The hammer likely points to Amy Rose

In Sonic lore, a big hammer usually means one character: Amy Rose.

Amy Rose is famous for her Piko Piko Hammer, which she always uses in battle. So, when a recent Sonic image highlighted a hammer, fans immediately thought it was a reference to her.

Release window: March 2027

Fowler’s post repeats the current plan: Sonic Movie 4 hits theaters worldwide in March 2027.

That lines up with the widely reported U.S. date of March 19, 2027.
