After teasing a first-look at Sonic Frontiers, IGN has revealed the world premiere gameplay showcase for the game. The 7-minute video sees Sonic traveling through an open world, sparsely decorated with things you'd expect to see in a Sonic game: rings, springs, and rails. There's a large tower ala typical other open world games, that Sonic can climb to the top of. There are puzzles to solve that can unlock new areas, as well. Sonic Frontiers will be out before the end of the year, with more gameplay scheduled to be shown next week.

too greyish for me, i mean the worlds on old sonics looked so much more fibrant. i don't feel this... world graphics are more what i want in zelda like games...

Can we just enjoy a Sonic game for what it is and not be judgemental? This is why I don't listen to Sonic Fans cus they nicpick over everything or say "this is not I wanted or this isn't how a Sonic game should be" to the point they start sounding like a bunch of confederates.

A Sonic Game's a Sonic Game. Be thankful it's not Sonic '06 and everything's fine!

I've always been into the idea of a Sonic open world game, feel being able to run super fast in a massive world, like, up and down and all around and such, up walls, on the water and whatnot would've been hella cool...
Trailer isn't super inspiring... welp, guess Sega fucked it up after all, despite me telling them not to :/

You don't make Sonic games so how would you know if this gameplay style fits?

I don’t make them obviously, but play them to know enough since it’s release in 91.

You don’t have to agree with me, it’s my opinion.

More trash for the furry fandom.....

Honestly, this doesn't even look that bad. It's interesting at least. I don't even mind mostly empty open worlds since I grew up on GTA. All they need to do is go the Tony Hawk route and add lots of things you can jump or parkour off of so going from point A to point B has the potential for fun.

I'm so glad that you actually have to fight now.

I'm so glad that you actually have to fight now.

you dont have too, unless you need some coins im guessing, they dont seem to follow you or do much against you.

I meant there is an actual fight. Not just not a simple homing attack or boost.

The combat gameplay looks really boring and slow, too.



I seriously hope Frontiers becomes a good, no, a great game. I'm tired of bad Sonic games.

I'd even take Sonic 06 over Sonic Forces or Sonic Boom. Sega has a thing for "Let's see how bad we can make this Sonic game to be."

who chooses a build that is old to showcase their game? lol and 6 months is nothing cosidering 2 of them are probably set for mass production, and with the track record of the sonic team to send unfinished games out of the door, this will just be another one imo.

Reminds me of people saying theres still 8 months left for pokemon legends arceus, for sure they will improve the graphics, and they didnt lol.

The game needs to be close to finished by now, and the last couple of months are for fixing bugs and crashes mostly, not for making worldbuilding or radical changes, or else they wont have time to fix the bugs before release.

this will either be delayed or sent off as is.

and of course, it was an early build, still, that's very bad for marketing and they're probably gonna regret doing that.

IGN released a new gameplay video and still, it looks pretty dull.

But hey, there's always Sonic Origins.

Trailer:



This does not make me wanna play it or feel slightly excited. Sonic Frontiers still looks boring, empty, and dull.

I guess Adventure fans will enjoy it.
