The latest entry in the long-running SEGA series takes Sonic into a fully 3D open-world setting with big areas to explore. Taking influence from other large-scale action RPGs, Sonic Frontiers even has combat, skill trees and more to sink your teeth into.

Despite the popularity of the games waning over the years since the series moved into 3D, SEGA has been continuing to churn out games ever since - some proving to be hits and others not hitting the mark. What camp Frontiers falls into is to be decided.
