Sonic Boom's Animated TV Accompaniment Has An Air Date

by Kyle Hilliard on Oct 05, 2014 at 05:38 AM

Sonic is re-entering the world of television animation in November, and for the first time he will be in CG.

The show begins airing on November 8 on Cartoon Network, three days for the Sonic Boom video games are planned for release on Wii U and 3DS. You can check out a trailer for the show below, which shows the Sonic crew chumming it up with Dr. Robotnik quite a bit.

For more on the Sonic Boom video game, check out some of our feedback here. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric for Wii U and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal for 3DS releases November 11.

 

Our Take
Sonic fans have always taken the character very seriously. I think the fans who are most excited about the show would want to see continuous, more serious adventures, as opposed to what basically looks like a sitcom here. I guess we won't know how it is received until it starts airing in November.
