Games[]
Sonic the Fighters[]
Hyper Mode appears as a power-up in Sonic the Fighters, which can be used for a brief time by any of the game's playable characters in exchange for one of their shields. Hyper Mode increases the speed of their attacks, increases the number of attacks they can chain together, and allows them to use their most powerful attacks. Hyper Mode only lasts for a few seconds, after which the character will return to normal.
Neither Metal Sonic or Dr. Eggman, the game's two boss characters, can access Hyper Mode. In the game's 2012 port for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Honey the Cat is additionally able to access Hyper Mode, but Metal Sonic and Dr. Eggman are still unable to even as playable characters.
