above certainly seems to bode well!
Sonic Origins is set to release June 23rd on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
