Sega has announced a new partnership with RPG masters, BioWare - creators of such games as Knights of the Old Republic and Neverwinter Nights. The reason for the partnership? A Sonic the Hedgehog Role Playing Game! Yes, thats right, Bioware will be developing a (currently unnamed) Sonic RPG. Furthermore, this new RPG will be comming onto the DS. That means no Sonic console love this time.

"BioWare is one of the hottest names in RPG development in the world," says Sega of America president and COO Simon Jeffery. "Everyone at SEGA has huge confidence that Sonic is in the safest of hands, and that BioWare can create the ultimate handheld RPG experience for gamers of all ages."

"We're thrilled to be working with SEGA on Sonic, one of the industry's most enduring and compelling icons," explains Greg Zeschuk, president of BioWare. Ray Muzyka, chief executive officer of BioWare adds that, "As huge fans of Sonic ourselves, we're committed to delivering a truly amazing story-driven experience within the Sonic universe, focusing on capturing the character's broad appeal and placing him in a completely original adventure."

This new Sonic RPG is currently set for release sometime in 2008. I expect we will be getting more details at this years E3 however. Untill then, keep checking back on Helm Games for the latest news!
