It’s not often that we get a look at how Sonic games are made, so it’s surprising that SEGA released a behind the scenes video for Sonic Boom. While there’s not much new info, it does show a lot of new concept art for the game and a couple of voice recording sessions for the TV show. There’s also one very small bit of new gameplay that you will probably miss if you blink.
The cast for the game and TV show was also revealed, which confirms that Orbot and Cubot will be present in this spin-off. It also shows that Tails now has a new voice actress, with Colleen Villard replacing Kate Higgins. This isn’t the first time Villard voiced a Sonic character, as she is also the current voice of the beloved Charmy the Bee.
Today has been a big day for Sonic Boom, as we just uploaded our latest podcast which features an hour long interview with producer Stephen Frost.

You know what, this video sold me. Color me excited.
Just a side note, Colleen also voiced Alicia in Valkyria Chronicles.
This game looks awesome.
I LOVE this preview! And so does alternate dimension Shigs.
Amazing video
I remain cautiously optimistic about the game, but regardless if the producer of the show thinks they aren’t talking down to the audience it doesn’t make the dialogue/banter any less cringe worthy.
