You may remember that several weeks ago, Sega Europe managed to leak its entire release schedule to the world, no doubt resulting in much bottom-kicking at the outfit’s HQ.
One of the games was called Giant Egg, and today, the fuller picture behind the intriguing title has emerged.
Fully titled Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg, the game is a platform outing from Yuji Naka’s acclaimed Sonic Team R&D studio. And that’s about it for now.
With the game being unveiled at E3, Sega America’s Mike Fischer, never short of an over-corporate dripping quote, said, “Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg is pure Sonic Team magic. A dizzying blend of fast action, hypnotic gameplay and one-of-a-kind characters, Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg is, without a doubt, the next big thing from the legendary Sonic Team."
Let’s hope that the game features Billy Hatcher, a boy experimenting with hatching eggs, trying to make a robot pop out from one of his many calcified ovoids. He adds a moustache and a pair of red stripy trousers, and all seems well.
Then one day, a little man hatches and within hours, is enslaving rabbits and trying to take over the world. Billy Hatcher’s Giant Egg is the birth of Eggman, better known outside of Japan as Dr Robotnick!
Or not.
We’ll no doubt find out more come E3.
