Iizuka cites a specific example where one player can be so far ahead in a level within a single frame, which could introduce lag in a co-op setting. The decision to make the co-op local only came from a practical perspective: to accommodate for the gameplay’s speed. In an interview with VideoGamesChronicle, Iizuka explains that the game was built around the idea that Sonic Superstars could be comfortably played with four players.

Much like Nintendo’s platformers, Sonic Superstars has four different playable characters: Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose. With the four-player co-op some fans have compared Sonic Superstars to the New Super Mario Bros.

This is the first time the series has tackled fully functional four player co-op, with previous games having incorporated multiplayer co-op play with limited functions.

This can be seen with Superstars having 3D graphics instead of using sprites like Sonic Mania, incorporating new power-ups via the Chaos Emeralds, and the aforementioned four-player co-operative play.

Sonic Superstars was first announced during Summer Games Fest earlier this June, where the game will be revisiting its retro roots with a touch of modern elements. Sonic Superstars does not have online co-op.
