Today, SEGA of America announced the addition of the Chemical Plant Zone in their upcoming title Sonic Mania.
The Chemical Plant Zone is a riff on the classic hazardous second area of Sonic 2 for the Genesis and Mega Drive. According to a SEGA press release, there have been a few changes to this incarnation of the stage:
Unlike Sonic 2’s version of Chemical Plant Zone, the new makeover in Sonic Mania features additional routes, new hazards, and other new surprises, plus an entirely original Act II that … few will see coming.
Sonic Mania will also have new zones in addition to revamps of classic zones and a new drop dash move for Sonic.
The game is being developed by Melbourne-based Christian Whitehead, Headcannon, and award-winning indie development team PagodaWest Games. Those attending E3 will get the chance to try out Sonic Mania at the SEGA/Atlus booth.
