Kess Entertainment is a newer game studio, with a handful of published titles. The best known of these is Mega Man Adventures, a semi-cooperative board game that pits Mega Man and his allies against various classic bosses. Kess has also published a Spy vs. Family card game.
Surprisingly, Sonic has been featured in several tabletop games, with the most recent being Sonic the Hedgehog: Crash Course, which was a racing game involving multiple Sonic characters as racers and used a variety of customizable tracks. Another recently published game was Sonic Dice Rush, where players raced to build the best Sonic track by collecting track pieces designated by various dice combinations.
While Kess Entertainment hasn’t made any additional announcements about where Sonic Roll will be available, fans can sign up for updates on their website.
