Steve Aoki is set to perform a virtual concert in partnership with one of SEGA‘s most iconic characters, Sonic the Hedgehog.
The concert will feature a one-hour set from Aoki in an immersive Sonic universe with many of the game’s most memorable locales, like the Green Hill Zone and Chemical Plant. The DJ has also crafted a handful of remixes of fan-favorite tunes from classic Sonic games of the 16-bit era. Without a doubt, this will be the ultimate treat for longtime fans of the series.
“The best Sonic game is definitely the O.G. Sonic the Hedgehog. That’s the game that started it all for me,” Aoki said in a behind-the-scenes video. “That’s the game I was most obsessed with and you know I remember putting it in the genesis console and just rocking out.”
