Classic Sonic is back in some style, bringing everything that was great about the best Genesis games into 3D-rendered 4K. While we’ve had a few similar side-scrolling games in recent times, notably the superlative Sonic Mania and the rather divisive Sonic the Hedgehog 4, Sonic Superstars is particularly exciting because it reunites Sonic with his original character designer – Naoto Ohshima. It’s Ohshima’s studio Arzest that’s worked with Sonic Team here, and the result, while not the greatest Sonic game of all time, is certainly one of the better ones.
