See why Sonic Mania was declared as the "Best Sonic game ever!" by Game spot, and a blazing example of why Sonic the Hedgehog continues to break barriers over the course of 25+ years as one of gaming's most iconic characters of all time! Game, manual, art book Review: Nostalgia blast - Hands down the best game I've played this year. I was never into 2d sonic, I had a Dreamcast and played sonic adventure 1 and 2 literally every day and completed both games. I first played sonic mania at a friend's house and wasn't fully convinced, but upon seeing a physical release promising 4 player co-op - then they got my attention. If you don't know it yet, this game was created by sonic hackers who are sonic fans who were embraced by Sega! Besides coming with a little art booklet (the only game I own in the switch with one) the game is fantastic - and made even better by the low price! The music is good, the animations great, no bugs, the game saves your progress every time you finish act 2 and allows you to replay any level once you beat the final boss - to try to catch those emeralds. All characters can turn into super too! The two new characters are fantastic - I recommend playing with Mighty the Armadillo if it's your first time - as he usually avoids dying on spikes, as for Ray the Squirrel, left and right makes him fly (took me a while to figure that out) I've got over 50h so far and finished the game a good 6-7 times and I'm still itching for more. I have yet to finish encore mode - the special stages are HARD! If you like Sonic or if you want to tell the games industry we need more fan-lead games then - buy this game. I didn't have nostalgia for the blue blur but this game made me want to play the classics, I've installed the mobile games and an emulator to play 1, 2 and 3 and knuckles and I still can't get enough of it. Review: A Love Letter to the Series - Sonic Mania caused massive buzz when originally announced and was a bold move by SEGA. There's no pretending that the Sonic series has had it's issues. Sonic Team occasionally hit on good ideas, but their own Sonic titles can be pretty hit-or-miss with audiences. A previous effort to go back to the series roots, Sonic 4 Episode I - had been marred with physics issues and "modern style" gameplay elements that made the game less enjoyable. There's always been an active fangame scene for the series, with lots of hacked versions of the classic games out there where people have designed new zones and even successfully introduced new mechanics. Most of the staff on Sonic Mania come from this fan community and are accomplished creatives and programmers. They are passionate about the series and this really shows in everything Mania has to offer, from loving recreations of classic Zones with slight twists (like the massive syringes that turn Chemical Plant Zone's Toxic Mega Mack into Mega Jell-O) to fun obscure references to the series past and Sega in general (which Studiopolis is packed to the gills with) . Visually it's a delight, with fresh new art for each location and overall improvements, the original core characters of Sonic, Tails and Knuckles all have fresh new sprite sets with some lovely expressive animation (not that much of it is needed - it's mostly confined to cliff-edge wobbles and wait animations) along with the new Ray and Mighty from SegaSonic Arcade - an additional treat for long time fans. It not only plays well, but feels like a classic Sonic game too. Characters run at high speed and while gravity can act on these characters as they hit hills and slopes, it never feels like it completely kills the momentum of the gameplay. Pitfalls exist - but most of them are to prevent the player just "holding right" to finish the level or give them something to remember to avoid next playthrough - it rarely feels cheap or unfair. The Physical release is a massive treat, coming in a lovely foiled slipcover - an art book with lots of concept sketches and level design concepts, including concept art for the game's lovely animated opening. This also comes complete with the "Mania Plus" DLC that adds Encore Mode - a harder and adjusted playthrough of Mania that adds Mighty and Ray to the playable roster as well as an improved vs mode. ## Features - A true, classic Sonic experience: Gorgeous pixel graphics featuring a variety of new Zones with iconic favorites from Sonic 1, 2, 3, Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic The Hedgehog CD. - Definitive version: Pixel-perfect HD visuals, 60 FPS gameplay and all new content in one package! Join Sonic and his friends as they face off against Dr Eggman and his new robo-henchmen the Hard Boiled Heavies! - New playable characters join the fun with Sonic: Seen in past Sonic titles, Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel join the Mania each with their own unique abilities!All-new Encore mode: A new mode that adds a fresh look to familiar locations while challenging new and veteran players alike. - New and improved features including Competition mode. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07BTPMF4S | | Best Sellers Rank | #65,978 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #1,860 in Xbox One Games | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Microsoft Xbox One, Microsoft Xbox One S, Microsoft Xbox One X | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (552) | | Date First Available | June 4, 2018 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05055277031788 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 3.53 ounces | | Item model number | 5055277031788 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | SEGA | | Product Dimensions | 7.48 x 5.31 x 1.18 inches; 3.53 ounces | | Release date | July 17, 2018 | | Type of item | Video Game | ## Images ![Sonic Mania Plus (Xbox One) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QXZhV4P3L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nostalgia blast *by J***S on 3 November 2020* Hands down the best game I've played this year.

Whilst there are quite a few sonic games on the market, including the recently released Superstars, many of them have struggled to capture the feel of the original 16bit sonic games. This one definitely nails that. Think of it as a kind of greatest hits game, it essentially takes all the best bits of the older games, along with all new levels, characters and other content, bundling it into one ultimate package. It’s been referred to as β€œa love letter to sonic fans” and I can’t disagree with that! The presentation is in the classic 16bit art style, but of course the game moves smoothly on modern hardware. It really does capture the feel of the retro sonic games perfectly and as such, can be considered as a great starting point to those who are young enough to have missed that era. I’d definitely recommend this game for anyone, whether they are new to sonic or veterans of the original games. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sonic Mania Plus (Xbox One) - Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Xbox One) - Crash Bandicoot NSane Trilogy (Xbox One) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/65475384-sonic-mania-plus-xbox-one](https://www.desertcart.us/products/65475384-sonic-mania-plus-xbox-one) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
