Sega has rather excitedly announced that it’s upcoming Sonic 4 title would be delayed. Sega claims this delay is to make sure that the game “is a game worthy of bearing the weight of its name,” which should be easy enough considering the direction the series has taken over the past few years. To do so, the development team has been taking to heart internal suggestions, as well as fan suggestions. Most of these suggestions are assumed to generally be fans begging for them to do a decent job for once.
Sega also mentioned that Sonic 4 would be released on the Apple iPhone and iPad, then concluded this announcement by saying “there are rumors that something very special relating to Sonic 4 is coming around a special date this June.” This is most likely happening on June 23rd to coincide with the anniversary of the first Sonic the Hedgehog game. Sega however was unable to confirm if the rumor that they started is even true.
