Sonic Boom Season 2 Currently In Production, Might Get A DVD / Blu-ray Release

Last year SEGA launched an ambitious new project related to one of its more popular characters, Sonic the Hedgehog, called Sonic Boom. The Sonic Boom project is a reboot of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, featuring new designs for all characters and a brand new setting. The project included a pair of video games released for Nintendo Wii U and 3DS as well as a TV Show produced by SEGA in collaboration with OuiDo! Productions and more. While the video games have failed to become as popular as SEGA expected, the TV Show has managed to become way more popular. All those who have enjoyed it will be happy to know that a second Sonic Boom season is currently in production.
The news has been confirmed during the Marché Internationale de Programmes Communications which has been held in Cannes, France by LER, the company which distributed the first Sonic Boom season. The company has confirmed that the Sonic Boom season two is currently in production by
OuiDo! Productions and SEGA. We have no idea on when it will air but it’s already been confirmed that broadcasting rights have been purchased by Discovery Kids and MEGAMAX / Minimax, for Italy and Eastern Europe, with talks currently underway for other territories. Also, talks are currently underway for a possible DVD / Blu-ray release.
As mentioned above, the Sonic Boom series also received two video games, released last year on Nintendo Wii U and 3DS. The Wii U title, called Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric, has been met with a very negative reception from critics due to the many glitches included in the game as well as for its bad camera system, controls and combat. The Wii U and 3DS games also failed to perform well on the market, with their combined sales making them the worst selling Sonic the Hedgehog games ever released.
Despite the games’ bad commercial results, another Sonic Boom title will be released in the future on Nintendo 3DS. Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice will be released sometime next year and it will play not too differently from the previous 3DS Sonic Boom game Shattered Crystal. The addition of the fire and ice elements will also spice up the experience considerably, with players having to use the elements to solve some simple puzzles and defeat enemies.

Ubisoft says that future Assassin’s Creed games will need more time to be made

As Assassin’s Creed Shadows is about to sneak up on people in November, Ubisoft says that the time between developing games needs to be longer to find the “right balance.” Shadows has been in development for four years, longer than any other game in the series up to this point. That includes the huge open-world epics Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Shadows lead producer Karl Onnée (thanks, GamesIndustry.biz) says that the latest AC game took 25% longer to make than Valhalla. He says this is necessary to keep the quality of the series that it is known for: “It’s always a balance between time and costs, but the more time you have, the more you can iterate.” You can speed up a project by adding more people to it, but that doesn’t give you more time to make changes.
Onnée says this has as much to do with immersion and aesthetics as it does with fixing bugs and smoothing out pixels. This is because the development team needs time to learn about each new historical setting: “We are trying to make a game that is as real as possible.” We’re proud of it, and the process took a long time. In feudal Japan, building a house is very different from building a house in France or England in the Middle Ages. As an artist, you need to learn where to put things in a feudal Japanese home. For example, food might not belong there. Get all the information you need and learn it. That process takes a long time.”
You’ll have to wait a little longer for Ubisoft to work on each game. Are you okay with that? In what part of Shadows are you now? Is it interesting to you? Leave a comment below and let us know.

You can now pre-order Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP on PS5

You can now pre-order Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, a remaster that Dragami Games and Capcom both created. You can now pre-order the PS5 game on the PS Store for $44.99 or £39.99. If you have PS Plus, you can get an extra 10% off the price.
The company put out a new trailer with about three minutes of gameplay to mark the start of the pre-order period. Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP is a remaster of Grasshopper Manufacture’s crazy action game from 2012. You play as Juliet, a high school student who fights off waves of zombies.
The remaster adds RePOP mode, an alternative mode that swaps out the blood and gore for fun visual effects. It also adds a bunch of other features and improvements that make the game better overall. You can expect the graphics and sound to be better as well.
The game will now come out on September 12, 2024, instead of September 12, 2024. Are you excited to get back to this? Please cheer us on in the section below.

This Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 zombies trailer is way too expensive

Is there really anyone who is following the story of Call of Duty’s zombie mode? We’ve known about the story in a vague way for a while, but we couldn’t tell you anything about it. It looks like the “Dark Aether” story will continue in Black Ops 6, but we don’t really know what that means.
For those of you who care, here is the official blurb with some background: “Requiem, led by the CIA, finally closed the last-dimensional portal, sending its inhabitants back to the nightmare world known as the Dark Aether, after two years of fighting zombie outbreaks around the world during the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War timeline.”
Wait, there’s more! “Agent Samantha Maxis gave her life to seal this weird dimension from the inside out.” Even worse things were to come: senior staff members of Requiem were arrested without a reason by the Project Director, who turned out to be Edward Richtofen.
Black Ops 6 will take place about five years later, and it looks like it will show more about Richtofen’s goals and motivations. The most important thing is that you will probably be shooting an unimaginable number of zombies in the head. This week, on August 8, there will be a full reveal of the gameplay, so keep an eye out for that.
