There is no shadow of a doubt that Sonic Frontiers had a fruitful start. It is difficult to criticize anything in this context because the developers broke away from the traditional expectations of the game Super Fast Hedgehog by providing the players with access to an open environment. As a result, it is difficult to criticize anything. And in spite of the fact that they were initially afraid and disheartened, a good number of people eventually discovered the new route.
The high number of sales, which the developers indicated quite some time ago, provides the clearest evidence of this. Now, the most recent chapter of Sonic’s exploits was the subject of a question-and-answer session that took place on Reddit. This particular Q&A panel focused on issues relating to SEGA’s finances. The studio, as it turns out, is very satisfied with the results, and they even admit that the results achieved by Sonic Frontiers surpassed their wildest hopes!
This is certainly encouraging news not only for the future of the game itself but also for the future of the brand since it was underlined throughout the panel that the game would soon receive its first fully-fledged downloadable content update. Is it possible that in the near future, we will see even more titles that center on the Blue Hedgehog? As a fan of the character who plays him, I, for one, am looking forward to it, and I have high hopes that it will have a beneficial impact on his life in the years to come. Sonic deserves it!
Sonic Frontiers is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
