Finally a true physical release for Sonic Mania, Sonic Mania Plus, better late than never:

91ziv13XK-L._AC_SL1500_.jpg


Includes:

2 New Playable Characters - Might and Ray
All new Encore Mode
Expanded 4P Compeition Mode
Deluxe Packaging - Holographic slip cover, reversible Genesis Sleeve, 32-page art book

More info on Encore Mode:

"Sonic Mania Plus expands on the original game with "Encore Mode," which lets players experience the singleplayer campaign all over again with some visual changes and different ways to play through levels, according to a Polygon report. This is primarily intended as a game mode players can try out after they beat the game."

And if you don't want to buy Plus you can download the extra content as DLC for the original/base game.

Originally was $23.99 if you had Amazon Prime, now it's back to $29.99, doesn't release until August:

Glad I waited for a physical release. Xbox One / PS4 release is cheaper than Switch on Amazon, at least in the UK. Looking forward to seeing this in 4K with PS4 Pro / Xbox One X support.

I have it on Switch and Xbone X. It's the same damn game. If anything the scanline filter looks better on the Switch set to 720p.

And yes, I bought it twice because I wanted to support the actual good Sonic game instead of being a faget and waiting for a physical version for my shelf that I'll never play.

I'll definitely purchase it again for the Switch physical version. Doesn't hurt to have the bonus content either.

"Sonic Mania Plus is coming to the Nintendo Switch in Japan later in July. If you are intending to get the physical copy of the game in Japan, you’ll be getting some more goodies on top of the game.

Some of the goodies include a 36-page artbook, an original 54 track (2CDs) soundtrack, a Sega Mega Drive style reversible cover, a special box, as well as, a copy of the game.

There will also be a special DX pack made available for ultra fans of Sonic out there. The DX pack will include a few more additional goodies such as a Green Hill T-Shirt, A Sonic Canvas Pouch, and 3 Magnet Art."

This is a great game imo, but some of the levels felt weak to me. I heat the airship level, hydrocity is very 'meh', and lava reef is nothing special. But there are some really good ones too - Press Gardens (I think that's what its called?) is my favourite. I'm excited for the new DLC, I hope its good but the new characters don't exactly entice me to buy it.
