IGN has provided us with extensive gameplay of the demos for the Wii U and 3DS versions of Sonic Lost World, both of which will be shown and playable on the E3 show floor next week. The videos can be seen below.
What's shown is the return of the Cyan Laser and Yellow Drill Wisps from Sonic Colors (of which only the former is used), and a new purple Wisp is shown in the 3DS version that has a similar function to the Violet Void. The commentator in the Wii U version also describes the parkour system and how Sonic's controls have been reworked to allow the player to control his or her speed, allowing for precision platforming and running with the press or release of a shoulder button. The Spin Dash and Homing Attack make a return, and a new kick-based move is added to Sonic's arsenal. The Red Star Rings are back as well, five being in each Act. Acts will either be a mix of 3D and 2D (like Unleashed), solely 2D (like the classics), or will be all in 3D and feature Sonic permenantly going at top speed (like the mach speed sections of '06, but playable). The 3DS version will, for the first time in handheld Sonic history, feature full 3D levels. The Flame and Thunder Shields also reappear in the 3DS version.
References to past games such as Sonic CD and Sonic Riders are ridden throughout all three videos. Can you spot every reference?
