Sonic Forces is a platform video game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. An installment in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, the story follows Sonic as a member of a resistance force against Doctor Eggman, who has taken over the world with the help of his robot army and a mysterious villain known as Infinite. Gameplay is similar to Sonic Generations: players control "Classic" and "Modern" versions of the titular character; the former plays from a side-scrolling view reminiscent of the Sega Genesis Sonic games, while the latter uses three-dimensional gameplay similar to Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Colors. Sonic Forces also features a third gameplay mode featuring the "Avatar", the player's own custom character.
Development of Sonic Forces began after the completion of Sonic Lost World in 2013. It was developed using the Hedgehog Engine 2, an updated version of the game engine used to create Unleashed and Generations. The game was announced in July 2016 in commemoration of the franchise's twenty-fifth anniversary, and was released worldwide in November 2017. The game received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its presentation, visuals, and character creation system, but criticized its level design, technical problems, and lack of ambition.
