Sonic the Hedgehog 3 logo reveal teases a fan-favourite song
Shadow the Hedgehog will feature prominently in the film
Paramount has released the logo treatment for Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and has teased a fan-favorite song.
The logo, which is a play on the logo for Sonic Adventure 2, is accented blue on one side to represent Sonic, and black and red on the other, presumable to represent Shadow, who was teased in the second film.
The clip ends with a few seconds of an orchestral version of Live & Learn, the main theme from Sonic Adventure 2.
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 will be released in cinemas in December 2024.
According to Variety, Jim Carrey will reprise his role as Dr. Robotnik.
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is the second highest-grossing video game movie of all time in the US. It reached the top spot prior to being overtaken by the Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Commenting on the success of the movies in a VGC interview, Sonic Team’s boss said it presented a welcome challenge for the studio because it now has a broader audience to satisfy with its game releases.
“Because of the success of the movies, we’re finding that we’re reaching into this wider audience of people who maybe never played the game before, or don’t play them that much,” Takashi Iizuka said. “It’s this wider group of fans who we need to start now making content for.
“Honestly, it makes us all very happy, because we have more people now that we can bring content to. It is a challenge though, because we have maybe new gamers or people who haven’t played previous Sonic games, so we don’t think we can go out there with on single game that will make the entire audience excited.”
