Sonic Team is a Subsidary of Sega. Sonic Team has been making games since 1988.

Founded as an internal studio -- known as Sega AM8 R&D -- in 1988, Sonic Team came to worldwide prominance with the release of 1991's Sonic the Hedgehog.  The success of that title prompted their change of name to Sonic Team, and has, for better or worse, guided much of their work ever since. Led for much of its life by designer Yuji Naka, Sonic Team has released a number of innovative titles that defined both Sega and the console gaming world as a whole. 
 
While Sonic Team is most well known for Sonic titles, they have released a number of other games, including Nights Into Dreams, Burning Rangers, Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Universe, Samba de Amigo, Chu Chu Rocket, and Feel the Magic: XY/XX.
  
Following the merger of Sega and Sammy, United Game Artists was incorporated into Sonic Team. 

In 2006, Sonic Team head Yuji Naka left Sega to form his own company, Prope.  After his departure,  Takashi Iizuka became the head of Sonic Team.
