System(s): Sega Mega Drive/Genesis |

Developer: Sonic Team |
Genre: 2D Platform |
Sonic the Hedgehog 3C Prototype 0408 for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis was released by drx during the February 23rd, 2008 proto release. A later in development beta with a compilation number of 0517 was also found. When this beta was obtained by drx the file was labeled 3C indicating this was a unreleased version of Sonic 3. Due to the late development date (dating after Sonic 3's release) it's obvious this isn't Sonic 3 before it was split into 2 games.
This likely is a beta for the cancelled Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles compilation called Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Limited Edition.
