Roger Craig Smith Reveals Sonic Departure Was His Decision, "It's Time To Be Done"

In an interview with Voices from Krypton, the voice actor – whose other roles have ranged from Batman to Assassin’s Creed’s Ezio Auditore to Bugsnax’s Snorpy Fizzlebean – said that he felt he had naturally given as much as he could to SEGA’s blue-blur mascot. The timing simply felt right for him to step away and explore new roles, he suggested."

Unhappy with $$$, probably. Won't judge.

It always comes down to money. Sonic games are not the only medium hes in anymore and I would bet Roger not being given a shot at voicing the movie was a factor. Got to wonder what Sonic Team is working on these days....the last legit Sonic game was Forces and it certainly wasn't a bit hit.

Just watched the Sonic movie and have to say, it was not awful. My daughter loved it.
