    Great game with ambition and care, a stark departure from previous entries. Looking forward to the future of Sonic.

    I think Sonic Frontiers carries some traits of the Adventure era games whilst also being twisted with a Modern flare, I think it’s one of Sonic’s best games in years!

    This game is just the great return of Sonic and SEGA. The people who criticize this Sonic have even't finished it, and the journalists are liars, they rated the game badly for God of war. There are many flaws but it's a good first open-world for the series. Bravo SEGA and Team Sonic, 10/10 to support you because you are on the right track!

    Un juego simple y llanamente perfecto, tiene un gameplay deslumbrante, una banda sonora muy bien trabajada y bien inmersiva, y lo mejor bajo mí opinión sería la historia, es bueno que Sonic y los otros personajes maduren en este juego, cada personaje se siente importante en la historia, además que la nueva personaje (Sage) es carismática y adorable. Por eso merece firmemente un 10/10

    Sonic team has undoubtedly given it a good go. I have enjoyed my time with this game, I hope sega iterates on this and adds/tightens the mechanics of this game in a sequel or continuation. Also, the soundtrack goes absolutely hard.

    Absolutely loved the game. Though it could use improvement in a lot of major areas, I see what the team was cooking up and with a little more seasoning and a tweak in the ingredients the future is looking extra delicious. Damn i'm lowkey hungry fr fr.

    Sonic Frontiers is an incredible step in the right direction by Sonic team. The game truly shines with it's open world gameplay, the fun of running around as Sonic, using his cool new moves to best up enemies. Speaking of which, the enemies in particular the titans you fight as super Sonic are awesome, the music, the animation and it never feels too hard or unfair.

    Sonic Frontiers is the best Sonic game in the entire franchise! This game in it of itself is a masterpiece regardless of Sonic games! The open world is so fun to explore and you can run freely and platform at full speed and fight enemies, bosses and Titans, it's so fun! You can also combat and fight a lot of unique enemies and bosses, and unlock alot of new combat moves and skills at theSonic Frontiers is the best Sonic game in the entire franchise!

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!
    The 5 years wait was definitely worth it.
    Thank you SEGA and thank you Sonic Team!

    Solid game, lol another fail take from Dunkey, but to be fair, he has never had good taste in games. He likes last of us 2 and hates final fantasy 7 remake, says enough lmao.

    Kind of pathetic to watch these Dunkey fans review bomb this game. Why do some people like his content again? Is it because of his extreme gaming knowledge? Oh wait that can't be it, he doesn't have that. Oh yeah of course, because he does stupid voice when he talks in his reviews and 12 year olds think it's hilarious.

    I played it at my little cousins house and we had a lot of fun. Sonic sure has changed since I was a child. He still has his attitude but he also matured somewhat. A little like me. It was a blast to play with him once again. And now you can explore a lot more ground than you used to can. It reminded me when I explored the Johto region when Pokémon Gold and Silver came out.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This Game is the 2nd Modern Sonic Game I played in my life I just Love It I would say that the End of the Game is disappointing. But everything else is God tier if you compare it to Generation there is a huge difference. But personally the Most satisfying thing in Fronteirs is Maxing your Speed and when you have it maxed you only need to press the boost button to go full speed with out anything Stopping you. Expand

    I watched my BFF play this one, and I'm so into it now. The open World is amazing, and Kocos are now one of my favorites cute creatures of the universo, and the flashbacks gave him the chance to explain to me more about Sonic and the games in general. I encourage everyone to play it :)

    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!
