Capcom vs. Sonic the Hedgehog (株式会社カプコン ＶＳ ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ) is an upcoming title developed by Capcom, Sega and Winduct. The game is a crossover fighting game featuring characters and stages from Capcom and the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The game features an Arcade Mode, similar to all previous Capcom vs. games. The game contains a story and plot which unravels while unlocking each character's ending after completing the Arcade Mode. The cutscenes of the game are fully 3D CGI.
Wesker learns of the powerful 7 Chaos Emeralds which will help him in the completion of his Uroboros Project. Dr. Eggman creates a portal through time and space and enters the world of the Capcom universe which he plans to take over and dominate. The two villains unite to achieve their purposes.
Gameplay[]
Gameplay in Capcom vs Sonic the Hedgehog is similar to Capcom's previous fighting installment Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds. Each character has his/her own unique fighting style and attacks. The game features a tag-based team feature, identical to Marvel vs Capcom, where the player can choose 3 characters and swap at any point during gameplay, pulling off combos. Like in previous fighting games, the purpose of the game remains the same, draining your opponents health gauge and defeating all 3 of their characters. Characters will have 3D models but the gameplay will remain 2D with characters only moving forward, backward and straight up into the air.
The game features a three-button control scheme as well as the "Exchange" feature where the player can swap characters during performing attacks in mid-air and slamming the opponent to the ground. Players can use each button to string together combination attacks, as well as perform special moves using a combination of button presses and joystick movement similar to Marvel vs Capcom 3. As characters attack, their Special Gauge fills with energy which can be expended by the player to execute powerful Hyper Combos and Team Combos that involve multiple characters.
Modes[]
Like all Capcom vs. games, Capcom vs. Sonic the Hedgehog features an Arcade Mode where the player fights against artificial intelligence controlled opponents to reach the final boss character. After defeating the final boss the character's ending is unlocked which is a cutscene. By emerging all the cutscenes the game has a storyline and plot. There is a Vs. Mode where the player engages combat with another player and Online Mode where the player engages combat with players from around the world. Players gain points during fighting which are used to unlock characters, artwork, stages, music etc. The game also features a new Mode called Zombie Mode where the player must kill as many zombies as possible in a specific amount of time. The fight takes place in Willamete Parkview Mall.

Sonic, Tails and Zero also fight alongside Megaman X to stop Mephiles. As Megaman is about to strike him, Mephiles opens his stomach to reveal Date inside him which causes Megaman to hold back his attack, not wanting to kill Date.

Mephiles quickly defeats him and grabs the Chaos Emerald but as soon as he steps out of the temple, Silver, Blaze and Megaman await him. Knuckles, Arthur, Big and Viewtiful Joe also arrive to defeat him. Mephiles uses his powers to create a huge snow avalanche which targets the heroes. Silver quickly uses his telekinetic powers to stop the avalanche and target it onto Mephiles, but Mephiles's powers are far too strong. Blaze turns the avalanche to fire and saves the heroes. The battle goes on as Silver lifts rocks, snow and icicles and throws them to Mephiles which Blaze and Megaman attempt to reach the top of the temple.
Sonic: Tails locates the heroes and arrives with his Tornado along with Sonic and Zero to stop Mephiles. Sonic jumps to the battlefield while Talbain silently attacks Mephiles from the back causing him to drop the 1 Chaos Emerald. Sonic races to obtain it but he is suddenly attacked by Metal Sonic. The Chaos Emerald falls down the mountains and into the abyss.

While inside the huge fortress, Talbain and Arthur attempt to destroy the bombs but it's too late. The bombs go off and the whole place starts to collapse. This works as a diversion to the heroes for Mephiles to escape with the Chaos Emerald. Only 1 more left...
Dante: The scene opens with Dante watching the news from his office. G.U.N. has secured the final Chaos Emerald and is protecting at all costs. Hundreds of soldiers are dispatched to a new large base called Prometheus Base, where the final Chaos Emerald lies in a secured vault. He is soon interrupted by Team Chaotix who bust into his office.

Wesker claps his hands to express his amazement and teleports right next to her. He begins a conversation with her and then creates an arena from the debris using his powers. The scene changes back to the heroes who, altogether, watch the invasion happening right in front of their eyes and team up to stop it.
Final Story[]
The scene opens with a view of the burning base. G.U.N. soldiers and robots fight against Eggman's army. More heroes arrive in the scene of the action (Ryu, Chun-Li, Frank, Fang, Morrigan, Talbain, Blaze and Silver) to assist G.U.N. and defeat Eggman.
Eggman's giant robot approaches the heroes who have the Chaos Emerald in their hands and opens fire but he is countered by Tessa's magical attacks. This causes the Chaos Emerald to be blown away and fall to the ground. Eggman quickly makes for it but Sonic is faster. He grabs the Chaos Emerald and quickly dashes away with Eggman chasing him. The heroes agree that it's high time to act and scatter. Eggman continues to pursue Sonic and opens fire, however, Sonic is able to dodge all of the attacks. As Eggman approaches Sonic, Megaman X comes bursting into action. Sonic's hands over the Chaos Emerald to him and the pursuit continues. Megaman hands the emerald to Knuckles, Knuckles to Morrigan, Morrigan to Espio and so on. Eggman keeps chasing the Chaos Emerald which is tossed from hero to hero.
Meanwhile, looking for a challenge, Wesker challenges Juri to a showdown and the two characters engage in fierce combat.
Eggman continues to pursue them in vain. Tails comes in flying with his tornado plain and shoots Eggman. The Chaos Emerald is now in Arthur's hand who keeps on running while throwing potions to Eggman's cockpit. A furious Eggman shoots two pillars which cause the entire place to collapse. As the ground collapses, Arthur falls inside the debris and into a tunnel.
The fight between Juri and Wesker keeps on going. Juri uses all of her powers to attack Wesker but he is too powerful. While fighting Juri makes fun of Wesker and mocks his fighting style. Wesker becomes enraged, grabs her by the throat with one arm and attempts to choke her. While the fight goes on, Arthur suddenly lands near the arena and witnesses the fight. As Juri continues to laugh, Wesker pulls out her left eye and crushes the Feng Shui Engine in his palm. Juri falls down to the ground, defeated and screaming in pain. Arthur becomes scared to death and gasps in horror, revealing his location. Wesker turns around and notices him and the Chaos Emerald he has in his hand. Wesker slowly starts to approach. Arthur tosses him fire bottles but Wesker destroys them with his hand easily. As Arthur comes face to face with Wesker, he pulls out his sword and points it to him for defense but Wesker grabs the Chaos Emerald from Arthur's hand with gentle calmness. He turns around and prepares to leave but Arthur comes running after him, this time with his spear. Wesker turns around and delivers a powerful attack on Arthur, which sends him flying away, breaking his armor. Having obtained the final emerald, Wesker disappears.
The scene changes to the rest of the heroes who help each other to their feet and rise from the ruins of the base, injured and exhausted, while Eggman heads back to his battleships. The G.U.N. Commander and an army of soldiers come and congratulate the heroes for their bravery but it is too late. Eggman and Wesker have gathered all of the Chaos Emeralds and the worst are yet to come. It slowly begins to rain.
Meanwhile, inside the main battleship, Eggman and Wesker gather the 7 Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald. Eggman reveals that he has kept what has been left of Mephiles inside a capsule in order to preserve him. As he is ready to put in action his evil plan, Wesker betrays Eggman by absorbing the energy of all of the Chaos Emeralds. Before Eggman is able to prevent him, Wesker grabs him by the throat and throws him outside to the main deck. He then breaks the capsule, allowing Mephiles to fuse with him. As he makes his way outside to where Eggman lies injured, Egg Pawns try to stop him but they are easily destroyed. Wesker goes to the main deck and reveals to Eggman that he never wanted to cooperate with him. Surprisingly, Eggman also claims he would soon betray him. With the power of the 7 Chaos Emeralds, the Master Emerald and Mephiles' dark powers, Wesker, now mutating into a dark figure, flies to the sky and creates a black hole.
The heroes watch horrified as the skies are torn apart and Eggman's battleships are sucked inside. Wesker heads for the cooling towers of the base and so do every G.U.N. operative left in order to stop him. All of the heroes unite, placing their hands on top of each other. They agree to help Dr. Eggman and stop Wesker. Rouge and Shadow go to the battleship to save Eggman from being sucked inside the rift while the rest of the heroes go to the cooling towers.
Wesker awaits the heroes and prepares himself for the final battle. Every character charges on Wesker and fight him but with no result. While fighting, Silver uses his telekinetic powers to destroy the cooling tower and bury Wesker under the debris. Not only does Wesker rise from the ruins but he transforms into a giant monstrosity of pure dark energy and heads to another cooling tower. From out of nowhere, Dante suddenly attacks Wesker in his demon form and seriously injures him, revealing that he is after all vulnerable. The final fight begins.
After defeating the final boss, Wesker loses the power of the Chaos Emeralds by the attacks of Dante's sword. Sonic collects the Chaos Emeralds, transforms into Super Sonic and finishes him off. The cooling towers collapse and the rift closes, sucking Mephiles inside. The heroes gather around the ruins as a ray of sunlight emerges from where the rift closes. Peace is restored to the world.
Sonic watches the Capcom heroes sitting amongst the ruins and chatting with the Sonic heroes (each Sonic character interracting with its Capcom counterpart). Sonic finds Megaman X and thanks him for his help by shaking his hand. He then opens a portal with the Chaos Emerald to Capcom's universe. The game ends with the Sonic heroes watching the Capcom heroes departing to their world.
