Race through an amusement park high above the world of Sonic, and harness the power of the Wisps... Sega has just announced Sonic Colours for Wii and DS!

While the world waits for Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Chapter 1, Sega are preparing another Sonic adventure for your screens... Lying in orbit high above the home planet of Sonic lies an extraordinary amusement park - where a colourful race of aliens named Wisps are being held captive by the evil Dr Eggman.

The game will combine both 3D and classic 2D game play perspectives on the Wii, and fully 2D on the DS. While racing through levels, Sonic can use Wisp energy to create new paths through the stages by drilling through the ground (Yellow Drill), or speeding through the stage as a laser (Cyan Laser). Stringing the Wisp power ups together creates a combo that increases Sonic's boost gauge even more quickly, and both the DS and Wii will have exclusive power-up options.

Sonic Colours will be available on the Wii and DS in late 2010. Stay tuned for more!
