"Sonic The Hedgehog" has a new trailer and a whole new look that resembles the Sonic that gamers learned to love.
After backlash at the character's design lit up the internet when the original trailer was released in May, director Jeff Fowler went back to the drawing board to redesign the title character, the BBC reported.
Now Sonic is sporting larger eyes and smaller teeth.

After month of hard work, they really nailed Sonic's design this time. The new design is cute, faithful and still very expressional.
