Nintendo Wii Media | Sonic Wild Fire

Sega have released a selection of screenshots from the upcoming solo Sonic project, Wild Fire. The blazing speed wonder returns in a Wii exclusive telling a story of the Arabian Nights.

Sonic's adventure tells the tale of the nights, however with pages of the book missing Sonic sets out to recreate the story in expansive and highly detailed environments reminiscent of some of the classic Sonic designs. The hero takes on new tricks, moves and an all new Wii exclusive control scheme as illustrated in the latest selection of screenshots.

Players use the controller, holding it horizontally to tilt the hedgehog in different paths to attack, dodge and avoid enemies. The controller is also used to attack with the flick of a wrist for aerial and ground moves. Sega are also developing a series of mini-games to compliment the controller, including multiplayer with friends.

Sonic Wild Fire hits retail in 2007.
