The latest trailer for Sonic Lost World for the Wii U and 3DS reveals that the hotly anticipated release is due to suffer a delay across North America.
The Deadly Six extended trailer, which features Sonic encountering each member of his evil enemies, confirms that the upcoming SEGA title won't reach the region's shores until 29th October, pushing it back a week from its previous scheduled launch date of 22nd October. Sonic's newest adventure is still currently on target for release in Europe on 18th October.
Sonic Lost World is coming exclusively to the Wii U and 3DS, and players look set to be in for a treat as the blue hedgehog explores a new world which is on the path to destruction courtesy of the Deadly Six.
Why not read our First Impressions, and let us know if you'll be dashing to the shops to pick up Sonic Lost World at launch.

...hours late but ok!!! it gives me a week more to play WWHD and pokemon so i dont care.
In my opinion, that boxart is damn awful.
Looks fun, i just REALLLLLLLLLY dislike the boss designs.
Delay is fine, im gonna be lost in AC4
This will be my birthday present to me.
...this delay does not affect me, because I was planning on getting it on November 14th or December 25th, anyway.
What's with that disgusting box art with that needless text just thrown in there? Yuck.
It now comes out the same day as Assassin's Creed.
I actually threw up in my mouth once I saw that Box Art.
Agree with you guys. It will give me more time to play WWHD, Batman, and hopefully put a dent in the backlog of games I have to play.
I like the normal Wii U Sonic Lost World box art, but I dislike the Sonic Lost World: Deadly Six Edition Wii U box art.
I think I liked the Deadly Six better when they were in Japanese, and I had no idea what they were saying... now this looks like one of those bad CGI cartoons they seem to like making on Nickelodeon these days...
Man a lot of the Wii-U covers have been beautiful. This one is another stunner.
It was the same day as Lego Marvel so looks like I'll be getting that first and this when that's done.
@MadAdam81 Mine too!
Anyone know what the pricing will be for both Wii U versions and the 3DS version?
@IceClimbers $39.99 for the Wii U and 29.99 for 3DS, but I could be off by +10 Dollars on each.
Was anyone surprised at the delay? With all Sonic games in recent years, Europe has always gotten Sonic a few days earlier than the America's. Almost every time too, America gets pushed back a month or so before release.
Those NiGHTS boss fights look great.
does anyone have any clue what it says on the wiiu boxart under the main title? lol
@DarkLloyd It says "Deadly Six Bonus Edition".
@Gioku
i wonder if thats the dlc suppose to be on disk
@DarkLloyd Yeah, that'd be my guess.
I won't have time for anything but Pokemon until at least November.
Good things come to those who wait. This is going to be good.
what sucks is the release dates all the games coming out at the same month if not same week -_- not enough to get everything nor play each one grrr >.<
@FishieFish I don't think it looks so bad, though nothing spectacular or even particularly eye-catching. The 3DS one in particular I can understand where you're coming from. The layout is all weird.
@DarkNinja9 Well, it's a good thing you don't have to get all of them on launch day, isn't it?
I'm a bit dissappointed. Really looking forward to this; just everything about it is simply amazing.
But a week isn't too bad, I'll have Arkham Origins to keep me busy 'till then.
Do you have to preorder to get the DLC nights level?
Cool with and the box art.
Really looking forward to this, will probably be the last Wii U game I buy this year. Everything else looks meh:P
@FishieFish I agree! Box art should be taken seriously. sometimes Box art can make or break me from buying a game!
I don't care as long as the Deadly Six Edition is made widely available, also by the looks of the video it appears 3DS wont be getting this Special Edition.
Its all emo up in here.
@Sony_70 No kidding.
It's only a week, guys.
Use the extra time to fix the box art.
If they need to take some extra time to fine tune this game, I have no problem with that. This looks great so far so I can wait a little longer.
I can't get Sonic until Christmas anyway so even a month's delay wouldn't affect me.
@FishieFish agreed, the trailer and deadly six characters are awfull!! Luckily the game looks amazing so I might have to tolerate some 'brats' style teen characters as part of that!
I can't believe they're actually promoting these characters... eww.
I really hope the release date stays the same in Europe. Sure, Pokémon X/Y and all that, but still.
Works for me anyways. I have two other games to get, Pokemon X and Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate
I didn't like anything in the trailers :s
1 week delay is nothing. Don't you people remember Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens: Colonial Marines? Sure, they are horrid games, but they got delayed for YEARS.
Better a delay than a rush.
A delay is better, Having it so close to Pokemon was a bad idea in the first place.
Darn, but I can wait.
@ClassicSonicFan Wow, I have the same birthday as Sammy. Go figure.
Man those bosses are horribly cliche... may be fun gameplay wise though.
Interesting.
