SEGA plans to continue releasing Sonic games as 2D side scrollers in the future.
Since its release on November 8, 2022, Sonic Frontiers has sold 2.9 million copies. In the brand’s latest offshoot, the blue hedgehog dashes through a three-dimensional game world.
Does success mean the end of 2D adventures like Sonic 4?
A similar question was asked by Morio Kishimoto, the game director of Sonic Frontiers. Kishimoto tweeted that fans can look forward to side-scrolling Sonic games in addition to 3D games.
