Sonic Frontiers was announced a year ago with a rather vague teaser trailer. Fans would have to wait until months later to see their first glimpse of what the game would truly be like, and the reveal may have been worth the wait. Sonic Frontiers was shown at The Game Awards to be what Sega has been calling the first "open-zone" Sonic game, which takes inspiration from open world games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. However, Sega has yet to reveal proper gameplay for the title.
