Now, the official Sonic social media account has despatched Sonic followers right into a frenzy as soon as once more, with a brand new piece of paintings apparently that includes a really familiar-looking image. The main target right here is on what seems precisely just like the Triforce from the Zelda collection.
Earlier than anybody will get excited right here, no – it is most likely not what you could be considering. Professional Sonic followers have stepped in to clarify how the Sonic chameleon character Espio is a ninja and this image particularly behind him was utilized by Japan’s Hōjō clan:
