The final commemorative illustration of 2025 from Sonic Channel is here, and it is a really nice way to wrap up the year. This month’s artwork puts the focus on the Avatar from Sonic Forces, which released worldwide on November 7, 2017 and quietly turned eight years old this year. Time really does fly.
In the illustration, the Avatar is trying on Sonic’s iconic shoes. It is a simple moment, but it says a lot. On one level, it nods directly to Sonic Forces’ custom character system. On another, it feels like a gentle message about growth, admiration, and figuring out who you want to be as a new year approaches. There is something very relatable about that slightly bashful pose.
Sonic Channel shared the following message alongside the artwork, translated below:

We’ve released the commemorative illustration for December 2025! 🎨
This time, it features the Avatar from Sonic Forces. 🔧Wearing the same shoes as the one they admire, they look a little bashful. 🤭
You can aim to become someone who truly suits those shoes. 👟
Or you can choose to step forward just as you are. 🦶
Next year, what kind of you do you want to become?#Sonic
It is a quiet, thoughtful note to end the year on. Not flashy, not loud, just a small reminder that everyone moves forward at their own pace, whether they are chasing a goal or simply taking the next step as themselves.
Keep it locked to Sonic City for more translations and all things Sonic!
