Sonic Frontiers sales numbers far exceed expectations

Sonic the Hedgehog games have been of very mixed quality over the years, and it’s almost safe to say that we’ve had as many bad games as good ones. Fortunately, Sonic Frontiers has shown itself to be a member of the latter, and became wildly popular when it was released last November.

Until now, we didn’t know exactly how it had fared in sales (at least since the last report in December), but during Sega’s latest quarterly report, it was revealed that “the number of units sold for Sonic Frontiers far exceeded our estimate.” original”. This is not only good news for Sega, but also for us gamers, as Sega explains that for the next Sonic title, “they are proceeding with a bigger budget, even from the basic research prototyping phase.”

What do you think of Sonic Frontiers? Is it an open world concept that Sonic Team should explore further?
