About This Game

Sonic Rumble is a fast-paced online party/battle-royale game where up to 32 players control toy-like Sonic characters across short rounds of obstacle courses and minigames to collect rings and win. Matches are arcade-style and chaotic, with character Skills, cosmetic skins, and seasonal content driving progression and events. Tone is family-friendly and cartoony, but primarily built around online multiplayer and in-game purchases.

Age Recommendations

ℹ️Ages 3-5

Not recommended for this age group. The game is online-only and includes in-app purchases and interaction with strangers; if a younger child plays, do so together and disable purchases where possible.

ℹ️Ages 6-8

Play with supervision. Short, supervised sessions are fine for fun; enable parental controls on stores to prevent accidental purchases and avoid online matchmaking with strangers.

ℹ️Ages 9-12

Generally acceptable with guidance. Suitable for kids who understand online safety, but parents should restrict or monitor spending and enable any available chat/interaction filters.

ℹ️Ages 13-15

Appropriate for teens. Warn about real money spending, aggressive monetization, and community behavior; encourage using mute/communication limits if needed.

ℹ️Ages 16-18

Suitable for older teens and adults. Enjoyable multiplayer party gameplay, but be mindful of high cosmetic prices, season passes, and potential toxic interactions.
