Awoo.
  • New Story Details, Locations, and Release Date in Sonic Frontiers' Gamescom Trailer

    We also get to meet the cute little Koco!

    While not quite headlining the Gamescom Opening Night Live presentation, Sonic was promised and delivered. The game is set to release on November 8 to all major platforms, and while we'll put together a full breakdown of details, features, and speculation later, you can catch the trailer now:

    The new trailer shows off the linear Sonic levels including Green Hill, Sky Sanctuary, and the new twisted road stage, as well as two new bioms of open world, desert and tropical beach. Dialog is light from Sonic himself, but the previously revealed Sage sets an intimidating tone as Sonic is unable to fight her. She sees Sonic as a threat and commands him to leave the islands; however, Sonic encounters a giant sphere holding Amy (and presumably his other friends) captive.

    The trailer also highlights the Koco, cute little stone creatures on the island that are absolutely cuter than Chao in my opinion and absolutely no one else's on staff.

    Frontiers is expected to be available for hands-on play at Gamescom, so be on the look out for impressions soon from your favorite game news sites (including us, hopefully!)

    Well, it's something I guess. I find it interesting that Sonic seems to be entirely serious this time, without even a quick quip or dialogue outside of the "Amy?" line. Please let this be the game to slightly rewrite Sonic to take things more seriously now.

    The gameplay looks...fine. Still just a straight line, but it's boost so that's to be expected. Nice to see a desert world, or sunset GHZ though.

    I like the kocos. They're cute. Would save again.

    At the very least, I'm kind of interested in where this is going so...mission accomplished?

    Reading the DLC description, does mean Amy will be rescued first, then Knuckles, then Tails last?!

    COME ON SEGA, Tails deserves more respect than that!

    Despite my optimism above, I would not say mission accomplished. I know the gameplay is rather final in terms of how it works, but I still think we need to wait and see more of the game. I don't blame you for thinking that, though.

    I'm pleasantly surprised the digital deluxe isn't pulling the early access thing that Colours Ultimate did.

    As somebody who was definitely getting this physically it's good to know I'm not going to have to spend additional days avoiding spoilers.

    Look, I was expecting to feel nothing. The fact I was somewhat interested is an accomplishment.

     

    Yes, I'm low balling here.

    Effects are way better now, music is great too, just a little disappointed we didn't get the main theme.

    I was just saying. It is always good to be careful about things, just in case.

    Not to sound mean even, but I wasn't surprised that you were expecting to feel nothing, which is not so bad.

    Sounds like it's a pretty big game.

    It’s fine I guess. I hate seeing Green Hill so much and the desert environment looks about as drab as I thought it’d be. Story is intriguing but that’s all I can say about it at the moment.

    I don’t DISLIKE what I saw but I really can’t say I’m “hyped”

    Looks good to me, I’m happy. Great birthday present, thanks Sega XD

    If the information in the link is accurately ‘in order’ of Amy, Knux, Tails to be rescued then I’m fine with that. Eggman’s in there somewhere too, right? But so far he isn’t mentioned at all.

    Take your time, man. Even if you don't grow to like it, or at least by that much, it will be fine.

    So guys, are we going to look at, analyze and post details about level design as usual?

    You may be fine with that, but I'm not! Once again Tails gets shafted when he should at least be playable!

    I really hope he isn't just relegated to the opening and ending cutscenes, because, as a Tails fan, that would really piss me off!

    Tried to withhold judgement til more gameplay, story/characters and more environments were introduced, so I did. 

    Ugly, ugly ugly game. LOL So damn ugly. Smeared in motion blur, dull colors everywhere, reused assets, aesthetics somewhere between Black Knight and some anime open world game (which the latter it's definitely trying to be). Bad. Game looking clunky as ever to play does it no favors. Just keep introducing new anime particle effect lights for Sonic to spawn around him as he floats in mid-air, sure. Boring bg music, completely nondescript. 

    Hopefully the story salvages it. Can't see much else being worth the time.
