Sonic Boom info Coming Soon, Sega Explains why its been a bit Quiet

Sonic Boom Website

Sega’s Stephen Frost has discussed why news has been a bit slow, and how we should expect some news soon.

I’ve been asked to chime in a bit here so I’ll do what I can to share some info with you all. I’ve said it a few times in the past, but there were key reasons why we announced the Sonic Boom initiative when we did.

Along with that, there are a lot of partners involved with Sonic Boom so we have to be mindful of their timelines and requirements for their respective fields. It’s not just about a game anymore… This is a large group effort so any announcements and information shared publically needs to really be planned and organized carefully. We need to make sure that things we reveal don’t impact other parts and vice versa.

I completely appreciate the fact that you fans are hungry for info specific to the games, I really do. And that’s why we all work these endless late nights and weekends… It’s to get all the pieces in place for when the campaign does really kick off. We still have a ways until the cartoon and game launch, as well as the new toy line, so we need to pace all the info appropriately.

And it all starts as we head into E3. You’ll learn more, for sure, but not everything. And the reveal of new assets and info should be more frequent from that point on. But trust me when I say there is no lack of effort by anyone involved with Sonic Boom. This is, by far, the biggest united effort I have personally ever seen Sega be involved in. We want to share everything with everyone because we are so excited… We just can’t… Yet.

So, please be a bit more patient. I’m working on screens and commenting on releases so stuff is coming. We will even have a bit of a surprise in there for you, as well as the first info and assets for the 3DS version. There is quite a bit of cool stuff ahead so hang in there.

Sega has already confirmed in previous interviews that we should hear more about the CryEngine 3 that powers Sonic Boom as well at E3 2014.

    Wonder if a Sonic NFC figure could unlock different skins/levels in a game like Smash. Would be a pretty cool take on DLC that you buy once and you can use in multiple games

    I reckon this game will launch early 2015

    Could Sonic Boom factor into Nintendo's NFC plans? Will we be able to drop Mario into the game through an NFC figure?

      Anything is possible with Nintendo (and Sega). Those old school video companies know a little something about game design.
