In een recent interview met GamesRadar sprak de creative officer van Sonic Team Takashi Iizuka over Sonic Frontiers.
SEGA debuteerde vorige maand met een degelijke teaser-trailer tijdens The Game Awards. Maar dat en ondanks dat de game in mei officieel werd onthuld, valt er nog veel over te ontdekken.
Iizuka sprak over Sonic Frontiers
With Sonic Forces, the team set out to develop a collection of high-speed Sonic action games that turned the traditional Sonic plot on its head, set in an universe where the wicked Dr. Eggman had triumphed.” We designed new Sonic locales and characters, such as the enemy Infinite, inside this new tale and planet. With Sonic Frontiers, we’re attempting to create a whole new type of Sonic action adventure. We’re extending the Sonic Universe even again, this time with new locations and features to offer a whole new style of open-zone experience.
Iizuka besprak ook de moeilijkheid om Sonic’s bekende snelheids- en vechtvaardigheden in open zones te integreren:
We concentrated on taking Sonic to the next level and making sure he’s adequately portrayed as the fan-favorite character while also keeping his new form fascinating.
We pay special attention to all the minor Sonic features to ensure that Sonic’s unique speed and qualities stay constant throughout all game iterations,” said the team. We’ll add new fighting tactics in Sonic Frontiers to bring Sonic’s distinctive agility to the battlefield, and the new exploring possibilities clearly play into his famous speed.
Sonic Frontiers wordt uitgebracht op de Nintendo Switch in de vakantie van 2022. Later in het jaar zullen meer details worden vrijgegeven.
