==Release==
''Sonic 2'' was first released on 21 November 1992 in Japan. In the West, Sega of America had planned at first to make a tour of shopping mails across the United States to release the game. At the last minute, however, they changed their minds and considered that this plan was not "Sega" enough. A high-profile, global release was conceived instead. This was an unusual practice at the time, since the games' release dates varied by region. The game thus released internationally on Tuesday, 24 November 1992, a date called "Sonic 2sday" by promotional material.<ref>{{Cite web |first=Martin |last=Bryant |date=25 July 2015 |title=Sonic 2 and making a real impact with your marketing |url=https://thenextweb.com/news/miles-prower-is-still-a-terrible-name |publisher=The Next Web |accessdate=19 April 2023}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |author=Sonic the Hedgehog |date=24 November 2022 |title=Sonic the Hedgehog on Twitter |url=https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/1595970131489804289 |work=Twitter |accessdate=19 April 2023 |quote=It's been 30 years since Sonic 2sday and the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
