* In the launch trailer, there's a part where certain zones are displayed inside rings. I can make out Flying Battery, Mirage Saloon, Lava Reef, HydroCity, Stardust Speedway (future) and possibly Oil Ocean. What are the rest of them?

** Sonic Forces states that its incarnation of Classic Sonic comes from another dimension (unlike the one from Generations who was from the same dimension's past), and heavily hints it's the Sonic from Sonic Mania. That would put Mania in a parallel dimension to Sonic 4, and the rest of the mainline games.

** It might be due to the Phantom Ruby. Its ability to warp time and space may have affected the Master Emerald/Super Emeralds and caused Angel Island to go down to surface level. Perhaps it warped the island so quickly that Knuckles didn't even notice it happen.
Added DiffLines:
** Eggman probably used the space-time warping powers of the Phantom Ruby to capture it again. As for why it's chained to Angel Island, my only guess is that Eggman wanted to plant his new base close to the Master Emerald's shrine and/or screw with Knuckles.
