A lot of Sonic the Hedgehog news has zoomed our way recently. Following the Netflix series news, we now know more about the sequel to the 2020 live action film.

Ok, it’s not a lot more.

Paramount has revealed the title for the Sonic the Hedgehog sequel will be… Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

Sigh.

Along with this groundbreaking, thought-provoking, extremely obvious announcement (Paramount’s words), we did get some new title art. Check it out below.

Or watch the new title speed by in video format.

The video promo gives us slightly more information – that Sonic 2 will premiere April 8, 2022.

So Sonic fans will have to wait a bit longer to see the speedy hedgehog’s adventures continue. It’s also worth mentioning Netflix’s 3-D animated Sonic Prime series is slated for a 2022 debut as well. (A more specific date remains TBA.) 

Which Sonic will grace our screens first? We’ll just have to wait and see. If you’re a fan, drop us a comment to let us know if you’re more excited for the sequel film or the animated series.

Meanwhile, check back to THS for more updates on Sonic and any other general pop culture.
