Sonic Team Head Says Fortnite Sonic Is An Android

VGC News and Nintendo Life reported remarks from Sonic Team head Takashi Iizuka about the Fortnite crossover. He stated that the Sonic in the game is an android rather than the real character. This distinction permits the figure to fire guns. The actual Sonic will never hold a gun, the director noted. The posts quote Iizuka directly on how the version fits the collaboration while preserving the original traits.
