About Sonic Unleashed

Sonic Unleashed is a third-person platform game released on November 20, 2008, for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It was developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega as part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The game is rated E10+ by the ESRB and PEGI 7, and it is a single-player experience.

The game is split between two styles of play. Daytime levels focus on fast platforming that showcases Sonic's speed. When night arrives, the game shifts to slower stages where Sonic takes on a brawler style of combat as his Werehog form, fighting enemies known as Gaia creatures. The mix of action, adventure, and horror themes gives the series a darker tone than many of its earlier entries.

Sonic Unleashed combines the platform and hack and slash genres into one package. Players move between the two modes as they explore the game's levels, making the Werehog's combat a central part of the experience alongside the familiar speed-based stages.
