A "story mode" allows players to play through the four games sequentially in anniversary mode, with new animated cutscenes that bridge their stories, which are also seen when launching or clearing each game in either mode, respectively. Both modes use the Retro Engine version of each game, aside of the emulation of the original game in classic mode. Origins features two versions of each game: "classic mode" is the original format, presented in 4:3, while "anniversary mode" features support for widescreen displays, removes lives, and allows Sonic to use the "drop dash" from Sonic Mania.
SONIC BLUE SPHERES FOREVER UPDATE
The Plus update will add all twelve of the franchise's Sega Game Gear games to the collection. The " Blue Spheres" minigame from Sonic 3 & Knuckles is also included, along with an all new version called New Blue Spheres, which added additional sphere types from Sonic Mania (2017). The Plus update adds this feature, as well as the ability to play as Amy Rose across all four titles.
Unlike the originals, the player can control Tails and Knuckles in any game, though notably, the base game does not include the ability to play as Knuckles in Sonic CD. They traverse side-scrolling levels at high speeds while collecting rings, defeating enemies and bosses, and finding secrets. The player controls Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, and Knuckles the Echidna as they attempt to stop Doctor Eggman from stealing the Chaos Emeralds. Sonic Origins compiles and remasters the first four platform games in Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series- Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992), Sonic CD (1993), and Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles (1994)-originally released for the Sega Genesis and the Sega CD. An expanded version adding new playable characters and the 12 Game Gear Sonic games, Sonic Origins Plus, is scheduled to be released physically and as DLC for the original on June 23, 2023. It received favorable reviews critics praised the enhancements and presentation, but criticized the downloadable content (DLC), replaced music in Sonic 3, lack of features, and additional bugs not present in the original games.

Origins was released digitally for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Windows, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One on June 23, 2022, the series' 31st anniversary.

It was primarily developed at Sega, though Simon Thomley, who worked on Sonic Mania (2017), developed the remaster of Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Origins was conceived following the release of the 2020 Sonic film due to the influx of new fans, Sonic Team head Takashi Iizuka wanted to make the older Sonic games available on modern hardware. Origins adds additional game modes and missions, which allow players to unlock content in a museum. The games are playable in their original format and a new widescreen format that removes lives. It features remasters of the first four platform games in Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series- Sonic the Hedgehog (1991), Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992), Sonic CD (1993), and Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles (1994)-originally released for the Sega Genesis and the Sega CD.
