    This game is goated, has good graphics but has pop ins but i can look over that as the game has many redeeming qualities, the soundtrack is awsome the story is nice and gameplay is very fun, not my favourite sonic game but surely goated

    Another absolutely underdeveloped mess from Sonic Team. Seriously, why do they keep pumping out broken garbage and the fanbase keeps lapping it up without any criticism? If this is all you want, this is all you're ever going to get, but good grief this game is broken, boring, janky nonsense.

    The best game in the franchise. The story is great and the characters well written, finally. The gameplay and core mechanics are really fun. Sonic Frontiers is definitely an amazing game and lays the ground work for the future and I can't wait for the next one.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sonic Frontiers is a great step in the right direction and I thoroughly enjoyed my two play throughs of the game. It’s obviously not a perfect game and I feel the game takes a massive dip in quality particularly towards the final two islands as they reuse the island theme from Kronos, the first island. There are more things bringing this game down such as it’s anticlimactic “true” final boss, the abysmal pop in that distracts you as you play and the magnet like feel sonic has to the ground which is especially noticeable on the third island. The best things about the game has to be its absolutely amazing OST. The titan boss fights are the best parts of the game by far with these Metal Gear Rising like rock themes playing as you go. The combat in this game also isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. It’s no DMC 5 but it’s definitely a solid combat system. All that being said this is probably the most fun I’ve had in a 3D Sonic title since Sonic Generations and I hope they use Frontiers’ more open gameplay in Future games. Expand

    --Positives--
    -Ambitious open zone with lush environments and beautiful music to accompany it
    -Great physics, allows you to pull off speedy strats, especially with rails.
    -Serious story, with good mystery elements
    -Cyber Space levels, the linear levels in the game, are extremely fun to find speedrun strats with.
    -Amazing vocal themes. Won't spoil anything specific that hasn't been revealed, however:
    -I'm Here, the main theme, is absolutely amazing. Vandalize, one of 3 possible ending themes, is also really great.
    -Boss themes are genuinely perfect, please go through this game unspoiled to get the full experience.
    -Combat is really fun to combo with, especially on enemies like the Ninja class of robots, who are really fun to dodge and parry.
    -Boss fights are some of the most fun I've had with a video game in years. Please, save your game in the extra slots before them, to ensure that you can go back and replay these gems.

    --Negatives--
    - Cyber Space often reuses level aesthetics & designs. Up to you to decide if you prefer originality or fun.
    - After island 3, the game becomes slightly less visibly polished. Islands 4 & 5, (no spoilers) just seem like they were after thoughts. They're fun to play, but they feel less polished.
    - Story mystery is great, but the reveals are under cooked.
    - The different endings are locked behind difficulty, so it's kind of hard for players of certain skill levels to achieve certain endings.

    Verdict
    This game is great. It's really one of the best games this year so far. However, some poor decisions such as limiting the team to 60 people, have made the game fall short of a 9/10.
    Final Score: 8.6/10.
    The displayed score will be a 9, since I will round up. But I give it an 8.6.

My main issues with the game seem to stem purely from the actual stages in the game itself, not the MAIN aspect which was clearly stated to be the open-zone aspect. The controls in the "cyberspace" stages of the game seem VERY janky and stiff, and although it may make sense from a plot perspective, reusing level design and aesthetics.. Yeah that seriously needs to end. My other main complaint here is the game, in my opinion, has a VERY underwhelming ending which I can't really get into due to spoilers but yeah, more of a personal thing but my friends seem to share that opinion.
    The POSITIVES though, yeah they most definitely outweigh the negatives. Seeing as this is Sonic's first journey into the open-world/open-zone genre I was expecting something pretty horrible to be honest but I'm happy to say here that I was proven wrong and THEN some. It's a concept that really sounds horrible on paper, y'know a buncha floating rails and puzzels everywhere littered around pretty environments but since it's Sonic, taking into account how fast you're moving around it works.. It works really well. Granted I would've preferred these rails and things better integrated with the open-zones aesthetically but I really see this as a good start! Another thing this game delivers on and THEN some is the soundtrack, this time around they seriously blew me away with such a mixed and diverse bag of music. With beautiful calming pieces of music surrounding the open areas with such gorgeous instruments like a tabla of all things, from the boss themes which is ripped straight out of my early 2000's childhood of laying in my room listening to bands like Pierce the Veil (Kellen Quinn actually featuring on almost every main theme providing vocals) and while the Cyberspae was the weakest part of the game for me, Tomoya Ohtani and the rest of the crew at SEGA created some GREAT Electronic/EDM/Dance pieces here that I can even imagine literal dance-clubs playing. I was actually very fond of the story this time around, an aspect to Sonic games I really haven't been crazy about since Sonic and The Black Knight way back in 2009. It's refreshing, the new writer Ian Flynn seriously delivered something impressive with his take on the characters and their dialogue, and to have a story actually hold real weight in the universe again really meant something to me.
    All around, as a first step in making things better with Sonic it's a REALLY great start and I hope they continue to listen to the community with what we like, dislike, and hearing that Sonic Team is expanding marks a seriously promising future for this franchise. A future entirely set in motion by Sonic Frontiers!

    Loving this game. It ain't perfect, but, this is definitely the kind of direction Sonic games should be moving in. The next game in the series should be open world and cyberspace again, but the open world should be based on sonic levels graphics. Not lifelike vistas. It looks and feels a bit weird. Sonic style art all through the game.

It needs Distance View and higher geometry detail on environmental objects to make sceneries more astonishing when discovering new places.

    If "bland Unreal Engine tech demo" is the style Sonic is aiming for in the future, I don't think I'm interested in this series anymore. Remember Speed Highway from Sonic Adventure 1? City Escape from SA2? Crisis City from Sonic '06? Say what you will about that last one, at least there are interesting visual elements going on in that stage. One of the best parts of any Sonic game is seeing the unique and stylized zones and areas Sonic Team crafts. Taking out that soul and replacing it with a safe, bland, generic open world is incredibly disappointing.

However, unfortunately, the game suffers from a lot of technical problems that occasionally interfere with the gameplay, so we are waiting for a patch.

    The most important thing is that Sonic Team has finally chosen the right direction for the development of the series. The game is already incredibly fun to play, so we can only hope that by the next part, all technical and other minor flaws will be cured and Sonic will return to the big league!

Obviously, the pop-in is bad but I rarely found it to be an issue in my play-through. There are some glitches which is to almost be expected from any new game coming out at this point. The only two major complaints I have are about the cyberspace levels controlling terribly and the 2D segments in an open-zone 3D environment that awkwardly transition from 2D to 3D with no way to go back the way you came. The only cyberspace levels I liked were the ones that were entirely 3D, but most of them aren't designed with how sonic controls in this game in mind and instead just byte sized versions of level layouts from the games they came from with only 4 level themes throughout the entire game that are specifically nostalgia pandering which is one of the things I feel like keeps holding every new mainline release back regardless of how much they innovate like they did in this game. Also the final boss could've been better. Expand

By surprise, this game turned out to be a gem that is not only fun but also visually beautiful. Running with Sonic feels very comfortable, I never felt that in another 3D game of the blue hedgehog. The cyberspace phases are fun, the story is the best because it redeems some aspects of the characters that were stuck. The main villain is very interesting and what to say about the soundtrack... a delicatessen.
    The cons of the game go along the line of the limitation imposed by the distance of drawing. It takes away from the illusion a bit when you can perfectly see the circle surrounding Sonic so that the objects on the map can appear. The puzzles are somewhat repetitive with a few exceptions.
    Regardless, the game is an excellent revival of the franchise. After years of stagnation and dark times, the hedgehog has a bright future. I hope Sega continues down this path and polishes up the flaws for the next one.

    Sonic Frontiers is a really fun Game. It makes you feel like Sonic, IGN would say that. The Combat is fun, the Speed is very fast at the end of the game, Story is very good, and Open Zones are alright. The Pop In is a big problem, and some missions on the Open Zones are very borng. But Sonic Frontiers is a great step in the future of Sonics Gameplay!

    Besides the cyberspace level controls being slippery as hell this was everything I've been wanting In a sonic game. Story was taken seriously, music was good (as always) and just felt fun running as sonic. I did feel like after ares island the game started to shift a bit in the quality of the level design but this is a solid foundation sonic team can definitely build upon.

    Alright, let's first start with the graphics. The graphics in this game are amazing, as a game should be in this era, this is definitely better looking than Sonic Unleashed which came out basically 14 years ago. Yes, it could look a bit better but knowing that SEGA had to make this game also run on the Nintendo switch comfortably is probably why.

Yes, it could look a bit better but knowing that SEGA had to make this game also run on the Nintendo switch comfortably is probably why. The Controls in this game in the Open Zone (Open World) handle amazingly, also considering that you have a slider for the open world controls, you can customize it to whatever your liking is, my only gripe is that there's hardly any momentum in this game, and sonic is almost magnetized to the ground in some capacity, but knowing the developers probably had to limit sonics controls because they didn't want speed runners to beat this game faster than they already can. The controls in the Cyberspace stages aren't nearly as good as the controls in Generations or Unleashed, but considering they're supposed to be bite size like special stages, i can somewhat understand, since a lot more time was probably spent creating the open zone world. The characterization in the game is probably at its best, character interactions seem the most real the characters have ever been in a while, most likely how to Iann Flynn wrote them, let's hope he continues to write the stories for the next games. After beating the game there isn't much to do unless you haven't already collected all the memory tokens on every island and caught all the fish, which can in fact, take a while, but still somewhat of a letdown knowing there isn't a post-game content, hopefully they fix this with some dlc. The OST in this game is quite breathtaking, the soundtracks for the islands do make you feel immersed, and lonely in the world you're in, the soundtracks for the boss fights are as hype as they've ever been, truly this soundtrack is a Sonic fans fever dream come true. Overall, for Sonics first outing in this type of genre, sets up a very good foundation for what can come next, and i think SEGA did a great job. Not the best open world game, but again for Sonics first interaction in this type of gameplay style, it did great on all fronts. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game was really good, but nowhere near perfect. I still really love it though.
    I'll talk about my gripes with the game here.

    The open zones were great, but the variety between them wasn't very strong.
    The first island, Kronos, consists of some forests and open plains. The second island, Ares, consists of deserts and canyons. The third island, Chaos, consists of volcanic and tropical scenery, but mostly the former. The last two islands, however, look almost exactly like Kronos Island. Out of the two, Rhea Island, is actually part of the same landmass as Kronos, so I can give it slack there. The last island, Ouranos, is not part of the same landmass, and really the only differentiating feature of Ouranos is its flowery fields.

    The Cyber Space levels were alright. I liked the 3D ones well enough, but most of the 2D ones left a bad taste in my mouth. They weren't bad, but they certainly weren't good either. It's most likely due to Sonic's controls in Cyber Space feeling much different than they feel outside of them. I will also say this, the reused themes in the Cyber Space stages are atrocious. Green Hill, Chemical Plant, Sky Sanctuary, and City Escape. That's it. There are 30 Cyber Space levels, all of which use only those four themes, and even level designs taken right out of Sonic Generations. I don't care if there's a story reason for it, it's just super bland and boring. Honestly, if they used different themes and/or more of them, this wouldn't be as much of a bother for me, but I've seen enough Green Hill in the last 11 years of my life.

    But out of the 20+ hours that I played, only around 10% of that time was spent in the Cyber Space stages. Another 10% was spent fishing (I liked it, it was very relaxing), and then the other 80% was spent running around the islands doing some quirky puzzles, speeding through some little mini challenges, and fighting really cool bosses. It was nice to see how they were still introducing a few new puzzle to do and guardians to fight at the final island, but there are still some buffed up reskins of guardians from previous islands. They were still fun to fight though, and were honestly quite the spectacle. If I had to list my least favourites though, I'd have to say Asura and Tank. The former is one of the first guardians you fight, and probably one of, if not the buggiest in the whole game. The latter is just more annoying to fight than others, so that's just me nitpicking.

    Another standout part of this game was the titan battles, which I loved. Giganto was a really cool first main boss. Wyvern was also cool, but not as cool as Giganto. Knight was amazing, except for the part where you ride on its saw shield. It shoots missiles at you while you're riding it, but you can't see where the missiles are coming from, so you basically just get juggled around as you try to steer the shield back towards the Knight. But aside from that, I think it was still probably my second favourite titan battle in the game because of how cool its design and the rest of its battle was. My least favourite was most definitely the last one, Supreme. Like all the other titans, its design was badass, but I felt that the battle was just a bit anticlimactic, but it's probably because you don't destroy it like you do with the other titans. The real final boss, The End, was literally just Ikaruga. I can't say anything clever about it, it's literally just Ikaruga. The End's monologue during that fight was also genuinely chilling, so props to that.

    The rest of the game was just good, great, awesome, outstanding, amazing.
    There are a couple of road bumps here and there, most of them being the Cyber Space levels, but other than those, this game is really god damn good. There were also a few bugs here and there that, while they didn't do anything harmful, they made me raise an eyebrow a few times.
    If you like Sonic games, play this game. If you don't like Sonic games, I dunno, you can decide.

    It has it's flaws, it's a bit janky at times but this formula is just what Sonic team needed, if they expand upon it then we'll get a 10/10 game soon.

    My only issue with it is how post-game is handled, you can't go back to fight previous bosses which kind of sucks, the replay value is also not that great on the same save, you'll have to start a new one, but you will have fun on that new one.

    Notice Sonic’s voice is deeper. If you don’t like it, think of it this way: Sonic has grown and matured. You can still hear his comical voices here and there, but in this game he says some stuff that makes him sound like a grown adult. Even Tails, Sonic’s long time best friend and partner, faces a change within himself that I won’t spoil, as it serves a potential outcome that Sonic will be going solo from now on for his next adventures (Thats all I’m saying).

    Other than that, you may encounter some bugs but thats simply unavoidable. NOT GAME BREAKING. Go from point A to B the way you are supposed to and don’t try anything freaky that would bug you. The bugs in this game are mostly user initiated, not from the game itself.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sonic Frontiers is a good game and a massive step in the right direction for the Sonic franchise. The actual gameplay is rock solid and will be a great foundation to build upon for future games. The way Sonic moves feels very similar to Sonic Lost World only it is way better as it isn't as stiff, is way faster, and the world gives a lot more room for the player to breathe and get a feel for how Sonic works.

    This is easily the best story since the Black Knight and I am so happy that Sega finally has some writers that love the franchise and respect the history of the characters. That being said, the main story regarding the intentions of the voice in Sonic's head was very predictable. Before the game was even out everyone already pretty knew that the voice was going to be the main villain this time around. Sage is a wonderful character and I really like what the writers tried to do with her. Based on the end credits scene I doubt this was the last we will see of her, which is a very good thing. The only real complaint I have is that there are some plot points that were brought up in the main story that are never given any closure such as, who actually made the chaos emeralds, why the master emerald was on Sonic's world, and where the super emeralds come into play. Maybe some of this is explained in a side story and I just didn't find it but if that is the case then I must say definitely feel like this information is important enough the lore of the entire franchise that it should be included in the main part of the story. Maybe Sega is planning a sequel or some DLC content that serves to explain some of this, which is definitely what it feels like.

    As I said earlier, the way Sonic moves and feels is really good. The fact that this game is using the same engine as Sonic Forces is insane as this game, for the most part, has none of the issues that Forces has. The only time I ever feel like Sonic's movement is bad is in some of the cyber space stages. In the open zone areas Sonic has a lot of movement options, the main one being the boost which is bound to the right trigger by default, which is why it feels a lot more Like Lost World to me. Sonic can also use the drop dash, which is cool I guess but I used it so infrequently that I have to ask why it was even included. The homing attack is on the action button again, just like in Sonic Unleashed, but this time it actually makes sense due to the way combat was handled in this game. I love all of the different moves Sonic can do in this game as It isn't too hard to pull off successful combos and it feels very satisfying. The only issues I had with the open world gameplay was the lack of invincibly frames after getting hit and the fact that every little piece of geometry has collision. The lack of a grace period after taking damage wasn't a huge deal as it keeps you on your toes but the collision was my worst nightmare. I would try boosting across the map to get to a certain location or try to do a cyloop to attack enemies or solve puzzles only to be flung in the air by some random rock sticking half an inch out of the ground. This has messed me up so many times that I wonder why nobody ever tried to smooth it out the terrain a little bit. To compensate, the devs basically made Sonic stick to the ground like he has magnets in his feet which has sent me plunging to my death multiple times during platform segments. The issues weren't bad enough to ruin the experience for me but it has definitely gotten to a point where I don't really find it funny anymore. The only portion of the gameplay that I straight up disliked was the cyber space stages. Mainly because they were so inconsistent. Sometimes I would find a stage that is really fun and well thought out, these are usually the ones ripped from other Sonic games, and sometimes I would find one that is just downright frustrating to play. By the time I made it to the last island I just didn't want to play cyber space stages anymore. That being said, the worst part of cyber space isn't even the level design. The worst part is the fact that this is the 5th mainline Sonic game in a row to use Green Hill Zone. After this, I never want to see Green Hill Zone again. Same thing with Chemical Plant and Sky Sanctuary. If you absolutely HAVE to bring old level themes back at least pick something else like Cyber Track from Sonic Advance 3, a level that would have actually made sense to end up in this game. It feels like the developers ran out of time towards the end as the last two islands are reusing the same theme as the first one which kind of cheapened the experience for me. I hope this is the last game in the franchise to reuse assets in this way.

    Sonic Frontiers is a very good game overall and I definitely think that it is worth the price. I can't wait to see where Sega take Sonic in the future and I can't wait to see what kind of mods come to this game

    Sonic frontiers is the newest sonic game
    as a long time sonic fan i really enjoyed this game as a good path to the future or sonic
    its not perfect the pop in is atrocious at times. and the physics of the world can be kinda weird when sonic is launched from bumping on a rock when going at max speed.
    but there is a lot of fun to be had with a runtime of about 20 hours

    one of the best sonic games of the past decade, sonic is fun to control, the story is interesting and the character interactions are full of life. the cyberspace themes being reused is disappointing, though.

    This game had a lot riding on it, I really wanted it to be good. Thankfully, Sonic Team didn't make a joke for the 100th time, this game is spectacular, this is a step in the right direction for sonic, for the story, gameplay, and especially music. Sonic has a new "boost" mechanic that is in my opinion better than the previous boost games.

    this game was in a sense "sonics last chance",

    this game was in a sense "sonics last chance", with a bigger budget, and a longer development time, it really was more ambitious than previous titles and it had to impress, and thankfully it did. This game felt enjoyable to play, and I was actively enjoying myself while playing it and not just playing a sonic game because it was a sonic game, This is a fantastic game and IMO a perfect step into what sonic can be. Sonic is back baby!

    Sonic's entry into new, for him, gaming paths is overall successful, despite any problems. With a little polish and attention to detail, the next game in the series has the foundations in place to finally look eternal rival Mario in his three-dimensional, bubbly eyes.

    As a 3D Sonic a step in the right direction. The open world has a lot to offer but gets lost in redundancy.
