Sonic Rumble is dropping globally on February 28th! ➜ SEGA is entering the multiplayer mobile space➜ Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie is out soon (transmedia strategy!)➜ The IP is now part of the Angryverse from Rovio Entertainment➜ The lore is bigger than everHaving worked on many collaborations before, here’s how I’d launch it on Apple Search Ads (ASA):1️⃣ Leverage the AngryverseA Sonic x Angry Birds collab is the perfect way to drive installs.
