Sonic Blur (series)

Sonic Blur is the 2015 reboot series of Sega's mascot franchise Sonic the Hedgehog. The series began in 2015 with the first installment of the series Sonic Blur: Episode α being released through digital services to the Wii U, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PCs. The series was made to create a more "consistent" series of Sonic games, with consistent plot and gameplay throughout each installment. Notably, the series has no involvement from the original series creator, Yuji Naka nor from the head of Sonic Team, Takashi Iizuka and instead is being helmed by Simple Studio's Thomas Crunch
Sonic Blur takes inspiration from the Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog in terms of storyline, even utilizing same characters from the Archie comics, although the plotline of the stories is different. The gameplay brings the series backs to its 2D roots while also including features from the 3D installments as well.
As of now, the series has received critical and fanbase acclaim. The first installment of the series was met with positive reviews from fans and critics alike, although both noted the lack of new ideas in the gameplay or the story department, which was the intention of the team while working on Episode α to create a simple Sonic game while future games would further expand on the formula set by α.
