Plenty of new information about Sonic Boom was released by Sega yesterday, including the fact that the Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS versions will be entirely separate games connected by the same lore. Aside from that, we discovered that Sticks is a playable character in the Nintendo 3DS version of the game, Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal.Perhaps the biggest piece of news is that the Wii U game’s full title is Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and that it will be the first game on Wii U to utilize Crytek’s CryEngine, an engine that EA previously said underperformed on the Wii U due to its hardware limitations.Nintendo announced today that the Wii U game will be releasing in November, with both titles being playable at this year’s E3.

It looks like a great game, I'll definitely be buying it on day one. Looks similar to Jak and Daxter (which i was hoping it would since it's being developed by ex-Naughty Dog staff) and it really doesn't look like any Sonic game I've played before.
I just hope Nintendo have some good games scheduled between E3 and Winter/Holiday 2014 because I really thought this would be out in Autumn and I don't want another game drought.
