Studiopolis is a new level in Sonic Mania. It was the first level to be revealed in Sonic Mania. As such, Studiopolis is chalk-full of Sega references. First of all, Studiopolis is a reference to the name to the recording studio of Sonic Boom. Also, there is a reference to a Streets of Rage first level prop ,the Pine Pot, changed to the Pink Bot in Mania. There is also a subtle reference to Daytona USA in the form of a van with the Hornet race-car logo on it. There are odd lamps in Studiopolis Zone that are in fact a reference to scrapped UFO's that were supposed to be in the original Marble Zone and were reimplemented in the debug mode of the 2013 remake of the game. The infamous letterings "Cope" and "CPU" appear once again as graffiti on train cars, obviously a reference to Spring Yard Zone.
