Tee Lopes reveals track from cancelled Sonic Mania 2

Cool to see but I never was pining for a Mania 2. I actually don't love Genesis 2D Sonic gameplay. I think it's missing something or there is something I don't understand about it. I don't think it's the end-all-be-all for Sonic games. I like the gameplay in the Sonic Adventures more. I do love the music and art style of the Genesis Sonic games though.

Releasing Sonic Mania 2 would be one of the easiest and fastest ways for SEGA to make a huge profit, but more importantly, it would bridge Sonic's glorious past with his vibrant present. It would honor the legacy of the Blue Blur while respecting SEGA's vision of keeping Sonic relevant in the modern era.This is why it's up to us, the fans, to be vocal and united. Sonic Mania 2 must happen.

And SEGA listens. They changed Sonic in the movie, and they've ported several games to PC over the last year. They've even started remaking some of their classics.

Sonic Adventure over Mania this man has lost the plot completely
 
Can someone explain to me, and possibly give at least one good reason, on why SEGA cancelled this game? The first one was the best Sonic game in ages and I also think it sold really well.
 
Nice music

Loved Mania, but I think a second game won't have the same impact. We needed something like this and we got it - and I love with all my heart the special edition

However Adventure 3?! That's another thing we need - and oh, with vibrant Dreamcast style colors
 
I am sega, i can spend few money on making an outaource Sonic game that Will sell like bitches in Vietnam.

Nah, better making my own ugly and shitty 3d games
 
So, Sonic Team got indeed envy of Taxman and shutdown the project.

All those information about the real reason for the cancelation are probably true after all.
 
Such a shame it got cancelled there was no reason Sega couldn't release a 2D and 3D game. The music is amazing, Tee Lopes always nails it as usual and hopefully he can release it.

Cancel Mania 2 and rush Origins. Create new bugs and issues. Shitty music to replace the MJ tracks.

And remove all other versions of the old Sonic games from the stores to fuck everyone. SEGA are absolute geniuses.
 
It is now the 8th anniversary of Mania

Then, Sega and Sonic Team developed Superstars with Arzest and charged full price for a 2-3 hour game, sales were absolute shite, and now they look like even bigger chodes as a result.

Total buffoonery, honestly. Cancelling Mania 2 just continues to baffle me to this day, and I'm a grumpy fuck about it. Clearly.
 
Mania wasn't the best game in the world, but I enjoyed it and would have bought a sequel. I particularly enjoyed the gameplay additions from the DLC.
 
Said it a dozen times before, but Sega should make a Sonic fan game publishing brand and sell fan creations that fulfill certain criteria. No sex or violence, no Sonic.exe, mobius, Pender's creations or Sally Acorn, stuff like that. Maybe even fund promising projects and help out with console ports for successful games.

Do a variation on the Games Workshop licensing success, they already built a big fan game culture around the IP by doing literally nothing.

Make room in the corner of shame, I did try it for a bit (20m) back in 2018 and I recently grabbed the Encore DLC.

Mania was very polished, but it didn't sell super well. Heck, I think Forces sold better which was very mediocre.

I didn't care for Mania much due to being rehashes of old levels. I liked the original levels much more

I agree that they are good rehashes(even better than the originals), it just makes me yawn. I'd love to see their take on all original content. That would excite me.
 
Even the rehashed zones have better level design than the shite they're shitting out in something like Forces or Frontiers. God awful level design, if you can even call it that.

Never played Origins since the week I bought it I just use roms instead. But at least they had a big important game that looks like UE demo assets keeping them busy.
