Listings mentioning an October launch were briefly live on GameStop and Target’s websites, but have since been amended.

As the next mainline 2D Sonic game, it’s no surprise that Sonic Superstars is a game that a great many people have their eye on, but though Sega has confirmed that the game is due out sometime this Fall, a specific release date for the title has yet to be unveiled. Recent retailer listings, however, may have spilled the beans on that.

As spotted by @Wario64 on Twitter, pre-order listings for Sonic Superstars recently went live on a number of retailer websites, including the likes of GameStop and Target, and both of them mentioned a launch date of October 17 for the 2D platformer. The listings have since been amended to only mentioned a placeholder release date of December 31, and Sega has yet to officially confirmed a concrete date.

If Sonic Superstars does indeed launch on October 17, it’ll be yet another major release crammed into what’s looking like an incredibly busy period for game releases. Currently, games scheduled to release in the middle period of October include Forza Motorsport, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Alan Wake 2, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and more.

Sonic Superstars is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
