    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sonic Frontiers is a stellar first attempt at course correcting the 3D sonic franchise. It isn't perfect, as its open zone features severe pop in, lack of any way to replay those awesome as **** pure metal boss fights. And the game does sort of lose steam near the end with Rhea island feeling more like
    It was supposed to be there on the ground, and a lack of a third phase for The End's fight, even if that shmup phase was giving me goosebumps. That and Kronos being split up into 3 parts to seem bigger than it is, is telling they must've been on a tight time schedule near release, and I hope that doesn't happen for the next game as sega just needs to let sonic team do their thing and make something as good as what's put on display here.

    But the positives far outweigh the bad for me on my playthrough, as this game's plot has more heart put into it than any of the comedic sonic games of the 2010s had ever been. Sure, some may not look for story in sonic. But for those of us fans that do appreciate a good story for these games, we appreciate it a lot. Ian Flynn writes this game with so much fanservice and callbacks that it feels rewarding to have played these games before coming into this one. And for what new details we get, it's in developing the already existing cast, and the somewhat tragic character of Sage, easily sonic's best antagonist (eventual supporting character) since possibly shadow the hedgehog.

    The open zone gameplay, coupled with ok to fun puzzles to do. And neat (albeit overused in theming) cyberspace stages familiar to adventure, generations and unleashed, make for a fun experience overall as you travel through the starfall islands and bounce off stuff like in the opening cutscene of CD or Unleashed. It definitely seems like a project I could tell they were working on with honest, severe effort to give us something good. Music sounds absolutely incredible but that's no surprise from sonic team, and despite the pop in; the graphics and artstyle still look really appealing and character animation in-game is a massive step up from before.

    By the end. I looked at Frontiers as the game that made my goty, and had reminded me the sonic I grew up with wasn't gone like i thought; just missing all this time as the series catered to a wildly different and weird direction i didnt like. If the game looks intriguing to you, and you haven't played a sonic game in a while; give it a go.    … Expand

    From the controls, to the music, to the combat, to the story, and to the boss fights, Sonic Frontiers is the best sonic game in a long while and is a blast to play through From beginning to end. And while it is Far from perfect, It is a good step forward for the sonic series as a whole, and in my eyes it's a 10/10 for me. No matter what some guy on the internet tries to tell me.

If they ever make a sequel there is still things to improve upon just saying (the skill tree could be bigger, collision could be smoother, less 2d sections, more cyberspace visual themes, cyberspace could have some wall-running parkour like the open-zone, etc).

    You can also upgrade Sonic, you can upgrade his strength, speed, ring capacity and defense!

    The story is the best out of the whole franchise, and the voice acting is very good, Roger Craig Smith did an amazing job as the voice of Sonic!

    The music in this game is incredible and it's the best music in the entire series!

    The Super Sonic fights against the Titans were amazing and some of the best fights in a video game!

    Thank you Takashi Izuka and ESPECIALLY Morio Kishimoto who created this MASTERPEICE!

    This game became my #2 top Sonic game of all time right after Sonic Adventure for the Dreamcast. This game is special and speaks the most to Sonic fans. To the people who reviewed this poorly, well I hope you can have faith in Sonic Team and maybe the next one is for you.

I had quite a bit of fun despite some issues. Namely, the challenge system, in my opinion, should have been either combat based challenges, or atleast harder puzzles. I've seen a lot of people have similar thoughts on it. Another big issue that prevents me from giving this game a higher score is the awful pop in. It is not only immersion breaking, but also makes it more difficult to play due to not knowing where to go to get a memory token due to object just not loading.

    Other more understandable reasons are the combat. This is the first game and all, so understand it won't be the best, but the foundation in this game overall is fantastic including the combat. There is a lot to improve and build on for future titles. Another more nitpick is the lack of post-game content such as a new game+ or a higher difficulty. Otherwise I had a great time and thought it was a worthy purchase. Looking forward to see how this formula can improve in the future. Well done, Sonic Team!    … Expand

    This is such a fun game, it feels fresh and new but still has the throwback references and typical Sonic levels you would expect. We especially loved the portal levels. This is a great throwback game to sit around and pass the controller around for turns to try and beat scores. A single player game that is great for multiplayer. Sonic Team, great job!!

Super fun gameplay, great combat and bosses, the story was great, visuals amazing, cyberspace was surprisingly fun, music was phenomenal, and the titan boss fights were HYPE.

    Sonic Frontiers have the best movement of a 3D Sonic. I felt sometimes that the "momentum" wasn't that good, like, jumping in the middle of the boost can stop all the speed gained. But besides of that, the Drop Dash is quite ignored and it's the best movement of the game. Sonic doesn't look that good in the open zones, but the movement it's well done in every scenario.

    The "Open Zone" in every island is good, but not perfect. The first island is the best made 'cause you can go anywhere you want, learning everything until you're ready to do something in an specefic zone. Yeah, they do something weird to stop you to reach the boss battle, but they hide half of it well. In the other islands... Nope. They use invisible walls to stop you from progressing in the island and it doesn't look good at all. Though, reaching the boss battles keeps being hidden well. Except the fourth boss battle.
    The battle moveset is cool and easy to do. They look so good in Sonic. Some of them are broken, specially the "Sonic Boom." The "Parry" is more like a "Block" 'cause you can hold it all the time you want. That even can make Sonic fly while using it in the air.
    The Cyber Space gameplay is weird, even bad in some levels. Like, the Sonic gameplay in this game wasn't made for most of them. And that's obviously for using past levels from past games. Though, the challenges made them more enjoyable and they're not that necessary to be played 'cause you can obtain kays from defeating enemies. It's tedious, but at least it's an option.
    The enemies are fun to defeat when you can use more movesets than pressing the same button all the time. Some of the Guardians are weird, but they're creative to defeat.
    The soundtrack is nice. They would be more memorable in any other Sonic game, but in this game they're quite forgottable in comparison of the songs used in every boss that are AMAZING. The music and the bosses.
    Talking of the bosses. THEY'RE THE BEST PART OF THE GAME SO FAR. WHY DIDN'T THEY PUT A BOSS RUSH??? They're also the best Super Sonic fights in any other game. Super Sonic is just so well made that I still can't believe it. The gameplay of Super Sonic is like a "God Mode" but with the classic limitations.
    Tbh, I think the worst thing in this game is the pop-in. And the end of this game. Yep. The first three islands are amazing and all, but the last two islands are mid and bad. The fourth boss battle is a copypaste of the first one but worst. The way how the solved the "corruption" thing was boring and The End, literally, is a very bad final boss and a mid ending.
    The story is good, the charactization is very good but their potential is not used at the end. It seems that the potential established in the story, character development and so on was relegated to a promise, the promise that it will be exploited in a future game.
    For this inconsistency, I think that it deserves a 7.5, 'cause even if the end of the game is bad, most of the game was almost the best in any Sonic game.    … Expand

You can definitely tell Ian Flynn actually knows these characters, sonic doesn’t just tell a pun every second and actually feels like himself, same thing with the other characters. While the story could be better it is definitely good. As for the gameplay that also delivers…well mostly. The huge amount of grind rails and bounce pads can be fun they sometimes feel annoying as they’re ALL OVER THE PLACE and can feel overused. The enemies and combat is really fun, sonics skill tree is excellent but feels a bit too easy to get the moves but it’s not too bothersome. The first 2 islands are pretty great, however number 3 has a lot of 2d sections and it feels unneeded, the 4th Island doesn’t even exist it’s just for the story, and the 5th island is just the other half of the 1st but it can still be enjoyable. The titans are all great.. but except for the last it was way too easy and didn’t feel like a final boss. The games soundtrack is superb especially Kellin Quinn’s songs. So should you buy this game? Well if you like what you see, yes!!!… Expand

    It's not perfect, in fact it has some glaring flaws but despite of that it is a very fun 3D Sonic game. The best parts for me is the music the ost is an absolute banger and adds so much to the spectacle of the boss fights.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, this game is fantastic! The main “Open-Zone” majority of the game is immensely enjoyable, even for a franchise that only had small pieces of it hinted in past 3D Sonic games (Adventure, 06, & Unleashed). The Cyberspace levels are basically Forces, but with improved controls and a lot of great platforming in the levels themselves. Boss fights are the best that they’ve ever been before in a Sonic game with incredibly designed combat that takes cues from other melee, hack and slash games—not to mention the heart-pumping music that play as each one’s theme. For example: “CAUSE I AM UNDEFEATABLE!”. There’s references aplenty to both the series’ past and enormous cast of characters that will put a grin on any Sonic fan’s face or person that just enjoys Sonic.… Expand

    This game tries alot of new things for the Sonic franchies and hits it out of the park on most. The story is more grounded, the music as always is excellent, and the gameplay is new and refreshing. However there are some issues with janky controls from time to time but the game flows very smoothly most of the time.

    After a long time, finally a good Sonic game again. It has really laid the foundation on which the Sonic Team will hopefully continue to build on. But unfortunately nothing is perfect, so the game also has some negative points to which I also come right away.

    Contra:

    - The 5 islands thing is **** The 4th one is basically a cutscene island and the 5th one is Kronos 2.0.
    - The Cyberspace levels almost all have reused level designs from old Sonic games and they also only use 4 different themes for the graphics. Would have liked a bit more variety there.
    - The cyberspace physics feel mega weird.
    - The pop ins are really strong in some places.
    - The random objects flying around everywhere look really ugly
    - The small side story cutscenes are really a bit lame - mostly Sonic, the Kocos and one of the 4 characters you can collect memory tokens for just stand around and talk without showing much emotion.
    - The final boss fight was really a bit disappointing. I mean, space shooter, really?

    Pros:

    - The soundtrack is really really good and really a masterpiece.
    - The graphics are really cool. So this game really shows what the Hedgehog Engine 2 is capable of.
    - The main story is really wonderful. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Hope Ian Flynn stays with us as the main story writer.
    - The controls feel really good and it's a lot of fun to just run through the world.
    - There is enough to do in the worlds that it doesn't get boring.
    - A longer game time than what we were used to since 2010. 15-20 hours for new players instead of the usual 2-3 hours.
    - The Super Sonic boss fights were really great, especially their soundtrack.
    - The game will still be updated in 2023 where among other things a new story mode will be delivered.

    All in all, I was very excited about the game. Although I had little expectation and hope, I was completely surprised that the Sonic team seems to still have it.    … Expand

    Great game though with its flaws. Pop ins are my massive issues - along side some cutscenes looking lifeless. Also the final boss is anticlimactic imo. However, the game plays fun, and that is all that matters. The story is captivating and better than anything in recent games. Overall, would give this game a play, but perhaps wait until it’s on sale first.

Incredible gameplay with a variety of different attacks to choose from, stunning visuals and landscapes, awesome soundtrack, good story, and very fun boss fights. My only problem is assets popping in suddenly, but even then that's a pretty minor problem. I've seen people say that the game is reallh buggy, but I didn't encounter a single glitch throughout my playthrough, so that seems to be kind of false.

    Sega has hit the jackpot with this one, and I hope other Sonic games follow in the path that this game has started.    … Expand

    Feels really good. The graphics look pretty good, gameplay is VERY fun, most puzzles are pretty fun too. Just running around in the world is just... fun, but when it get's to the boss battles it's TOP NOTCH.

    The idea and vision of the game is absolutely fabulous. In practice, however, the game is brought down by its execution, which you can see through after a short while and then the game has nothing to surprise you with. [Issue#324]

    There is nothing remotely redeeming about this game. Nothing that even the most die-hard loyal Sonic Fans would or should advocate for. I hope that one day someone who cares enough about this franchise could give us something-anything of substance. A fan can hope, can’t they? A fan can hope.

    Finally, after almost 25years of half measures and mostly mediocre titles, Sonic has finally reached the 3D levels of gameplay it needed to reach. Yes, the pop in is absolutely inexcusable and the ancient gatekeeping grindy methods damage the flow of the game for no reason, but a wonderfully built base exists here, with a highly entertaining adventure in wonderfully melancholic world and a surprisingly well founded story, thankfully clean of Sonic’s annoying 3rd tier friends!
