GameCube Classic ‘Sonic Heroes’ is reportedly getting a remake

Everyone has their own favourite Sonic the Hedgehog game. For some, it's the classic 2D titles. For others, it may be Sonic Adventure, Unleashed, or even one of the more modern releases. Arguably one of the best entries in the long running series is 2003’s Sonic Heroes. Initially released for the GameCube and PS2, the 20 year old title is seemingly set to get a remake.

As reported by known insiders ‘Necro Felipe Lima’ and ‘Midori’, a Sonic heroes remake is currently in development. Said to be using Unreal Engine for the project, the game is targeting current-gen systems only – meaning PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC and the upcoming Nintendo Switch successor.

While no concrete launch window was provided, the leakers did suggest that a 2025 release is likely, assuming development goes smoothly of course.

Sonic Heroes has so much more to offer than just its iconic theme song and so hopefully this remake (the first of its kind for Sonic) manages to be both a critical and commercial success.
