Looks like a logo for the Sonic & Friends trademark was reportedly spotted in Japan's trademark office, according to Genki, a video game reporter.

Despite initial rumours of a new Sonic mobile game, community translator Windii seems to be convinced that the trademark may be related to an upcoming project based on the Chibi-style Sonic designs.

There are plans for SEGA Japan to release a series of short-form videos based on the Chibi-style designs on TikTok, as teased in a previous Sonic Station Live stream.

"Videos of cute Sonic and his friends will be available on Sega's official TikTok," read a graphic shared by SEGA Japan. "In addition, original TikTok effects will also be released."

SEGA has yet to officially acknowledge "Sonic & Friends".
