BioWare, recently acquired by Electronic Arts, has been confirmed by SEGA to be making a Sonic RPG, in the same vain as Baldur's Gate. BioWare are well known for making RPG games: These include Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Jade Empire and Mass Effect.

Not much is known about the game, except that it will be in a top-down style view, with cell-shaded graphics similar to exploration on Sonic Rush Adventure.
