Sonic Rumble Global Release Date Announcement Trailer

On April 9, Sega took to Twitter (X) to share the exciting news alongside a thrilling new trailer showcasing gameplay highlights. As the first multiplayer party game in the iconic Sonic series, Sonic Rumble invites up to 32 players to engage in fierce competition across diverse levels and dynamic modes. Players will embody beloved characters from the series, navigating a whimsical toy world crafted by none other than Dr. Eggman himself.

Sega emphasized that Sonic Rumble is entirely free-to-play, dispelling concerns about potential pay-to-win mechanics.
