Toy World Magazine: A “Solid Roadmap Of Sonic Games For Next Few Years”
As we prepare for 2017’s big releases, SEGA is already planning for the future. And Toy World offered a hint to this in their magazine, saying that there’s a “solid roadmap of games for the next few years” and that “this is just the beginning”.
It will be a long while before we know exactly what that means, but it’s still interesting nevertheless.

Adventure 3!!!
…Is what I can already hear. From… let’s call them optomists.
Now you’re calling us SA3 supporters some kind of octopuses? This means war!
jk
2018 is bound to have a tie-in game with the Movie….
2019 could, but not guaranteed, be Sonic Adventure 3!
2020 is anyones guess, but we all know that 2021 is Sonic’s 30th anniversary!
Hope the movie is great, if it is it could have a tie-in animated series, Tim Miller’s involment still give me high hopes.
SA3 seems more likely now than it was 5 years ago, even the trailer of Project 2017 have an Adventurish vibe to its story, also with recent comments from Iizuka it may actually happen someday.
For the 30th anniversary I would welcome anything but another Sonic Generations, the idea was good for one occasion, I rather have them focus on Modern Sonic and Sonic Mania games independently.
Haha Iizuka made the exact same comments over 5 years ago.
Which means it’s still true.
“Solid Roadmap of Sonic games”
The first thing that comes to my mind is that Sonic Team developed a new gameplay style that will be used in several future Sonic games (like the Adventure style or the boost style), then again this is a toy magazine and it makes me think they’re talking about content and not gameplay mechanics.
It means exactly what it means here let me put use it in a more obvious context:
“Solid Roadmap of Marvel Movies”
Also keep in mind that that it’s probably including mobile titles. Sega has probably some thought into making a actual roadmap for games coming out in response to the random mess of trash that was everything after Generations, that was less roadmap and more someone scribbling crayons on the walls of their padded cell.
Yeah, you’re probably right in that one, guess I read too much into it.
“Everything after Generations”
….Sonic Lost World? Or do you mean to include Mobile and Boom?
Okay then. Lost World, Rise of Lyric, Shattered Crystal and Runners. I guess you could include Lego and Fire And Ice. But those just came out and seem to be doing well.
Idk man. After Gens there’s not much.
Honestly, I wouldn’t mind another Gens as long as they changed up the approach and had more content to work with. Lol
I hope they make sonic adventure 3 one day.
The “solid road map” is probably Mania, P17, and possibly even a tie-in game for the movie. I’d be willing to bet that P17 ends up functioning a s a pseudo prequel to the movie and the tie-in game.
I wouldn’t call that game being a marketing tie in to a movie and destined to be awful movie game “solid” in any sense. If the game ends up being a another Sonic Team flunker that very obviously was meant to push a movie then their roadmap would be one leading to a volcano.
I think that’s really hard to say right now, we don’t know yet if the Sonic movie will fit the games’ continuity or if its going to be its own continuity but I think is possible.
Also many people suggested as well that Mania’s ending could tie-in with Project 2017 as it features Classic Sonic again, maybe everything is connected! (*cue x-files music).
