The latest videos of Sonic Frontiers that have come to light have generated all kinds of opinions for and against the new adventure of SEGA’s blue hedgehog that aimed to plunge us into a vast open world. However, it will not be as similar as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or other similar titles.
IGN has gone ahead with his special coverage of this new Sonic and that has led him to publish some excerpts from an interview given by Morio Kishimoto, the director of the game, who has declared that the world through which we will move at full speed it is actually an open area
To get a better idea of what he means, platform games usually have their own world map. The difference with them is that this one is completely playable and goes further than other 3D titles, such as Super Mario 64 or Sonic Adventure, since the levels are inside this huge area.

Regarding its difficulty, he has pointed out that other deliveries were about the phases becoming more complicated so that the game lasted longer, but that could interfere with the sensation of speed. On the contrary, Sonic Frontiers It won’t follow the same idea because it will already have a huge amount of content from the beginning, so the team didn’t feel it necessary to increase its difficulty.
In addition to all this, through the so-called Starfall Islands we will find ourselves with challenges and puzzles of all kinds so that players always find new challenges to face. So throughout the 20-30 hours that the main story is expected to last
For the rest, Kishimoto has spoken about the skill tree and the fact that Sonic can level up, something that he recognizes is not usual in this genre, although he has indicated that the speed of our protagonist can be increased even more and even We will have a speedometer on the screen that will show how fast we are moving at all times.
