As part of a whole new Sonic the Hedgehog brand (which includes a new CG animated series), we’re sure that fans are excited to see if Sega can find a way to break out of the dreaded “Sonic cycle”.

Either way, we’ll find out soon enough. Read on and check out the official packshots.

Sonic the Hedgehog, one of the most recognizable figures in video game history will be speeding his way back to fans ? both old and new ? this November!

In anticipation of the game?s release, SEGA is also pleased to reveal the new front pack shots of both Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal featuring the electrifying team – Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and newcomer Sticks ? who will band together to defeat both familiar and new powerful enemies.
