The video game icons will join forces for a 12-part storyline spanning three titles after Sega and Capcom both agreed to lend their characters to the project.
Sonic and Mega Man scribe Ian Flynn will pen the story, which will play out across issues of Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man and Sonic Universe.
He told USA Today: "I'm already living the dream by writing the Sonic titles. Then I got to live the other dream of writing for Mega Man. With that many dreams being handed to me, I figured it was only a matter of time.
"They're both fun, adventurous and open to everyone. They both have heavy sci-fi themes, mainly robotics, underpinning them that give us something to build from and play off each other. That, and they both have mad-scientist nemeses with fabulous moustaches!"
Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the most inconsistent, wildly variable series ever, yet it's managed to grab so many people who connect with the idea of a blue little rodent running fast.
Surge the Tenrec, the original IDW character from the Sonic the Hedgehog comics, is making her video game debut in two Sonic mobile games.
Sonic Dream Team, the new 3D action-adventure Sonic the Hedgehog game, exclusively makes its way to Apple Arcade.
Well darn. I've been wanting a sonic adventure and Sega just makes it exclusive to Apple. A hole move sega.
It does kind of look like that, but I'd wait for more video first for confirmation.
Apple obviously paid for exclusivity. Imagine playing a game like this on a touchscreen tho.. No thanks.
They haven't confirmed support to controllers yet. But a lot of Apple Arcade can be played with one and the cheapest/best entry point is the $140 Apple TV 4K.
Don't think it's worth it just for playing Sonic, but if you are also in business for a TV Box. It is a very solid option and rather on the cheap side, weirdly enough.
Sega d move guys make it console and pc too we'll play fr. You can make $20 or f2p and I'll join in.
Well, if that's the case I won't b playing it. Good luck to you on this one, Sega.
