As announced earlier this week, the month of June will be marked by the arrival of new information about Sonic Frontiersthe next game featuring the blue hedgehog from SEGA. Well, the revelation of gameplay in the program IGN First wasn’t really convincing, but there was still one element missing from this overview, combat phases facing the strange entities populating the open world that we will be given to explore. This is precisely the subject of the video of the dayso let’s see what happens.
Good, if the previous video didn’t convince you, it’s probably not these 6 minutes that will tip the scales on the right side. First of all, we have the right to a confrontation against an upstream of balls in which sonic kick to burst them like balloons, but beware of electrocution, taking damage obviously causing you to lose rings, this is one of the bases of the license. The operation is repeated multiple times, with a strange aerial dash animation hitting the creature, until it is destroyed. Any defeated enemy releases a kind of currency with an unknown utility at the moment.
Another bizarre monster is formed from a shell that you have to make jump in the air by surrounding the target with the strange power possessed by sonic in this game, so he can land a volley of sonic kicks, but be careful, because this protection is also used to attack. The third type of enemy is more lively and mobile, but disappears much more easily with big kicks or punches, in addition to appearing in groups.
Finally, it is what resembles a boss that our hero faces, a gigantic colossus that we would believe straight out of Xenobladewhose weak point is at the level of the “horns” at its top, to which sonic can access when the monster lowers one of its “arms” to the ground. Another way to hurt him is to wrap one of his “feet” around so he can pick it up and kick. And obviously, the difficulty thickens with three distinct phases.
These few minutes seem a bit laborious, with always this lack of speed and a certain inaccuracy that emerges on the screen. Sonic Frontiers is a priori still expected this year on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch and PC. Sonic Colors is he sold from €36.51 on Amazon.
