The game will have gameplay similar to the Sonic Rush series, while occasionally changing to a more Sonic Adventure experience in levels. It has been confirmed for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii, and Playstation 2.

He then lures Super Sonic into a chamber which rips the Chaos Emeralds from him and harnesses their power to unleash a beast from the center of the planet which breakes it apart. But there were two unintended side effects the chaos emeralds are changed somehow and Sonic turns into a Werehog. Sonic then falls torward the broken planet. Sonic must put Earth (now in chaos) back together.
