"Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood" is an RPG being developed by famed Canadian RPG developer BioWare (Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights) for the Nintendo DS. It is scheduled for a 2008 release in North America and Europe. No Japanese release date has yet been specified.

Story

Sonic's on vacation from defeating Eggman 2 years ago. He gets a call from Tails that Knuckles has been kidnapped by a group called the Marauders, and that 6 of the 7 chaos emeralds are missing.

Eggman will not be the main villain, but will be a creditable bad guy. Something about a "twist" between Eggman and Sonic that goes back to the earlier games.

Playable Characters

The player can have up to four players in a party at one time. Only certain characters can do certain things. (ex: Tails can fly over things) You will be able to split the party into teams at some points.

Misc. Info

Recent information has been revealed about the game in a Nintendo Power article. The information goes as follows:

  • In the game, graphics will have a water color look, all hand drawn.
  • Control done fully with stylus.
  • Rings are used as currency.
  • No random battles, you see enemies on the field before they attack you.
  • Turn based battles, choose commands for everyone in your party before they actually follow through. Bioware hopes to have the battles fast paced.
  • Team attacks.
  • "Fatigue Points" instead of MP.
  • Choose which attributes to increase when you level up.
  • Purchase level special attacks.
  • 2 acts - The first takes place in the normal Sonic World. The 2nd takes place in a "darker world".
  • Remixed classic tunes.
  • "fully animated cut scenes"
  • Simple dialogue trees.
  • Side quests.
  • Classic levels revisited (ex: Green Hill Zone and Mystic Ruins)
