Sega is preparing major announcements linked to Sonic's anniversary, which celebrate in 2021 no less than 30 years since his debut with the founder Sonic the Hedgehog for Megadrive, the 16-bit console from the Japanese company.
Sega has assured that he has special projects underway for the name, but unfortunately it is not yet time to make announcements: Ivo Gerscovich, brand manager at Sega, has indicated that the details of the anniversary will be revealed later.
The executive has stated that "there will be exciting news" in a recent interview. In fact, he assures that they are eager to share this news with the community of followers of the blue hedgehog.
However, Gerscovich also summons the community to be pending. Perhaps the hardest thing for Sega fans is that no specific deadline has been set.
With the cancellation of major events this year, Like E3, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the usual milestones of the videogame world calendar no longer have fixed dates, since almost all companies have confirmed that they will make their announcements at different times of the year without adjusting to the predetermined events traditional.
Presumably, it is in the second semester of the year when we begin to have news, since given the historical relevance of the character it is legitimate to assume that Might try to have products, events and surprises for fans during the most important moments of 2021. Of course, if there is any kind of video game or act in the first months of next year, we can expect it to be announced at least during the end of this 2020.
On the other hand, after the success of the hedgehog movie, we cannot rule out that in addition to events and video games, 2021 is not also the year to start a new film project that helps renew the presence of the hedgehog outside the console circuits.
