While the idea of an open-world Sonic game seemed a bit outlandish at first, the game ended up being a hit amongst fans and sold quite well, picking up more players over time through a series of free DLC updates. Now, it is claimed that Sega is cooking up a sequel.
According to both DanielRPK and MbKKssTBhz5, two twitter leakers with decent track records, a Sonic Frontiers successor.
The new game will continue the open-world + linear-level direction of Sonic Frontiers, but may not strictly be called ‘Sonic Frontiers 2', so we may see a different name eventually. It is noted that Sonic Frontiers was initially planned to be titled Sonic Rangers, until a last-minute change prior to its public unveiling.
Sonic Frontiers released in December 2022 and received a year of post-launch support. With that in mind, it is likely still early days for the next game.
