Along with this, SEGA also announced that a demo will be playable at this year’s E3, which will preview a special “launch” edition of the game.

This version will contain 3 episodes of the popular Sonic Boom series, 2 of which co-star Metal Sonic and Shadow the Hedgehog.

Before Fire and Ice, Sega released Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and Shattered Crystals in 2014 – both of which where panned by fans and critics a like, even receiving lower Metacritic scores to the notorious Sonic the Hedgehog for Xbox 360 (AKA Sonic 06), though its TV series was more well received, even getting renewed for a second season.
