Godzilla Stomps Into ‘Sonic Rumble’ on December 22 [Trailer]
If you’ve ever wondered what it’d be like to have Godzilla take on Sonic The Hedgehog, Sega and Toho are making it happen in Sega’s party battle royale game Sonic Rumble. Starting December 22 and lasting just one month, the King of Monsters himself emerges in Sonic Rumble in a new stage that sees players scrambling to survive Godzilla’s rampage.
The event for Sonic Rumble adds the Godzilla Survival stage, which sees players out on a ship on the ocean, which just so happens to be in the path of Godzilla’s Heat Ray. You’ll need to quick reflexes to avoid Godzilla’s attack on up to three boats.
Godzilla’s not the only one you’ll need to worry about, as several Shockirus have jumped on board. You’ll need to run fast to dash and dodge the destruction and the Kaiju. Oh, and you’ll only have one chance to respawn.
There’s a roster of legendary monsters available for you to collect and play, allowing you to unleash your inner Kaiju and dominate the chaos. Available with the Free Pass, you’ll get Godzilla and his Heat Ray, as well as his buddy, Rodan. As for the Premium Pass, that will earn you another skill for Godzilla in the Nuclear Pulse. You’ll also unlock King Ghidorah and his Gravity Beams. Mothra is also available to join the fun.
In the RSR Shop, you can also snag Mechagodzilla and the chilling Absolute Zero blast, and Destoroyah with the Variable Slicer.
You can play Sonic Rumble (for free!) on PC via Steam.
For those keen on following up on our mid-year best-of list for video games, iam8bit and Yacht Club Games are teaming up in a new collection for Mina the Hollower, which not only brings the game’s iconic soundtrack by Jake Kaufman and Yuzo Koshiro to vinyl, but also offers fans some cool merchandise.
