For he’s a jolly good hedgehog
Segahas announcedthatSonic Frontiersis getting a buffet of new features in celebration of Sonic’s 32nd Birthday. Not a big buffet, but it does feature New Game Plus, which I’m surprised it took this long to be added.
On top of New Game Plus,Sonic Frontiersis getting some goofy cosmetics, a special collectible Koco, new moves, and some new challenges. That’s all pretty groovy, but I don’t know what else to really say about them.
New Game Plus, I can certainly understand the value of. Sonic builds up his skills throughout the game. This will allow you to start over with all of those intact and just completely wreck house with a combination of too much power and experience. Both your skill tree and power-ups will carry over.
I should probably goback and finishSonic Frontiers. I played it pre-release and fell off at maybe the 10-hour mark. I was covering it for guides, andeverythingin that game has its own dedicated tutorial. I also feel like, while I likeSonic the Hedgehoggames (some of them), I have to be in a very specific mood to play them, and I’m kind of feeling that right now.
The Birthday Bash update is completely free to anyone who ownsSonic Frontiers, and is dropping today at 5:00 pm PST. If you don’t, it’s available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC.
