Quickly following news of the Sonic Adventure 20th Anniversary OST re-release delay, listings at Amazon.co.jp and YesAsia.com have outed a new release of Sonic Adventure 2’s OST.
Like with the Sonic Adventure OST listings, there’s no cover art or track list, but both retailers give a release date of June 22nd, which is just 1 day before Sonic’s 20th birthday. There is also no indication of which version of the soundtrack this re-release will be, or whether it will be a new selection altogether.
You can pre-order it now at Amazon.co.jp for ￥2,400 and YesAsia.com for $28.25/£18.36.
We’ll bring you more details as they’re made available.

Ugh… all these CDs… it’s going to be expensive.
I wonder if there are more soundtracks then just these two that’ll get a 20th anniversary addition?
28.25 USD? Sorry, but I’m not spending that much. If it was like $15 maybe…
Well, this is quite fair. SA fans deserve at least some present for the anniversary.
Finally, we can get this officially without worrying if it’s bootleg or not.
I’ve got the soundtrack already so I don’t really need a second one. I don’t have that kind of money. I also have to take into account the amount of money I’m going to spend at SOS’11.
Any chance you could get a batch of these to sell at Summer of Sonic? I wouldn’t mind waiting until then to buy them
With the new sonic game there should be a collectors adition that has the soundtrack for the game and one of those game guide things
“June 22nd, which is just 1 day before Sonic’s 20th birthday”
Don’t you mean the day after Sonic’s Birthday cause IIRC its June 21st and not the 23rd?
Nope, his official birthday is June 23rd.
“SEGA® Corporation is proud to announce that Sonic the Hedgehog will celebrate his 20th anniversary on June 23, 2011.”

i already preordered. having the ost wold be nice instead of my downloaded copy
Despite SA2 being the start of the .. horrendous line up of 3D Sonic games, the soundtrack was boss. Throw it all away is one of my fav songs of all time
@Jix
To me SA2 is one of the best sonic games (especially 3D) there is. I can’t say if it’s better than Colors to me as I haven’t played it, but definetely better than Sonic Unleashed sonic-stages, those are ofcourse pretty similiar to Colors gameplay.
To me, Sonic Adventure 2’s speed stages are the best out of any 3D Sonic game ever. Since then, no game has come close to that level of greatness except for Sonic Colors. I can’t wait to get my hands on this soundtrack.
