Next week, gamers around the globe were supposed to be gleefully tearing open the packaging of their brand spanking new Sonic Superstars game. But some lucky ducks, it seems, couldn't wait that long. Unless time travel is a thing and nobody told us, these eager beavers somehow managed to get their mitts on physical copies of the game, and boy are they flaunting it!
If suspense is your thing, brace yourself for spoilers exploiting the interweb faster than Sonic can run. Sonic Superstars' escapees have been generous enough to give us a sneak peek of the inside cover and the beautifully designed cartridge. A suggestive tweet by @One2Switcheroo hinted that a visit to your local mom-and-pop gaming store could tip the odds in your favour. Who needs a four-leaf clover when you have a local gaming store, right?
As the hinted release date of Sonic Superstars is 17th October, it gave squeaky-clean gamers a case of the chills, worrying about potential spoilers sneaking into their social media feeds or YouTube suggestions. To keep gamers' hype train running, the folks over at Famitsu fed us a tidbit about the upcoming bombshell, the 2D Sonic series spin-off having scored a commendable 32/40.
But let's not forget the real question here: who needs lottery luck when you could potentially get an early copy of Sonic Superstars? Any sharing-is-caring gamers out there willing to spill the beans about snagging Sonic Superstars before the rest of us mortals? Feel free to do so in the comments section. Your secret is safe, no pinky promise needed!
Of course, let’s not overlook the inevitable smattering of cynics. Twitter user Maulbert offered a hearty serving of scepticism, quipping that paying full price for a Sonic game may not be perceived as luck by all. But hey, one (wo)man's trash can be another (wo)man's treasure, right? Meanwhile, die-hard Sonic fan Vexx234 swore by their hefty investment in the collector’s edition of the last title, Sonic Mania. No regrets, they chanted defiantly.
Whether you're a forever-fan, an eager beaver who got the early bird loot, or a fence-sitter waiting for some price drop magic, Sonic Superstars promises a Star-studded roller-coaster for all gamers. And remember folks, in the gaming world, the early bird may catch the worm, or, in this case, the hedgehog. Until the next gaming coup, gamers, keep your joysticks at the ready!
