If you're a fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, chances are you enjoy games that play at intense speeds and provide a real sense of forward momentum. Well, a lesser-known game singing from that same hymn sheet is bound for PS5, and it looks like it's worth your attention.

It's called Haste, and while it's yet to be officially announced for PS5, its Trophy list recently popped up on Exophase, which pretty much confirms it.

Here's a gameplay trailer to give you the idea:

While it does have some things in common with Sonic, Haste is doing quite a lot to differentiate itself.

You run, jump, and glide through procedurally generated environments, avoiding hazards and going as fast as possible as the world collapses behind you.

It's a roguelite, and between sets of levels you're able to spend an in-game resource on incremental buffs and new equipment to improve your chances.

There are various worlds to blitz through, each with their own obstacles and huge boss fights.

The Trophies appear to be fairly straightforward, though the jury's out on just how challenging some of them will be.

The game launched on Steam last year, where it's enjoyed a consistent Very Positive user score with thousands of reviews.

Obviously this doesn't quite fill the hedgehog-shaped gap in our lives, but Haste looks like it'll deliver some high-speed thrills in the meantime. We expect an official announcement is on the way soon.
