While 30 games are impressive, the addition of the official debut of Soni Frontiers will please many longtime fans of the character and franchise.
Sonic Frontiers is promised to offer an open-world style of gameplay with players able to direct Sonic as he runs across the landscape at incredible speeds and faces various enemies.
An official release date for Sonic Frontiers has not been revealed, however, it is expected to release sometime this year.
