For the wired Xbox controller, fans can expect to see Sonic on a blue checkered background that's accentuated by stars, while the wired Switch controller features the Blue Blur racing at lightning-quick speed. The Nintendo Switch protective case features a similar motif, and the TriFold game card holder is a simple but eye-catching carrying case with the iconic Sonic logo printed onto it.

"As big fans ourselves, the PowerA team is thrilled to partner with the team at Sega to bring Sonic the Hedgehog and friends to our controllers and accessories," said Akio Strasser, Senior Global Marketing Director for PowerA. "With more than 30 years of Sonic, and multiple generations of gamers experiencing this franchise, we are so excited to bring these characters to life on our accessories for the first time."
