From Wikipedia:
"Sonic & Knuckles[a] is a platform game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis. Released on October 18, 1994, it is an installment in the main Sonic the Hedgehog series and a direct sequel to Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which released earlier that year. It follows Sonic the Hedgehog and Knuckles the Echidna in their respective quests to save Angel Island; Sonic tries to prevent Dr. Robotnik from relaunching his orbital weapon, the Death Egg, while Knuckles scuffles with Robotnik's minion, known as EggRobo.
Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles were originally intended to be released as a single game. However, due to time constraints and the cost of a large-memory-capacity cartridge, Sega split the project in two. The Sonic & Knuckles cartridge uses "lock-on technology" that allows the game to connect to the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 or Sonic the Hedgehog 3 cartridges, combining elements from either game.
Sonic & Knuckles was met with positive reviews. Critics were impressed with the lock-on technology, though some made note of its similarity to its predecessor.[3] It has since been rereleased in various compilations and on digital platforms such as Xbox Live Arcade, Virtual Console, and Steam. Direct sequels, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I and Episode II were released decades later, starting in 2010."
