According to this Ripten story, a Sega admin has confirmed that Sonic & The Black Knight is a real project.

The game popped up over the weekend, seen featuring on an upcoming cover of US mag Nintendo Power.

“I can confirm the game is indeed real, however you won’t get any info on it from me, you’ll have to wait until we post the product page tomorrow on SEGA.com and read the Nintendo Power article,” said the staffer.

The tomorrow the guy refers to there is today. So watch for more details later.

Well, you can’t knock Sega for being predictable, at any rate. A thread on NeoGAF is touting a scan of Nintendo Power’s September issue, which features Sonic front and center, clad in a jeweled gauntlet and hefting a sizeable blade. The cover proclaims the game’s title “Sonic & The Black Knight.”

Aside from the fact that the cover looks pretty legit, this “announcement” was hinted in the last issue of NP, so we’re fairly sure this isn’t just a mean prank.

That does not, however, mean we hope it isn’t.
