Eight months after defeating Dr. Robotnik Mustache and being adopted by Tom and Maddie Wachowski, Sonic the Blue Hedgehog tries to become a superhero to save the world, but he seems to come nowhere but unfortunate disasters. Not a time for a fantastic hero, anyway!!!

Robotnik Mustache reappears, this time with the help of Knuckles the Echidna - the Red Hedgehog to find the Master Emerald - an ancient relic that allows the possessor to bend reality to their will (Oh, they should have approached Marvel's Scarlet Witch for some help). The red hedgehog Knuckles wishes to honor the legacy of his extinct tribe and mistakenly believes in the friendship (partnership maybe) with the Robotnik in Mustache.

Home alone while Tom and Maddie go to a wedding of their sister on an island, Sonic is unexpectedly attacked by Robotnik – Knuckles, but fortunately thanks to his big fan the two-tailed Golden Fox Miles "Tails" Prower, he could survive.

Later, when Robotnik the Mustache captures the Master Emerald and builds a giant robot to conquer and rule the world, the three animated characters Sonic, Knuckles and Tails join forces to fight back.

During the climax of the war, when the Master Emerald is broken into 7 Emeralds of Chaos, Sonic use them to transform into Super Sonic, defeating the giant Robot of the mad Mustache.

The film has many magical elements that make viewers relate them Marvel movies such as: the reality-altering ability of the Emerald (like the hex ability of the Scarlet Witch), chaotic energy (Chaos), teleport created from the ring (like the portals of Dr Strange and Wong)… However, the animation and fun of the movie sets things interesting in another way.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is released by Paramount Pictures in theaters in select international markets from early April 2022. With a budget of $90–110 million, the film grossed $375 million at the box office as of May 23, 2022, being considered a major commercial success. It is scheduled to hit the Paramount+ streaming service on May 23, 2022, 45 days after its release in the US.

In February 2022, Sega of America and Paramount Pictures confirmed that the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 feature film and a spin-off TV series centered on the red Hedgehog Knuckles character were in development for streaming on Paramount+ in 2023.

Based on the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 credit video, movie 3 would probably introduce another Hedgehog character, Shadow the black one. In the games, Shadow is portrayed as a mysterious, shrewd, and brooding anti-hero. Although his ultimate goal is to protect the world from danger, he does not like humans (he is something another Ultron of Marvel), and once he has set a goal, he will do whatever it takes to achieve it. , regardless of consequences and prices.

Shadow the Black Hedgehog is sometimes an ally and sometimes an enemy of Sonic the Blue/Gold One.
