Premise[]

Following the events of Sonic World Run, Sonic, followed by his uncle Chuck, travels across alternate realities of Time and Space in the Multiverse to solve secrets about his past and reunite with his long lost cousin Sapphire and siblings Sonia and Manic. His adventure will soon lead him to an encounter with superhuman hedgehogs from other dimensions, with some joining his journey. But not all of them are as heroic as Sonic himself is as he will soon discover. Sonic must also be prepared when he once again comes across Scourge the Hedgehog, who will try everything to get his revenge over his previous defeat.
