New Sonic Forces Promotional Art Revealed

[Zippo]

Straight from Japan's official Sonic Twitter. Looks rather neat.

New merchandise also shown off.

Why 3 custom characters on the resistance side instead of Amy, Vector, Silver, etc.?

Guess I'm team Eggman

[Dannymax440]

The Eggman logo is pretty snazzy and does fit the story.

[JosepHenry]

Tails and Knuckles sure are getting a lot of focus....

[Meta77]

Well I know what my new desktop wallpaper is.  man I can't wait for this game. I'm loving this

[James Cloud]

This is so Captain America Cival War I love it I hope for a higher res for wallpaper!

[Guest]

I really love this art, would love to have it as a poster!

Much more dynamic than what we've seen for a while

[Dee Dude]

I NEED THOSE SHIRTS!

[Danj86]

With Tails and Knuckles there again, it does seem to tie in with those rumours that @Joseph Henry mentioned in a status update.

So if I want to show that I'm on #TeamEggman, I have to wear the shirt backwards?

[Jango]

Kinda reminds of the Sonic Adventure 2 BATTLE cover art.

Too bad these OC ruins everything :V

[Ming Ming Hatsune]

Three avatar characters instead of Amy, Espio, Vector and others. Really?

Perhaps this implies that Baldy has several other villains under his thumb... (Mecha Sonic, Rouge, etc.)

status update repost

And.... Rumors about Tails amd Knuckles being playable on Forces are starting to show up... 
At this point I would say that's not impossible. 
They are in the boxart, poster, and T shirt 

this french review says that the in the final game, some of Sonic's friends are going to be playable, and speculates that it could have Knuckles or even Tails.

"Besides, the member of the staff who presented me the title blew me that certain companions of Sonic will be playable in the complete game. One can imagine certain phases in which one will control Knuckles or, why not, Tails." 
Google Translate btw. 

[Red Hot Jack]

I had the same theory, since they are in various renders and even the boxart, they might be playable, you might have seen the lack of a fox species for the avatar...

[Kuzu]

If there's one thing I will commend this game for, they're going all in with the promotion. Haven't done that since Unleashed.

[JingleBoy]

A Sonic game that's about the forces of good and evil and we have 2 Sonics and a bunch of generic OC's for the good side

 

Sonic Forces, I really want to like you, but your potential to be something really cool is being squandered... ?

Well, duh. The avatars are a big part of the game.

[SBR2]

Well I like it. I should just copy and paste that to save time. XD

There was also a rumor for Silver being playable in the game. 

[Pawn]

There's probably a rumour about Marine the Racoon being playable. I wouldn't read too much into it.
