Sonic Frontiers’ marketing has been a rollercoaster
Posted on 2 years ago by Luiz in Features, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Sonic as a franchise is in a curious situation right now. When we look at the hedgehog’s popularity, it is definitely at a high-point thanks to the successful movie sequel that was recently in cinemas. However, when we talk about the actual games, some would argue it’s been a while since we saw a solid release from Sonic Team.

Right now, however, things are getting progressively better, with new footage and information about the game constantly being revealed and giving some hope for us fans.
I discuss this rollercoaster of events in today’s video, sharing my opinions on the matter. Feel free to check it down below.

It seems like a strange marriage at first glance, but after sitting down with one of the game’s producers to see the title in action at a Summer Games Fest media event, I’m at the very least intrigued to see how it will all play out.
