Sonic the Hedgehog 2 – Beta 4 Found

A new glimpse into Sega’s development history has been found:  A previously unreleased prototype of Sonic The Hedgehog 2:  http://hiddenpalace.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(CENSOR_prototype)

There aren’t any drastic changes from the final release and most were small things like adding a signpost for a “save” area:

So, overall, nothing drastic, but still a fun glimpse into the development cycle of one of the most popular…and many people’s favorite Sonic game of all time.
