Sonic Superstars Early Game Reviews

Ready to get the 411 on Sonic’s latest adventure? Let's go!

Gaming Trend Sonic Superstars Review

Gaming Trend came in at the top of our list; giving Sonic Superstars an early rating of 9 out of 10!

"Sonic Superstars represents some of the best 2D platforming has to offer. It has constant surprises while still offering a ton of room for mastery. The game is a delight from start to finish and beyond." - David Flynn

IGN Sonic Superstars Review

IGN is next up on our list. The publication elected for a slightly lower - but still good - scoring of 7 out of 10.

"I started hedgehog over heels for Sonic Superstars, but the more time I put into it, the easier it was for me to see its Eggman-sized flaws. The decision to focus more on exploration was a great idea on paper and creates a unique dynamic to each level, but I wish I hadn't sacrificed speed in exchange...Sonic Superstars' new ideas end up feeling like a mix of both interesting and ill-advised, making it an amusing Sonic game but not exactly a Super one." - Jada Griffin

God is a Geek Sonic Superstars Review

God is a Geek starts off the bottom half of our list, and just below IGN's scoring. They review Sonic Superstars at a 6.5 out of 10.

"Sonic Superstars has some of that high speed Sonic platforming magic, but the tedious boss fights make it hard to fully recommend." - Lyle Carr

VG247 Sonic Superstars Review

VG247 is at the bottom of our review list. The publication gives Sonic Superstars a 3 out of 5.

"In its core mission, Sonic Superstars is successful. It recreates the foundation of 2D Sonic - some of the finest platformers ever made - well. Unfortunately, the new elements layered atop that are rather hit-or-miss. I personally don't think this is anywhere near as good as Mania. But it's good. In fact, it's good enough that I expect fan debate about which game is superior to be fairly heated - which is a sure-fire sign that Sega is on the right track." - Alex Donaldson
