After all the mumbo jumbo in the meta era, Sonic The Hedgehog has finally got a brand new breath of fresh air upon landing in the Starfall Islands! I say that because the gameplay is a standout from all the boost to win games that has gotten old quickly.
The story is well done, being written by Ian Flynn from the Sonic comics, the new combat move set is satisfying to pull off, and the open zone gameplay gives you freedom to go fast without much hindrance.
I especially love that this game is Super Sonic at his best, considering it's the 30th Anniversary of his debut in Sonic The Hedgehog 2. Those boss fights are lit!
There are flaws like some bugs that got passed security, the final boss is significantly different to the point it confused me, and the opportunity for a new form for Sonic is missed.
Despite these aforementioned nitpicks, Sonic Frontiers is still a must-have for those fans who want a new experience after all the boost games that came and gone.
