Apparently this was the massive, franchise-shattering news that Sega had promised was coming to all Sonic fans. Sonic the Hedgehog is getting a new voice actor. Not exactly the mostthrillingof megatons, is it?
Still, it’s somewhat interesting due to the fact that Sonic’s new voice has some videogame pedigree to his name. Roger Craig Smith will step into the hedgehog’s vocal chords, and if you’re wondering who that is, you may know him better as either Chris Redfield fromResident Evil 5or Ezio fromAssassin’s Creed 2.
Tails is also getting a new throat in the form of Kate Higgins, known for playing Naruto’s Sakura Haruno. Meanwhile, Dr. Robotnik will be keeping Mike Pollock, so no changes there.
Sounds interesting I guess, but they really should havegot me to do it.
