The first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 2 just premiered at The Game Awards 2020, and it seems the speedy blue mammal hasn’t slowed down. However, some new characters might give him a run for his money.
Set after the events of 2020’s Sonic the Hedgehog, the sequel’s trailer shows Sonic (voiced by Ben Schwartz) causing restless havoc until Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) and his upgraded moustache return in search of a powerful, potentially destructive emerald. However he isn’t alone, bringing with him Knuckles the Echidna (voiced by Idris Elba).
Fortunately Sonic has allies as well, the trailer also seeing the return of James Marsden as Sonic’s beleaguered friend Sheriff Wachowski, and the introduction of two-tailed fox Tails (voiced by Colleen O’Shaughnessey, reprising her role from the games).
Sonic the Hedgehog will cross the finish line on Apr. 8.
