Penny’s Big Breakaway is a new 3D platformer developed by the Sonic Mania team
I’m seriously hyped.

The recent Nintendo Direct was full of surprises and one of the biggest ones was definitely an announcement of Penny’s Big Breakaway, a brand new 3D platformer coming from the team behind Sonic Mania.
While this project doesn’t have a lot of similarities to the critically acclaimed Blue Blur video game, it promises a speedrun-centric slant with its Time Attack mode. We’ll also have a lot of yo-yo-based attacks which the titular Penny can modify with various snack-based power-ups. We also have mentions of secret stages and unlockable bonus items, so it definitely feels like the game will have a big replay value, which is definitely a plus in my book.
Penny’s Big Breakaway is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in Early 2024.
