Sonic CD Confirmed For XBLA, PSN, And PC News

Consistent with the Major Nelson leak a couple of days ago, SEGA has now confirmed that Sonic CD will be released across XBLA, PSN, PC, and mobile platforms this winter.

The classic Mega-CD Sonic instalment, which was released all the way back in 1993, introduced both Amy and Metal Sonic to the series. It's fondly remembered for a nifty time travelling dynamic and the 3D perspective in its special stages.

With Sonic 1, 2, and 3 already available on XBLA, Sonic CD's arrival on the platform will effectively complete the classic Sonic saga for Xbox 360 owners, which leads directly on to last year's release of Sonic 4: Episode 1. However, Sonic 3 remains confusingly absent from the PlayStation Store.

“Ask any Sonic fan to name their favourite games, and Sonic CD always ranks near the top of their lists,” said Haruki Satomi, Vice President of Digital Business at SEGA. “Sonic CD marks an important chapter in Sonic’s history, bridging the gap between his oldest adventures and his new digital exploits like Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Episode I. We’ve made sure the re- mastered edition has everything that Sonic fans want to see with all of the original colourful classic zones.”
