Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II

Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II is a 2-D platformer for next-gen consoles, and marks the 2nd episode of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 and is currently under early development. It was announced saying it will have new zones and bosses and many other things we haven't seen before plus it was said that thanks to the sales of Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I the game will likely have a bigger budget. It is tied into Sonic CD in an unknown way, but Sonic CD is defined as the game's spiritual prequel. There will also be a new physics system in the game since Ken Balough said fans gave bad reviews over the physics in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I as well as a brand new graphics engine.

Trivia

 * Unlike Episode 1, this game will be released (apart from Xbox Live, PSN and iOS devices) for the Android Market and Windows Phone. This episode will not be released for WiiWare.
 * This is the first game since Sonic the Hedgehog 2 to promote Tails as a playable character (not counting the digital rerelease of Sonic the Hedgehog CD).
 * Also in creativity for promoting Tails, the art and stylings for the game's boxart represents Tails' two tails in place of the Number 2.
 * Recently, Ken Balough, brand manager of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 has hinted a Wii U release, stating that just because it is not on the Wii doesn't mean that SEGA isn't supporting Nintendo platforms.
 * Though Sonic and Tails' modern counterparts are starring in this game, the first trailer uses Classic Tails' tails from his CGI artwork in Sonic Generations.
 * Takashi Iizuka has stated that sometime after the game's release, a "New Modern Sonic" will be unvieled. There are no details yet on what this rumor means. Ken Balough, brand manager of Sonic the Hedgehog 4, has requested that we set this rumor aside for now while the game is being developed.
