To celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog’s 26th birthday Sega has launched Sonic Baby Air Hockey, a classic air hockey game reimagined for younger children.
Designed for use in arcades and family entertainment centres (FECs), Sonic Baby Air Hockey has a narrow playing field and a lower height so that younger children can use it easily. It features a scratch resistant surface and reinforced structure designed for durability.
The game also has an LED scoring and timer, Sonic-themed sounds and an optional ticket vend so it can be used as classic ticket redemption game.
Justin Burke, general manager at Sega, says: “ Our Sonic-branded games have been growing steadily while demand has also continued to rise. The current TV series and a multitude of consumer games on various platforms are helping players engage with this great license through various touch points. By launching Sonic Baby Air Hockey we wanted to extend that experience to kids too.”

leisure hub of China’s 72-million strong Greater Bay Area, the city began adding shows,
attractions, and family-friendly hotels. But the offering that truly stands out with fun
for everyone is Studio City Water Park – Macau’s first stand-alone water park, with all
the water slides and aquatic play structures supplied by WhiteWater. |
