In addition to releasing Sonic news and goodies on a monthly basis, SEGA will also be planning out Sonic-themed events throughout the year.

With the Sonic the Hedgehog movie coming out next month and a new game coming out next year, 2020 is shaping up to be a big year for the Blue Blur, who is just shy of turning 30, speedy and thriving.
