A release date has been set for the fourth Sonic the Hedgehog film which will introduce some more iconic characters from the video game franchise.

Following the tremendous box office success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Paramount has announced that a fourth film, Sonic the Hedgehog 4, is coming to theaters on March 19, 2027.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has set a new record ahead of its digital release, becoming the highest-grossing of the entire series. Set for digital release on January 21 in the US, the threequel, which sees Sonic, Tails and Knuckles form an alliance with Dr Robotnik to defeat Shadow the Hedgehog, has yet to confirm its release in the UK.
