EU release played on a PlayStation 4 Pro.

This is the perfect follow up to the Mega Drive/Genesis games. Not only does it capture those games' sense of gameplay and creativity, it also greatly expands on those features with the new drop dash move and a great number of level-specific gimmicks and features. It truly feels like a Sega Saturn title with the expanded colour pallete and performance boost in what's capable within a 2D Sonic game. It also managed to land at the perfect time in terms of the "meta era" of Sonic where we weren't completely burnt out on the self-referential humour just yet.
