We haven’t seen Sonic Frontiers in a hot minute, but it’s looking better with each sliver of footage.
On Tuesday, SEGA released another teaser trailer for Sonic Frontiers. Calling it a trailer might be generous, but goodness gracious does the game look fun. In the footage, Sonic zooms around an immense open world rife with loopy loops and grinding rails. There’s also some light combat, as the blue blur stops to blitz some robot-looking foes at one point. Those Zelda: Breath of the Wild vibes are certainly intact.
Check out the teaser for Sonic Frontiers below. There is no question it’s already the best-looking 3D title in the franchise.

Sega hasn’t released much info on Sonic Frontiers thus far. However, between State of Play and Summer Games Fest, I’d bet we’ll see more soon. Don’t let us down, Mr. Keighley.
Sonic has had quite a year already. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is the highest-grossing video game film ever, and we’re only weeks away from Sonic Origins‘ release. Netflix will launch Sonic Prime sometime later in 2022 as well. His buddy Knuckles is getting a TV series on Paramount too. The franchise hasn’t gotten this much attention since the 1990s. It’s pretty wild.
