Roger Craig Smith announced today that he’s returning as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog in future games! The community of fans have shown their support ever since his initial announcement of departure was made. It seems like a deal between Smith and SEGA was made since then as he will continue the role going forward. Here’s what he had to say on Twitter:
I can't fully express my gratitude for the @sonic_hedgehog crew and community.?
I hope to honor your support and passion as I'm officially back voicing #SonicTheHedgehog in games.
Can't wait for ya to see what we have planned!
THANK YOU…from the bottom of my blue heart.? pic.twitter.com/KOLi2MJnUi
