Drift

This article is about the technique used to get through tight turns. For the game, see Sonic Drift.

Sonic spins while turning, allowing him to turn tight corners at high speed.

— Instruction booklet, Sonic Generations

The Drift^[1]^[2] (ドリフト, Dorifuto^?), also called the Sonic Drift^[3] (ドリフト^[4], Dorifuto^?, lit. "Drift"), is a move that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a technique in which the user makes sharp turns while moving at high speeds.

Description

When performing the Drift, the user creates friction to one of their sides while either sliding or spinning at high speed, causing their direction to shift rapidly in a smooth curve without losing much momentum.

In gameplay, the Drift is useful for the player when they have get through tight turns at high speeds. In addition, it can be combined with the Boost to amplify its speed and power.

Game appearances

Sonic Unleashed

The move first appeared in both the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 version and the Wii/PlayStation 2 version of Sonic Unleashed, where it is referred to as the Sonic Drift.^[3] It is only usable by Sonic in the gameplay of the daytime Stages. When drifting in this game, Sonic leans down on one arm while pushing his feet sideways in the opposite direction.

By drifting, the player is able to recharge the Ring Energy Gauge/Boost Gauge, though the mechanics differ between game versions: On the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 version, the Ring Energy Gauge is constantly charged while drifting, but only in small amounts equivalent to the amount of energy required to boost. In the Wii/PlayStation 2 version, drifting charges more of the Boost Gauge at once, but only if it is pulled off correctly for long enough, which is referred to as a "Drift Bonus."

To perform the Sonic Drift in gameplay, the player has to use the following controls:

PS2	Wii			PS3	Xbox 360
PS2	Wii Remote + Nunchunk	Classic Controller	GameCube Controller	PS3	Xbox 360
+ L Stick left/right	+ Control Stick left/right	+ L Stick left/right	+ Control Stick left/right	/ or + L Stick left/right	/ or + L Stick left/right

Sonic Colors

In the Wii version of Sonic Colors and its remaster, Sonic Colors: Ultimate, the move's name was changed to Drift.^[1] In these games, it is performed by Sonic, the Mii (Wii version only), and the Virtual Hedgehogs. When drifting this time around, the user leans down on one arm while pushing their feet sideways in the opposite direction, much like in Sonic Unleashed, except that the user shoots rainbow-colored sparks from their feet (similar to the Boost).

In gameplay, the Drift is only useable in parts with curved points where the Drift icon is displayed on the screen. While drifting in this game, the move is more "slippery" and difficult to use than in Sonic Unleashed, but the player earns 3.000 points per-second with a maximum of 100.000 points per Act. It can also be used to crash into enemies and objects. In Super Sonic's case, he cannot use Drift in the "Drift sections", but he can use the Super Sonic Boost easily and with more control.

To use the Drift in gameplay, the player has to use the following controls:

Wii				Xbox One	PS4	Switch	PC
Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Remote & Nunchuk	Classic Controller	GameCube controller	Xbox One	PS4	Switch	PC
+ left/right	+ Control Stick left/right	+ L Stick left/right	+ Control Stick left/right

Sonic Generations

In the console/PC version of Sonic Generations, the move is referred as the Drift,^[2] and is only usable to Modern Sonic. When drifting in this game, Sonic revs into a Spin Attack as he turns, much like when charging the Spin Dash.

Modern Sonic drifting on his Snowboard, from the console/PC version of *Sonic Generations*.

In Sonic Generations, the Boost Gauge will be charged constantly in small doses while drifting, much like in Sonic Unleashed. The Drift is also easier to control than in Sonic Unleashed and can be used to attack enemies. Although, when using the Drift as Super Sonic, the aura of the move will not be changed from blue to golden. In addition, Sonic can also use Drift when riding a Snowboard or a Cart.

To use the move in gameplay, the player has to use the following controls:

Xbox 360	PS3	PC

In other media

IDW Publishing

Main article: Drift (IDW)

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series published by IDW Publishing, the Drift is a move used exclusively by Sonic the Hedgehog. It first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog #4, specifically during a battle Sonic had with a battalion of Badniks.

Trivia

In the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 version of Sonic Unleashed, it is possible to cross water surfaces without using the Boost if the player simply uses the Drift and constantly alternates Sonic's direction, much like snaking in other games with a drifting mechanic.

The Avatar's Drift-like maneuver, from *Sonic Forces*.

In Sonic Forces, a Drift-like maneuver is used by the Avatar. This maneuver is an automatic move used by the Avatar in the Avatar Stages and Tag Stages when they have to get through a sharp turn.
