Sega’s new Sonic game – which was apparently in development for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Wii U – has been verified as incorrect. The game was unofficially revealed by toy maker Jazwares at the Nuremberg toy fair last week, detailing a 2015 date for the gaming platforms, but Sega has quashed such rumours by issuing an official statement, saying it is “yet to announce details” of upcoming games, though a third unannounced Sonic title was previously revealed as part of Nintendo’s exclusive deal with Sega.

“Sega is yet to announce details of upcoming console video games for Sonic the Hedgehog or further details regarding the new Sonic CG TV series. The recent information coming out of Nuremburg Toy Fair was incorrect.
