Sonic Advance 2 (ソニックアドバンス２ Sonikku Adobansu Tsū?) is a 2002 handheld platform video game developed by Dimps and Sonic Team, and published in Japan by Sega, in North America by THQ, and in Europe by Infogrames for the Game Boy Advance. The game was released in Japan on December 19, 2002, in North America on March 9, 2003, and in PAL Regions on March 28, 2003. It is the sequel to Sonic Advance, and is based on a modified version of its game engine. Gameplay consists of the player defeating "zones" as one of five unlockable characters, each with their own unique attributes. After each zone is completed, the player faces Doctor Eggman, the story's antagonist, in a boss battle.
The game was later released on the Wii U's Virtual Console in Japan in February 2016.
Sonic Advance 2 is a 2D side-scrolling platform game, similar to earlier games in the series such as the first Sonic the Hedgehog. The player controls Sonic the Hedgehog, who can unlock Cream the Rabbit and her Chao named Cheese, Tails, and Knuckles the Echidna after defeating Doctor Eggman in specific boss battles. A fifth character, Amy Rose, can be unlocked after completing all of the game with each character. Each character has their own unique moves and abilities; for example, Cream and Tails can fly, while Amy can swing a hammer throughout levels.
