Knuckles Season 1 – A Look Ahead into The Release

Knuckles the Echidna, the hot-headed guardian of the Floating Island, is finally getting his spotlight. There have been a lot of insights regarding the show’s return and release but it looks like there’s a lot the wait is finally going to be over.

After years of stealing scenes alongside Sonic the Hedgehog, Knuckles is ready to take centre stage in a brand-new miniseries titled simply “Knuckles.” It will be an action-comedy series that will peek into a different side of the gruff warrior.

To give you all the insights about Knuckles Season 1, we will delve into the available information that we have now.

When is Knuckles Season 1 Releasing?

Knuckles premieres on Paramount+ on April 26, 2024. 

This marks the character’s first solo outing in a television format, building upon his appearances in the Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise. The series is positioned as a miniseries, so whether it will be renewed for a second season remains to be seen.

At this point, it will only be a matter of time before we take a peek into what’s going to happen next. It will be pretty interesting to see how the creators showcase this brand-new world or side of the characters. However, it looks like there’s not much to explore.

What can we expect from Knuckles Season 1?

The official trailer throws some intriguing hints about Knuckles’ solo journey. After seemingly saving the world with his “little friends” (as he begrudgingly calls them), Knuckles is left grappling with the question: what does a super-powered warrior do for fun? 

The answer isn’t yoga or reading, as the trailer suggests. Knuckles seems determined to carve his path, one that likely involves protecting the Floating Island and the Master Emerald. But trouble always finds Knuckles, and this time it comes in the form of a mysterious new villain seeking the Emerald’s power. 

The trailer hints at a potential betrayal, high-octane battles, and Knuckles forming an unlikely partnership with a new character. Besides that, there are a lot of theories and possibilities that the fans have theorized, including:

• Free from the immediate threat of Dr. Eggman, Knuckles is forced to confront his own identity. Will he embrace his role as guardian or seek a new purpose?
• Free from the immediate threat of Dr. Eggman, Knuckles is forced to confront his own identity. Will he embrace his role as guardian or seek a new purpose?
• The trailer gives a glimpse of Knuckles teaming up with a new character, possibly a human or another Mobian. This partnership could be the key to overcoming the new threat.
• Despite the serious threat, the trailer promises plenty of Knuckles’ trademark gruff humour. Expect witty dialogue and slapstick moments alongside genuine character development.
