The Sonic movie’s redesign is now official; take a look!

A new Sonic the Hedgehog movie trailer has officially unveiled Sonic’s redesign.

Granted, we’ve previously seen the new-and-improved Sonic in a photo of promotional material (at a distance), but the trailer below offers many, many opportunities to check out the movie’s titular hero.

Fans lost their minds back in March 2019 over the character’s initial design, causing Paramount Pictures to delay the film while it pledged to redesign Sonic himself. Whether or not the studio has achieved that is ultimately up to you.

With that in mind, what do you think of the new Sonic? Let’s throw in a comparison picture to make your task a bit easier:

Truthfully? I’m personally annoyed people made such a big deal about the original Sonic… but looking at the image above, I’m almost glad they did. In the words of Baga Chipz, “much better!”

Sonic the Hedgehog heads to theatres on 14 February 2020.
