But more often than not, you're unable to pinpoint your location purely by your surroundings, which lends zones a slightly soulless character. When they do toss you over to a fellow connective piece, it's an immediate dopamine rush brought about by sensations of speed coupled with smoothness that can't be emulated anywhere other than a Sonic game. Rails and platforming bits rarely work in tandem and are often independent catapults that'll fling you any which way. There is a caveat to the game's bittyness, though, as it sees you go fast in all manner of directions, to the point where it's totally direction less. I'm serious! You will be hard pressed to find a better virtual space in which to scurry across all sorts of disconnected bits. And there's a real joy in zipping between them all and hearing the ding ding ding of coins ring out as you pocket whatever token gains you access to the nearest Portal. Levelling Sonic is incremental and uninspired, unfortunately.ĭotted around lush greenland and Death Stranding-esque mountainsides, you'll find plentiful rails on which to slide that lead to bounce pads and swingy sections. As the map's fog dissipates, more icons pop up in its place, drawing you to lots of bitty activities that result in one of many collectibles. The game's open zones are vast and first obscured with a fog of war, which you're able to uncover gradually by exploring and ticking off simple – and sometimes weirdly conceptual - activities like: reach the glowing pad over yonder before the timer runs out, or draw a magical loop around several glowing spheres. Like many other platformers, it's very much a collectathon, only this time home to Sonic's signature scaffolds that accommodate a great variety of sometimes janky, sometimes confusing, but often thrilling offshoots. Your job as Usain Hog is to scoop up lots of tokens and skill shards and gears to reach The Big Bad of said zones and whizz them into the nether. Eggman and save the world, Sonic must navigate "open zones" as opposed to an open world, so it's far more like Mario Odyssey than it is Breath Of The Wild. So anyway, it's your job as Sonic to like, free your pals and help these rock people and stop Dr. There are also these smiley rock things called Kocos that seem to be remnants of an ancient civilisation that underwent some form of apocalyptic collapse. Eggman gets sucked into this portal which traps him in Cyberspace (some AI-controlled realm), while Sonic and his pals also suffer the same fate (to some extent). The game's story opens with a bang as Dr. Watch on YouTube Liam and I chat Sonic Frontiers' thrills and spills. To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
