Sonic CD.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>You’ll receive all the content from the
Sonic Origins base game, including remastered versions of
Sonic the Hedgehog 1,
Sonic the Hedgehog 2,
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles and
Sonic CD (as well as all previously released DLC). In addition, the collection still includes Classic Mode, where you can enjoy the games in their original and unaltered format, and Anniversary Mode, which stretches the aspect ratio to 16:9 and lowers frustration by giving you infinite lives. Finally, a 20-page book of classic art and a reversible coversheet are bundled if you buy a physical copy.</p><p>If you own
Sonic Origins, the expansion will cost an extra $10. However, if you’re new to the collection, you get
Sonic Origins Plus — including all the base game’s content — for $40, the same price you’ll pay now for
Sonic Origins alone. The expansion will be available for PlayStation (PS5 / PS4), Xbox (Series X / S and One) and Nintendo Switch on June 23rd, which marks the 32nd anniversary of the first Sonic game’s launch on the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive.</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at
