On the planet of Earth/Mobius a war is being waged between humans and sentient animals called Mobians for the right to freedom. It’s fierce and it seems like the conflict won’t end anytime soon. A young Sonic The Hedgehog is separated from his family when special forces from the humans side try to kill him and his mother to get to his father who’s one of the leading freedom fighters for The Mobians. Now Sonic must journey across a devastated Mobius and make his way to a hidden colony where the Mobian forces are rallying their troops. Along the way Sonic will find others who’ve been affected by the devastation of war and together they will find their courage and become the (Sonic 😁) Heroes that their world needs. (IMPORTANT NOTE THIS IS VOICE ACTING CHOICES SO KEEP IN MIND THAT THE SOUND OF THEIR VOICES MATTER NOT THEIR LIVE ACTION APPEARANCES) (Random inspirations: Rise of The Planet of The Apes, Dawn of The Planet of The Apes, War for The Planet of The Apes, Guardians of Ga’Hoole, Land Before Time, and obviously Sonic comics)
