Sonic The Hedgehog 2 - What We Know So Far

During the 2021 Game Awards, "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" voice actor Ben Schwartz introduced the first trailer for the film, with a second teaser arriving in time for the 2022 Super Bowl. Both clips revealed a few details about the plot of the highly anticipated sequel. After Sonic blasted away Dr. Robotnik to a mushroom planet in the first film, he was determined to escape his prison and return to Earth. A post-credits scene shows a ring portal open up near Green Hills, and Tails zips through. Both characters continue their exploits in "Sonic the Hedgehog 2."

As revealed in the third trailer, which hit the internet on March 14, 2022, Dr. Robotnik returns to wreak more havoc, and he's in possession of a giant green emerald, which he proclaims to be "the source of ultimate power." Sonic, after crashing through a ring portal on a pile of snow, rudely interrupting Rachel's Hawaiian destination wedding, announces his intention to stop his persistent nemesis — or otherwise "the world is doomed." Neither side is alone in their quest this time. Dr. Robotik has brought along the destructive and nefarious echidna Knuckles, while Sonic has Tails fighting in his corner.
