News: Star Wars KOTOR and Mass Effect developer to make Nintendo DS RPG.
Sega's announcement yesterday about a Sonic Rivals sequel on PSP was to be expected, but it was a bit of a surprise this morning to hear about a Bioware Sonic the Hedgehog RPG in development for Nintendo DS. Sega and the Star Wars KOTOR/Mass Effect developer haven't picked a name for their project or given us any idea on a release date other than 2008. However, they did provide us with the following quotes:
"BioWare is one of the hottest names in RPG development in the world," said Simon Jeffery, President and COO, SEGA of America, Inc. "Everyone at SEGA has huge confidence that Sonic is in the safest of hands, and that BioWare can create the ultimate handheld RPG experience for gamers of all ages."
"We're thrilled to be working with SEGA on Sonic, one of the industry's most enduring and compelling icons," said Greg Zeschuk, president of BioWare. "As huge fans of Sonic ourselves, we're committed to delivering a truly amazing story-driven experience within the Sonic universe, focusing on capturing the character's broad appeal and placing him in a completely original adventure," added Ray Muzyka, chief executive officer of BioWare.
We'll have more on Sonic the Hedgehog Bioware RPG for Nintendo DS as soon as we know more about.
