Bear in mind Sonic Chronicles: The Darkish Brotherhood? Perhaps you do not for varied causes, however the DS recreation was the primary ever Sonic the Hedgehog RPG — and the final.
Nonetheless, in a current interview with Good Vibes Gaming, Sonic Group boss Takashi Iizuka spoke about his want to make an RPG starring Sonic, admitting that he has requested himself “Why have not we finished a Sonic RPG in all this time?”. It looks as if Iizuka-san might need forgotten about Sonic Chronicles, however we’ll let him off — it was developed by BioWare, in spite of everything.
Iizuka-san informed Good Vibes Gaming that he “actually like(s) role-playing video games. The RPG format is a whole lot of enjoyable,”. And with the Sonic collection being over 30 years previous, Iizuka has been questioning why Sega hasn’t “finished a Sonic RPG”. He is hopeful, at the least:
“So I might prefer to hopefully work on a Sonic RPG sooner or later earlier than I retire from Sega. However you already know, that is only a dream proper now… there are not any concrete plans at this level.”
The subject got here up as one in all Good Vibes Gaming’s subscribers submitted a query about Sega’s proficient RPG builders; Atlus, the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona developer is a subsidiary of the corporate, and RGG Studio — the group behind Like a Dragon (Yakuza) — is one other division inside Sega.
So it makes complete sense. Sega has a fairly good historical past within the style, too, with each Phantasy Star and the Shining collection being two of its basic franchises, albeit the latter via publishing.
Sonic’s pace may not appear suited to the methodical turn-based fight of a conventional RPG, however we fairly preferred Sonic Chronicles right here at Nintendo Life. That mentioned, the broader crucial reception wasn’t precisely glowing, so maybe with Sega and Sonic Group on the helm, a second shot at a Sonic RPG may be rather more well-received.
Final summer time, Did You Know Gaming spoke to a number of the individuals who labored on the DS RPG, and uncovered some never-before-seen particulars on a possible sequel.
