![]() In this segment, Sonic’s basic repertoire was introduced, with handy areas being marked out for practice. The tutorial area was a zone of mostly green hillocks and a number of typical tutorial encounters. Following a typically cryptic introductory cutscene that hinted at some larger story regarding Sonic being transported into another world away from Tails and Amy by some creature or other, we’re plonked right into the red-and-white shoes of the Blue Blur himself. The demo section that was available felt like a clearly demarcated tutorial area, with three distinct gameplay elements. I had very low expectations of Sonic Frontiers.Īfter getting hands-on with Sonic Frontiers at PAX Australia for preview, I might have changed my mind. With the transition to three dimensions, Sonic lost his identity and has spent almost every game since the 16-bit era in a morass of mediocrity - at best. While Sega’s mascot’s earliest appearances are classics, his sophomore season floundered. We will update this guide when more characters and details are revealed in the run-up to Sonic Frontiers’ release this holiday season.I had low expectations of Sonic Frontiers. ![]() If he’s the focus of the prologue, it’s safe to assume that he will have some role to play in Sonic Frontiers’ narrative. All we know about the short is that it will serve as a prologue, with the teaser showing Knuckles on his home of Angel Island guarding the Master Emerald. Knuckles Image via Sega YouTubeĪdmittedly, Knuckles has yet to be confirmed for Sonic Frontiers, but it looks like he will be the star of an animated short made to promote the game’s release. How she’s speaking with Sonic and what assistance she’ll bring is unknown at this point. That voice was previously revealed to be Amy during an interview. The IGN preview confirmed that Sonic will have an AI companion on his adventure, something that the announcement trailer alluded to with a disembodied voice aiding Sonic. We can’t imagine she’ll sit around waiting for Sonic to come and find her in fact, she may have more of an active role than even Tails. Amy RoseĪmy was with Sonic and Tails when they fell through a wormhole to the Starfall Islands, meaning she’s stranded somewhere too. No doubt the story will involve Sonic trying to find his missing friend. However, it doesn’t sound like he’ll be helping Sonic out this time as the game begins with the two being separated upon arriving on the Starfall Islands. Tails was always a safe bet to appear in Sonic Frontiers, but he was officially confirmed via an IGN hands-on preview for the game. ![]() Sonic’s two-tailed best friend is rarely far behind the Blue Blur.

Pre-release info says that Eggman has uncovered ancient technology in the Starfall Islands (the new setting), so it’s likely his fault why those robots are roaming all over the place in the gameplay seen so far. ![]() He hasn’t been shown in any of the trailers yet, but Sonic’s arch-nemesis is set to return as Sonic Frontiers’ primary villain, presumably. To that end, we’ve put together a list of every character confirmed to feature in Sonic Frontiers, besides Sonic himself obviously, as well as their role in the story. No matter the game, you can always count on at least a few of Sonic’s friends (and enemies) to make an appearance, and Sonic Frontiers looks to be no different. Even if we stick to the games, the cast of the Sonic the Hedgehog series is vast.
