I kind of felt like Tails was like an on call "Super Guide" since he can rescue Sonic plus help him reach higher ground, which like past Sonic games have more to see. Pressing A raises Tails’ altitude, but you can only do this three or four times before Tails gets tired and drops Sonic. While you can’t fly through a stage, Tails has enough air time to rescue Sonic from a bottomless pit. If you use the combo technique in mid-air Tails can swoop in and pick Sonic up. See that hole? Tails can save you from falling in it. The level was designed with specific parts where you have to use this move to break through walls and carve a path in snow filled areas. Press X (on the Xbox 360 controller) and after a hi-five Sonic and Tails will roll up in a ball and spin dash together. I decided to race through the stage and used the new combination techniques.

I got to spin dash through White Park Zone, the second area of the game that looks like an amusement park covered in snow. Tails was the ultimate sidekick back then and he’s even more useful in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II. Eggman’s toxic blue gunk, Tails just falls off the screen for a few seconds and flies back good as new. When the two-tailed fox was introduced in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 he was immortal. Remember, Sonic’s 20th anniversary is this June, so maybe we’ll see some big things happening in the coming weeks.As a kid, I always thought Tails was more powerful than Sonic. That’s all the info revealed so far, but more info should be trickling out soon. We’ll get new zones and things we haven’t seen. ![]()
