Featured reviews
This game is legendary, innovative and is the salvation of the franchise after the depressing sonic forces, it's satisfying to play, it has a beautiful story, amazing battles, unforgettable soundtrack, exciting ending and a more mature tone for the franchise because I think this is it the path that sega should follow, i was waiting for a game like this, because sega kinda got lost in the middle of the way because the critics seem like they just wanted to get into the games without analyzing it properly, this game was made with great care and he deserves your knowledge, don't care about criticism because he will suffer many, IT'S AMAZING!!!
Sonic has been kicked around for years for having lack of interesting gameplay towards his games, overall story, non existent character arcs and development in more modern times.
I've been a Sonic fan ever since I was 6 years old with my favourite game being Adventure. I'm 16 now.
I know a lot more fans out there have been there since the beginning, but Sonic means everything to me, and it almost brought tears in my eyes while I was playing this game.
Sonic Frontiers changes everything people thought about Modern Sonic, it changed what I thought about Modern Sonic and for the better. I always loved Sonic but it always hurt to see him drop in audience due to his games just being lacklustre.
The cutscenes, the overall expression within Sonic, the deeper tone and more serious story is exactly what they needed all along, with also beautiful stunning graphics and a fantastic OST, although that's no surprise of course.
This year was the year of Sonic The Hedgehog. Im so proud to be a Sonic fan, thank you so much for taking the time with this one, it was so worth it. 💙

I played many Sonic games and I think this is the only one have Open World. When I heard this announced I was like ''Open World Sonic game? I mean well hope they will do it right'' later heard camera will be like Sonic 06 and scared so much. Because I didn't want another 06 fiasco. BUT! Team Sonic promised they will handle this game and they kept their promise. Best 3D sonic game in recent years. Enjoyed every seconds. Very good camera,upgrade system,good voice acting and okay story. Turning into Super Sonic is the most satisfying thing ever. Tbh after played this game just remake Sonic 06....
Sonic Frontiers is Sonic's first open-world video game and it's not a bad foray by any means; but the grinding rails when you complete certain tasks can sometimes clash with the seamless open-world design and make things feel oddly rigid. Does this make the game bad? No. What about the story? Sure it's copying and pasting Zelda Breath of the Wild's homework in ancient technology (as well as Halo) and Evangelion's Herculean-scaled monsters, but it's still fitting the further you absorb the story and look over some of the obvious influences.
Basically, for a character as established as Sonic, Frontiers represents an interesting experimental phase for the character where SEGA's trying to see what sticks for The Blue Blur in the long run; and something tells me they're gonna keep trying new gaming twists (like JRPG stuff perhaps) alongside the more traditional platforming stuff the series has become known for providing; and it's nice to see open-world design finally in The Hedgehog's varied repertoire.
Sonic Frontiers is like a meal that tries having so many things all at once: some stuff works naturally, but the more 'far fetched' aspects give some nice flavour even if it's out of place for that part of the dish.
Sonic Frontiers is a good time with some flaws that are mostly forgiven here, and it's a bold playbook for franchise-'tweaking' in the 'Open-World Era' of gaming. 3.5/5 stars.

My first Sonic games were Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog on PS2. I had a blast with both. A kid's fun isn't something you can measure.
I didn't get an X360 until years later, and I had largely forgotten about the Sonic franchise.
Fast forward to 2020: Saw the Sonic movie in theaters & thought it was entertaining. Nothing more.
2022: Saw Sonic 1 again and then went to see Sonic 2 in theaters. Both were absolutely awesome. I started getting my hands on every Sonic game that I could and cemented myself as a worthy fan.
Let me begin by stating that I haven't yet left Kronos Island. But I am having an absolute blast since dropping into this new adventure.
It is a high claim I am making, but how does this game surpass the likes of Sonic Adventure 2 and Generations? Here are some reasons:
-Sonic's friends are fleshed-out characters
-Completely interactive overworld
-Deeply tantalizing OST
-Outrageous & cinematic story beats
-High-speed gameplay is at the forefront of everything.
