Candy Crush Saga Holds Collaboration Event with Sonic the Hedgehog
Paramount Studios and King have announced an exciting collaboration event for Candy Crush Saga, bringing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 into a casual match-3 game. Starting March 31, players can look forward to treasure hunting with Sonic and Tails in a completely different way, as the blue candies from the game have now been replaced with Sonic-themed boosters, with the beautiful music from the movie getting players excited.
In the Candy Crush Saga x Sonic the Hedgehog 2 collaboration event, players will team up with Sonic and Tails to retrieve the emerald master from Dr. Robotnik until April 4. They’ll help replenish Sonic’s energy, collect Sonic Spin Dash Candies, and unlock delicious treats and boosters.
“Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is about teamwork, exciting adventures (to save the world!) and fun. We are excited to partner with Candy Crush Saga, leveraging the King game experience, and a loving and engaged fan base,” said Irene Trachtenberg, SVP of Global Partnerships at Paramount Pictures. “It’s exciting to pair these two iconic franchises for a unique experience that will allow Sonic fans and Candy Crush Saga players alike to be surprised and delighted before the film’s release.”
“Partnering with Paramount on Sonic the Hedgehog 2 presents a tremendous opportunity for the King team,” said Jennifer Sharp, Vice President of Mobile Partnerships at Activision Blizzard King. “Sonic is a character loved around the world and a character that fits perfectly into our game’s narrative. We hope that viewers of Sonic and Candy Crush will be interested in the exciting new world we have created together. It’s important for us to continue to innovate and bring fresh new experiences to Candy Crush players, and Paramount is a great partner in this process.”
If you want to join in all of these events, you can download Candy Crush Saga on the Google Play Store for Android devices or on the App Store for iOS devices. This is a free to play game with in-app purchases.
