Over the years, we’ve seen our fair share of highs and lows with the Sonic the Hedgehog series, from amazing entries like Sonic Generations and Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed to “what the heck?” titles like Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric. But many fans agree -- Sonic Mania Plus is one of the best games in the series, period.

And the critics are agreeing as well. The official Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter page recently posted a message talking about the accolades that the game has received, currently sitting at a 90 score on Metacritic (well, for the Nintendo Switch version) and garnering some huge raves.

“With a 90 Metascore on Nintendo Switch, Sonic Mania Plus is now the highest-rated Sonic game in 25 years,” the tweet notes. “Thank you for being there with us, every step of the way.” You can see it below, along with the image featuring a very pleased Hedgehog.
