Less than a week before its release on November 8, 2022 (Tuesday ), the long-awaited and completely new " Sonic Frontier " in the "Sonic the Hedgehog" series will be released.
In addition to the original TV commercials, the " Fischer's-Fishers " collaboration commercials have recently started airing, so you can't help but be aware of the fact that the game is about to be released. I can't wait to play it!
Sonic Frontier" features an open world for the first time in the series , and for the first time in the series, skill trees are used to enhance the game, so there are many new things even for those who have played the "Sonic" series before.
For those who are playing "Sonic" for the first time in this title, it will also be a "first time" for many familiar characters.
If you read the special comic " Prologue: Convergence," which is available on the official "Sonic Frontier" website, you will be able to enjoy "Sonic Frontier" more smoothly! The characters and information about the battles in this game have been revealed!
Conversation with your friends with memory items!
In "Sonic Frontier," not only the main character "Sonic," but also familiar friends such as "Emmy," "Tails," and "Knuckles" will appear. Of course, they will also appear in the game.
The visuals and settings of "Tails" and "Knuckles" have now been revealed!
Miles "Tails" Pauer
A genius mechamaniac who is in awe of Sonic.
When something goes wrong with the Tornado he is piloting, he and Sonic are swept up into cyberspace and disappear.
Knuckles the Echidna
He is a hot-blooded man who boasts of his power and is a good rival of Sonic.
He is the last of the remaining Echidunas and is supposed to be guarding the "Master Emerald", a huge jewel on Angel Island. ......
Emmy, Tails, and Knuckles have been trapped in the cyberspace that exists in the Starfall Islands, the setting of the game, and have become " cybernetic bodies ".
The " memory items " that allow the player to tune in to the real world and the cyberspace are collected during the adventure, and when the player visits his friends, he or she is able to have conversations with them.
The only way to find out what kind of conversations will take place and how they will affect the progress of the story is to collect "memory items" and actually talk with them.
The first appearance of the skill tree! High-Speed Battle System!
The enemies in Starfall Islands, the setting of Sonic Frontier, are more durable than those in previous games in the series.
Therefore, it is important to not only push the enemy, but also to counter their attacks by parrying, breaking their guard, etc., and to take advantage of their attacks in order to inflict more damage.
Sonic can sense the "signs" of an enemy's attack, so counterattack by evading or parrying.
The starting point for this is the " homing attack.
This is Sonic's basic move, which automatically homing attacks when the target cursor is displayed, and combos are triggered by inputting "Homing Attack".
The " skill tree," which appears for the first time in the series, is a set of skills that can be connected from the "homing attack.
Skill trees are unlocked by collecting " skill pieces," which are obtained by winning battles and adventuring around the island.
As you learn more and more skills, your combos will be enhanced, and battles will become more fun.
Some of the skills that can be learned are "auto combos," which allow players to automatically perform a variety of attack combos with the touch of a button, so even those who are not good at action can enjoy exhilarating battles.
Many of these skills have already been released and can be seen in videos and other media, but this article introduces some of them!
The skills with what kind of effects are explained once again, so be sure to study them carefully!
Psy-loop
It moves while leaving a band of light to create an enclosure, which activates various effects.
It can be used to break down an enemy's guard, launch them into the air for an additional attack, and many other uses.
Phantom Rush
Sonic's combo meter accumulates as he attacks enemies in succession, and when the combo meter reaches its maximum, Phantom Rush is activated!
Until the meter is empty, the attack becomes more powerful.
Sonic Boom
A high-speed kick releases a shockwave, inflicting heavy damage on the enemy in a short period of time.
Thunder Rush
A dynamic attack technique that moves in a zigzag trajectory through the air and then rushes at the enemy.
It is a speedy and stylish skill to hit enemies hard while avoiding attacks.
The third island "Chaos Island" is now open to the public!
Starfall Islands" is an "archipelago" and consists of several islands.
The third island "Cha os Island" is now open to the public!
Chaos Island" is an island in the sea of clouds, composed of a volcano and several islands, where a laboratory that collects the technology of the ancients is located.
I know it sounds like this, but I think that places with volcanoes are usually very challenging. I am looking forward to the adventure!
Powerful and unique "guardian gods
The Starfall Islands, where unidentified " god soldiers " roam the land.
Sonic" will battle against them, but there are also "Guardian Gods " that are more powerful than the "God Soldiers". They are like bosses.
Defeat the "Guardian Gods" to obtain the "Portal Gear," an important item for opening the "Portal" that leads to the cyberspace, and challenge them with new actions and learned skills of Sonic!
STRIDER
A base-control type weapon.
Use the surrounding ring-like fixtures and grind to get close to the energy core in the center to attack.
EXCAVATOR
An improved upper model of tower.
Although the difficulty of the attack is higher, the basic idea is to destroy the torso with a psy-loop.
In fact, there are some strategies that can kill it instantly?
EAGLE
High-precision lasers are fired from the air.
Use parry to bounce the lasers back and aim for the skies!
Take a break once in a while. Fishing in the "Fishing grounds".
Somewhere in the Starfall Islands, there is a " fishing spot " where you can relax and enjoy fishing.
Borrow a fishing rod from " Big the Cat " and fish for a variety of fish, or even catch an unexpected rare item.
You can collect " tokens " by fishing and exchange them for valuable items such as "skill pieces," "portal gear," and "emerald keys. So, let's become a daikongbang to take a break from adventuring and to take advantage of the adventure at the same time!
Knuckles is the star of the show! Pre-Sequel Anime Release!
