Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2 rated by ESRB for consoles, PC

The ESRB has granted Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode 2 an “E for Everyone” rating on the PC, 360, PS3 and Windows Phone platforms, thankfully without dyeing its sideburns in the process. Usually, an ESRB rating is indicative of an impending release date announcement or, in the case of badly promoted games, an impending release.

Android, iOS and Wii classifications are missing from the ESRB’s breakdown of the title, which isn’t to say that those version don’t or won’t exist, but it is a good sign that they may not be among the first batch of platforms to receive Sonic 4: Episode 2. Still, it’s at least reassuring to know that the game exists, which is more than some people can say.
