Sega announces Sonic Dash, an endless runner starring Sonic the Hedgehog

Out soon on the App Store.

Sega has announced Sonic Dash, an endless runner starring Sonic the Hedgehog.

A short Sega blog post confirmed the game will be released soon on the App Store for iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad. No mention was made of an Android version.

"Our hero will be doing what he does best - making a fast and frenzied 3D dash through stunning stages, as he navigates over, around, and through interminable dangers," reads the official blurb.

"Challenge your friends and compete on leaderboards - you may know who the fastest is, but, for how long?"

Sonic Dash is made by Sega's Hardlight Studios, which created Sonic Jump. Hardlight is Sega's third UK-based studio, alongside Sports Interactive and Creative Assembly, and focuses on mobile games.
