System: Wii Release date: 13/03/2009

As of May 20th, 2014, the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service was discontinued and it is now no longer possible to use online features of Nintendo DS/DSi and Wii software such as online play, matchmaking, competitions and leaderboards. For more information, please visit our Support section.

Blistering speed and swordplay combine in Sonic and the Black Knight, as Sonic the Hedgehog enters a new realm on Wii. The second game in Sonic’s Wii-exclusive storybook series catapults the famous hero into the colourful world of King Arthur’s Camelot.

Upon his arrival, Sonic is tasked with a dangerous mission by the granddaughter of legendary wizard, Merlin. It seems that Sonic alone possesses the power to wield the ancient sword Caliburn and end the reign of the tyrannous Black Knight. But is everything as it seems in medieval Camelot, or is Sonic speeding straight into untold danger?

With the Wii Remote in hand, you hold the power to swing Sonic’s sword by making gestures – immersing you further into the action as you battle fearsome knights, strange creatures and powerful bosses. As you progress you’ll gain access to special attacks and powers that make you a more lethal force to contend with.

The frantic action takes place across thirteen visually stunning environments, in which you’ll scale castle walls, race through forests and propel Sonic over moats by jumping onto giant crossbows.

Away from the main adventure, you can put your swordplay skills to the test against up to three friends in multiplayer battles. Playing as familiar characters from the Sonic universe, you’ll have to contend with challenging computer-controlled enemies as well as your human opponents.

Are you worthy to wield an ancient blade and save Camelot from corruption? To save the day in Sonic and the Black Knight, you’ll have to be!

  • Enter Camelot and take control of Sonic as he explores the kingdom and fights to unravel its mysteries.
  • Swing the Wii Remote like a sword to defeat the enemies that stand in your path.
  • Challenge up to three friends in action-packed multiplayer battles.
