Rumors are swirling in the gaming world as insiders report that a Sonic Heroes Remake is in the works for the upcoming Switch Successor. Known insiders Zippo, Necro Felipe, and Midori have all hinted at this exciting development, sparking anticipation among Sonic fans.

According to Zippo, SEGA is planning a remake of a significant 3D Sonic game using Unreal Engine 5. Further validating this claim, Necro Felipe of Universo Nintendo revealed that the game in question is none other than Sonic Heroes. Sources at Universo Nintendo suggest that the remake is slated for release on all modern consoles, including the highly anticipated Switch Successor. While the exact release date remains speculative, some industry experts believe it could hit the market as early as 2025.

Adding more weight to the rumors, Midori, a reputable source with a track record of accurate leaks, supported Zippo and Felipe’s claims. Moreover, Midori dismissed the possibility of remakes for the Sonic Adventure games, emphasizing that the focus is currently on Sonic Heroes.

While some may find it surprising that SEGA has chosen to prioritize a Sonic Heroes Remake over the beloved Adventure titles, recent initiatives by the company to elevate Sonic’s supporting characters, such as Knuckles and Shadow, suggest a deliberate strategy to showcase games with a diverse cast of characters. With Knuckles set to star in his own streaming series and Shadow receiving a new storyline in Sonic X Shadow Generations, it seems logical for SEGA to highlight a game like Sonic Heroes.

As with any rumors, it’s essential to approach this news with caution. However, as the story unfolds, we will continue to provide updates on this and other Sonic-related developments as they emerge.
