The forthcoming Sonic Frontiers’ director has remarked that the game’s new approach is considered an evolution of the brand. There are just a few days before the game’s release, and Sega and Sonic Team have been working hard to promote it. This features a brand-new Sonic Frontiers clip that focuses on the greatest change – open-zone gameplay – as well as other areas like fighting and monsters. With the game modifying the formula for the blue speedster, the game’s director discusses how this may affect future Sonic games.
When Sonic Frontiers’ open-zone gameplay was originally announced, it was regarded with cautious hope at best and dismal scepticism at worst. There were several analogies between Breath of the Wild and Sonic Frontiers, which Sonic Team chief Takashi Iizuka attempted to dismiss. However, as time passed, the fanbase’s reaction to Sonic Frontiers became more favourable, with many now eagerly expecting its release. Morio Kishimoto, the game’s director, also commented on the game’s upcoming release.
The game creator announced the imminent release of Sonic Frontiers on his Twitter account, and according to a poor translation, stated his concerns about the game. He said that he and his team have spent five years attempting to update the franchise’s concept and that it won’t be long until players can see what they’ve been working on. In a subsequent tweet, he praised the numerous supporters who had sent him encouraging words about their enthusiasm for the game, noting that it had helped him to relax as well.
