Sega of America didn’t reply to IGN’s request for touch upon the matter.

Sonic Superstars was revealed at Summer time Sport Fest earlier this month with a Fall 2023 launch window. Provided that the trailer for the sport dropped so lately, it will mark a reasonably fast turnaround to disclose its actual launch date now.

Basic hypothesis, although, locations the sport someplace between August and October. Whereas August is techincally a summer season month, Sonic Mania launched at the moment in 2017. And whereas November technically counts as a Fall month, sometimes, when Sega drops a brand new Sonic recreation trailer exhibiting a Winter or Vacation launch window equivalent to Sonic Frontiers, the sport will get a November launch date a number of months later.

If Sonic Superstars is certainly slated to launch on October 17, it will be in competitors with Alan Wake 2, which comes out the identical day. It could even be competing with Tremendous Mario Bros. Marvel and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, which come out October 20.
