Sonic Boom- Rise Of Lyric May 2026

But here’s the thing about Sonic fans: they are resilient. We survived Sonic '06 . We survived Rise of Lyric . And we got Sonic Frontiers and Superstars because of it.

When you think of Sonic the Hedgehog , you think of speed. Loop-de-loops, corkscrews, and the blur of blue. So when Sega announced Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric in 2014 for the Wii U, the promise was a new kind of speed —not just fast reflexes, but a full-blown, cinematic reboot of the franchise.

So why are we still talking about it a decade later?

For $5 in a bargain bin? It’s a night of ironic entertainment. For full price? Run faster than Sonic ever could—in the opposite direction. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric aimed to reinvent the wheel, but instead, it melted the axle. It’s a game crushed under the weight of its own ambition, rushed deadlines, and technical limitations.
