[singlepic=120,,200,,left]
Knuckles has been confirmed to appear in Sonic Unleashed, making him the 4th confirmed character in the upcoming release following Sonic, Tails and Amy (Not counting Super Sonic and Werehog Sonic). From to the UK’s official Playstation Magazine:
That’s all we wanted to hear! Fewer characters, more Sonic!

awesome!!! more Sonic and less characters!!! Im guessing the “new” character the magazine was talking about is the werehog? this is looking better and better! its a must-buy!
It’s certainly shaping up to be a must buy in my opinion. I’m really hoping we get some more Sonic Unleashed Videos showing off gameplay in the near future, but SEGA has been pretty quiet lately.
Onlay Sonic is alright, but I want to see Tails and Co. in the game.
Just see in the story, it´s not worse if I couldn´t play them, but just Sonic is….well I love Sonic but Tails and Knuckles are a ” must be in every Sonic game”. There are lot of new charakters but they HAVE to be in the game.
Well SegaSonic, both Tails and Knuckles are in the game. We learned in ONM that Tails and Amy would both be making appearances in Sonic Unleashed:

And in the recent release of the Official Playstation Mag, we discovered that Knuckles will also appear in Sonic Unleashed. You got nothing to worry about mate ;)
Well, i hope shadow is in the game. His presence would make the story darker and more mature, think sa2.
Voltaire, I respect your opinion, but I think a lot of us retro Sonic Fans have had just about enough of a hedgehog with guns.
My opinion of course. We’ll have to wait and see.
I like sonic, knuckles and tails,….(the classic trio), and eggman…
the anothers can appear in less protagonism..
sa2 had no guns.
I will be happy is this game does sticks with the original sonic characters, though I have nothing against all his other friends it might prove to be a more “pure” if you will Sonic game if it sticks to its roots even more with Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles.
I’m right there with you Pete. I could really use a good’ol fashion Sonic game =)
The latest sonic games had had crappy storylines, and what i meant by shadow is that i hope sega comes up with a solid story. Sonic Heroes was a disappoinment, and sonic 06 was just terrible. Im hoping for gameplay better than secret rings, and thats ultametly what matters most, but i also what a good story, and sa2 had the best storyline of any sonic game, and im sure the introduction of the antihero hedgehog had somthing to do with that.
ps. Shadow the Hedghog shouldnt have been made.
Great!!!!!
tails ,knuckles,amy and shadow are in the game.I hope that others characters are in too like rouge,silver and blaze.
eh….eh….eh……i heard that jet,storm and that girl of babylon team were in toooooo!!!!!!!!!!yeah!oooopppssss…………it is just a lie hi hi hi dont get too excited it is a lie eh eh eh
God i hope not
thank god Knuckes is here cause he is ma favorite character in the whole series. I would love a cut scene with Knuckles fighting with Werehog Sonic
why have amy? she stunk in sa1
sweet knuckles is comin out!!but why amy i mean i hate her why does she have to be one of the startin charecters why not just the three sonic knuckles and tails?oh well…hey at least sonic is still the main charecter.I LOVE SONIC!!!!
I wish for Shadow to be in, since he might be just the guy who can bring Were-Sonic back to his senses might he go somehow berserk.
YES!!! Knuckles and Tails in the game!! I really dislike tons of charactres, but tails and Knuckles (along with sonic) are definatley my faves. I was dissapointed to hear that Knuckles was not playable in superstars tennis, and shadow, amy, tails, eggman and sonic were. I really hope that tails and knuckles are playable characters. I know it says starring roles, but i really hope they are playable. We’ve never been able to properly play as them for years, I still play SA2 because each character could be playable on their own. (SA1 is the same) I know the game is all about the hedgehog, but i dont want it to be sonic specific like the ’secret rings’ game was. Because it got boring being sonic ‘all the time’ -_- thanks for reading, sorry for the huuuge comment, but thanks for sharing the information! Camp Sonic is awesome!
I’m sad that they kicked Silver out. He is only in hmm. 3 games? Sonic in hmm…ALL OF THEM!! (Maybe in Tails Adventure idk.) And I’ve had just about enough of Shadow. Shadow ruined SA2 Because they made Him look like the best character and not Sonic. (He died… Hip hip hooray) But then here comes Sonic Team and they make him in Sonic Heroes. “Talk about being stubburn and full of surprises.” The only thing good about Sonic Heroes is that There are a whole bucnh of Shadow thingies at the end of team dark which means they are a whole bunch of shadows out there. Not that I hate him, I’m just SICk of the guy. Lol Sonic rulez and so does Silver and tails and knux but not amy. (REPLACE HER, SOMEONE!!!) Sorry for long comment
@AllHailSilver: *takes a deap breath* Okay. First, Sonic is in all Sonic games because they are SONIC games! Second, I assume you’re a Silver fan, right? Why would you want him in a game with a werewolf?! The “silver is a werewolf’s weakness” jokes would be retentless. Third, there are many people who enjoy/love/obsess over/are a fan of Shadow. Finally, Amy came before Knuckles, so in my mind, she has more of a right to be in the newer games. In conclusion, please try to stay positive about Unleashed and Sonic in general. Who knows? We may be in for a surprise!
Thats good, Knuckles is cool and all but his gameplay was so boring in sa1 and 2, i hope this game is all sonic and his werehog form. Maybe he can be in Multiplayer if theres gonna be.
I loving this game
I glad they using Tails and Knuckles ,but Amy more or less
I hope you play as knuckles and Tails (maybe Blaze or Sliver) too in story for one level or tiny part or mutliplayer or online at least.
I wonder if he’s playable
I don’t know why no one else did this before, but I just used this announcement to update wikipedia’s list of characters on the sonic unleashed article.
Well, according to part of the fanbase, the endless creation of new characters made things quite complicating and confusing. I guess there IS such thing as having too much characters after all.
Sonic games have traditionally released one brand new character EVERY time. I’d be hard pressed to think of one where that didn’t happen. In this case, it appears to be the were-hog, which is fine by me.
Three is a solid number. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles make a great and compatible trio. My personal opinion is that these newer games should continue the trend of introducing new characters, but make them exclusive to each game. The part that got everybody got all annoyed about was Sega trying to incorporate EVERY character into EVERY game. That’s just overkill, and it’s what got things feeling all clogged up and convoluted.
@admin: I think the whole werehog concept could be an interesting twist for the better
I hope he has something to do with the Master Emerald.
i want knuckles to be a playable character like in SA2B that would be cool
WHAT THE HECK NO ONE WILL THINK ABOUT ANY OTHER CHARACTERS COULD TURN INTO A WEREWOLF FOR GOD SAKES
how sonic and chip will met and when at nights sonic transeforem into a werehog does chip knows he turns to a werehog.
Well I love Sonic since it was my firsth video game(while my friends was Mario).Im glad they introduce Sonic friends to the game,becuz it make the game better and less monotomy.I like Sonic and his closest friends wich are Tails,Amy and Knuckles…and I also like Shadow and his crew Rouge and Omega.They are all awesome!!!!!!!
The dude below me speaks the truth! 4 more days people!!
The werehog is definatly a nice twist. Its to bad a lot of people think he is just some stupid idea that wasn,t thought through for very long. Any way,I had watched a interview like video the other day and one guy had said that knuckels and shadow would be making an apperence in sonic unleashed or (sonic world adventure) I have heared quite a few people say that they are half way through/completely through with the game on all councels except the ps3 and said the hedge hog and echidna havent showed up.Can some one who has played the actual game or who posetively knows PLEASE tell me whats going on with the two characters? I really adore knuckels and shadow,s presence in games and there addition to the other characters wouldn,t be to many in my opinion.Sorry for the long comment!
@fluffywerehog:
omg fluffy werehog lol thats such a cute name but i heard knuckles isnt in the game
sorry guys, but I am on the last level of the game and I have not seen knuckles or shadow, and i doubt they would come in on the last level only. I was also hoping they would be in the game, but they’re not. :(
I’ve played through the entire xbox 360 version of Sonic Unleashed.
Tails and Amy are in it but I haven’t seen Knuckles. If he was confirmed as a character why isn’t he in it? It would’ve been cool how Knuckles and the werehog met.
@Hannah the hedgehog: sega lies
A. Cosmo (sonicX) could replace Amy
B. It would ruin it if more than 1 werehog
C. prof. pickle is probably the new char.
@bob joe: Yeah, I am at the same place and I have seen neither hie nor tail of Knuckles
