Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is a Nintendo DS console role-playing game based on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. It is being developed by Canadian RPG developer BioWare, who is now part of Electronic Arts. The game is scheduled to be released in 2008 in North America and Europe.[1]
A preview of the game was featured in the February 2008 issue of the Nintendo Power magazine, giving details on the game features and confirming its name. It also confirmed that there will be 11 playable characters.[2][3]
Gameplay
Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is an RPG that will be fully controlled by touch screen control. There will not be any random battles, you will be able to see an enemy on screen. The battles will be turned based. Each character in the game will have a specific ability, such as Tails being able to fly. The player can have 4 party members at a time, and will be able to split into teams during the game.
Special attacks in the game will be made by tapping and dragging on indicated locations on the touch screen of the Nintendo DS. These are done by "Fatigue Points", which are similar to "Magic Points" (MP) in other RPGs. The player will choose which attributes to increase when leveling up, and you will be able to buy special attacks using rings as currency. The battle system is inspired by Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga in that Characters can attack in combination.
The game will have two acts, one set in a standard Sonic area, while the other one will take in a "darker world". There will be sidequests in the game.[4]
Story
After defeating Dr. Eggman, Sonic went on vacation for two years. He gets a call from Tails to inform that Knuckles has been kidnapped by a group of Marauders, and 6 of the 7 Chaos Emeralds are missing.
According to BioWare, Eggman will not be the main villain, but he will be a "more credible bad guy again". The game will have fully animated cutscenes.[5]
The game also introduces a new character, Shade. It is still a question to who or what Shade is and whether she will oppose Sonic and Co. or ally with them.
