The Homing Attack made its debut in ''Sonic Adventure'' and became a staple move in the {{uv|Sonic}} series. It is Sonic's new main method of dealing with enemies and solving puzzles. Sonic had a similar attack in ''Sonic 3D Blast'', known as the Blast Attack, which he obtains after collecting a Gold Shield. With the Gold Shield, Sonic could home in and charge towards enemies. Unlike the Homing Attack, it does not lock on to the target.

Starting with ''Sonic & the Secret Rings'', a reticle appears when Sonic is in the air and near an enemy, indicating which one he would hit if he performs the attack. This reticle appears when Sonic performs the special move in ''Ultimate'', with the reticle’s design being from the Wii version of ''Sonic Colors''.

One of Sonic's custom moves, the Stomp, is a reference to a move of the same name that debuted in ''Sonic Unleashed'', and reappeared in ''Sonic Colors'' and ''Sonic Generations''. As its name implies, Sonic dives downward with a double-foot stomp at a fast speed. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', however, Sonic performs it by slamming the ground with a Spin Attack, making it more similar to the Bounce Attack from ''Sonic Adventure 2''.
