The open-world Sonic game has finally begun to appear. The Sonic Frontiers gameplay trailer offers us limited information and detail in terms of content, but we find answers to our questions such as how Sonic will fight, who will fight, what features it contains. Detailed information about the production will be made in June.
The open world could be the new release of the Sonic Frontiers series
Although all the development stages of the game are kept as a big secret, the Sonic Frontiers gameplay trailer shows us what a quality production is coming. We know that the production is an open world game and it will have a realistic terrain rather than cartoonish drawings. It houses an environment where we will explore forests, waterfalls, deserts and more while fighting enemies.
Sonic will not only fight Badniks as in previous games, we can see various types of enemies in the trailer content. In the 40-second trailer, we see Sonic sliding down the tracks, spinning a giant wheel (like a hamster wheel) to energize some kind of power unit, and spinning around his enemies in a spiky hurricane attack and destroying them.
In an interview published in June 2021, the developer of the series said that he hopes the upcoming game will be a reference to new Sonic games that will be made in the coming years. Takashi Iizuka continued, “Sonic Adventure laid the foundation for all Sonic games in the 20 years since its release, so the production that will be released in 2022 should have the same quality.”
Sonic Frontiers will be released for the XBox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, Switch, and PC in summer 2022. It will be Sega’s most influential entry into the market in recent years.
