Glimpses of What’s to Come in the Sonic Universe

Before Sonic the Hedgehog 3 hits the screens, fans can look forward to a six-episode series titled ‘Knuckles.’ This series, premiering on Paramount+ on April 26th, takes place between Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic the Hedgehog 3. The series follows Knuckles (played by Elba) as he embarks on a “hilarious and action-packed journey of self-discovery,” training a protégé named Wade (Adam Pally) in the ways of the Echidna warrior.
