In our Sonic Frontiers review, we gave the game 3.5 out of five stars. Reviewer Jake Green praised the game’s excellent controls and better-than-expected writing, but called out some persistent visual issues: “Play through the game, and you will find a smorgasbord that’s full to the brim with Sonic mechanics, both new and old — but also, sadly, with outright technical failings,” he wrote. “In trying to take Sonic in a much-needed new direction, the developers appear to have thrown just about every possible idea at the wall....
