Set across the gorgeous Starfall Islands, Sonic finds himself enjoying th🀅e luxuries of "open-zone freedom" as he battles Dr. Eggman and a whole crew of robotic baddies. 

Following its reveal in 2021, we've seen plenty of Sonic Frontiers gameplay and had the chance to play it ourselves, but there are still a lot of unanswered questions. So what we're going to do here is focus on what we do know, Focusing on the ꧙latest Sonic Frontiers news,🐎 gameplay, and details that we think you should know ahead of release.

The Son🙈ic Frontiers release date is now set for November 8, 2022.

Sonic Frontiers trailer 

The Sonic Frontiers trailer is a tease of what to expect from the blue hedgehog’s next adventure. Things kick off with Sonic belting it through a forest and being pursued by three robotic aircraft that appear to explode just as they catch up with him. The hedgehog is then thrust forward before slowing up as he approaches a knife-edge cliff face. As he turns around, he looks visibly shocked, gaping at the land𝕴scape before him. It’s then the camera goes free-form as it snakes around the sprawling “open-zone” world, filled with rolling hills, lush vistas, and towering waterfalls. Before the title screen reappears, we hear a machine of sorts re-calibrating, and again see the pink robotic glow of the aircraft featured earlier.

Sonic Frontiers gameplay 

With the Sonic Frontiers gameplay, Sega says "we are challenging ourselves to deliver an all-new style of Sonic action adventure. We're once again expanding the Sonic Universe, bringing in new environments and additional features, to create a totally new type of open-zone experience." At least, that's what creative 🌠officer Takashi Iizuka told GamesRadar+ in an exclusive interview earlier in 2022. 

Sonic has found himself in open zone areas for the very first time, after falling through a wormhole and losing contact with his friends. What we've seen so far showcases lush-looking landscapes, the sort of velocity we've long hoped to see fr𝓀om the series in the 🏅3D-era, and combat that looks like it's struggling to settle into the new format. 

We went 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:hands-on with Sonic Frontiers at E3 𒉰2022, and found that it made a bad first impression. We played a new build later in the year, covering a different area of the game, and were s𒊎urprised by just how much Sonic Frontiers feels so much like Breath o🅘f the Wild. Basically, there's a lot more for us to learn about the game ahead of its rel🥀ease in November, so watch this space!

Sonic Frontiers story

Sonic Team creative officer Takashi Iizuka told GamesRadar+ that "🌼the team set out to create a compilation of high-speed Sonic action games that flipped the usual Sonic storyline on its head," in Sonic Frontiers, with the game "taking place in a world where the evil Dr. Eggman had prevailed."
