Sonic Rumble is coming out November 5
Sonic Rumble has a new worldwide launch date: November 5. The game, which we've previously likened to Fall Guys, was supposed to come out last winter before its release was rescheduled for May 8 this year. By the end of April, however, Sega announced that its global launch had been postponed yet again because its developers needed more time to "build the kind of high-quality, long-lasting Sonic game [their] players deserve." At the time, the company said it had blasted past its goal of 1.4 million pre-registrations and that it had received "amazing positive response" from players in pre-launch regions. Players who pre-register will receive bonuses when the game launches globally.
Similar to Fall Guys, Sonic Rumble is a battle royale-style game that can accommodate up to 32 players at once. Players will race against each other in worlds inspired by the Sonic franchise while collecting Rings they can use to buy new skins and stickers. It has several different modes, including Run wherein players compete for the top spot and Survival wherein they compete to stay in the game. Players can choose between various Sonic characters, including Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow and Dr. Eggman, and form a team of four to race against other teams around the world.
Sega developed Sonic Rumble for mobile devices and PC, and it will be available to play on iOS and Android, as well as on Google Play Games on PC and Steam.
