Sonic Heroes could be making a comeback for the next Nintendo Switch in the form of a remake.
According to a new report from Universo Nintendo, a remake of the 2003 platformer is in development for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 — or whatever Nintendo ends up calling it. It’s also claimed that the game is being developed in Unreal Engine.
Corroborating the original report is notable Sega leaker Midori, saying the information is “correct”.
In addition to the next Nintendo console, the report also claims that the remake would also release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
Sonic Heroes originally released in 2003, and put players in control of a team of characters as opposed to one singular character. There are four teams in total with each character having a specific ability whether it be speed, power, or flight.
The game was also the first multi-platform Sonic game, releasing for PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, Xbox, and PC.
On Metacritic, the game has seen “mixed or average” reviews over the years.
