A new leak has allegedly revealed the name of the rumored Fall Guys-inspired Sonic the Hedgehog spin-off, which is said to be titled Sonic Toys Party. On top of that, this leak has supposedly stated that the game will support up to 32 players in its multiplayer mode. This spin-off is likely to be a part of the franchise's momentum for 2024, as Sega has previously expressed interest in developing Sonic titles exclusively for mobile devices.
This Sonic the Hedgehog spin-off was first leaked by MbKKssTBhz5, or Midori, a reputable leaker who had provided information regarding a number of Sega titles in development. Midori has given gamers a lot of new information about Sega's plans to build on the mobile gaming market, such as a new game involving the return of the Chao Garden from Sonic Adventure 2. This new leak has seemingly provided more information regarding a title she previously discussed, a rumored Fall Guys-inspired title, such as its gameplay.

Following the recent Sonic x Shadow Generations reveal, Sega explains how Shadow's new story mode ties into the original game.
This leak was shared with Insider Gaming, with the site's sources having shared internal videos of the rumored Sonic mobile title. It will be a free-to-play game codenamed "Project Toys," with Sonic Toys Party being the expected final name. Per Midori's previous claims about Sonic Toys Party from this past January, the game will be very similar to Mediatonic's Fall Guys. The gameplay videos shared with Insider Gaming apparently confirm this, though the videos themselves were shared by an anonymous source and asked the site not to share the footage publicly.
Sonic Toys Party Gameplay Breakdown
According to Insider Gaming, the videos apparently show various Sonic characters battling it out in 32-player matches. Some of these playable Sonic characters include Sonic himself, Tails, Shadow, Knuckles, Dr. Eggman, Amy, and Metal Sonic. Sonic Toys Party will have players compete in obstacle courses, fight bosses, and features various objectives such as racing to the finish, collecting the most rings, or being the last one remaining.
Midori would later confirm these details herself, stating that Sonic Toys Party had been in development for at least two years. She also shares that there are plans for Sonic Toys Party to have crossover collaborations with IPs like Persona. Midori reiterates that this game is being structured as a free-to-play live service title that can appeal to a global audience. This is apparently backed up by Insider Gaming as well, where rings act as an in-game currency that can be used to open chests that unlock new costumes, emotes, dances, and much more. Sonic Toys Party hasn't been officially revealed yet, so these leaks should be taken with a grain of salt until more information is confirmed.
