Sonic Frontier’s Sights, Sounds, And Speed ​​update is due out this week

If you’ve been eagerly awaiting new content for Sonic Frontiers, then you’re in luck.

According to VGC and other sources, Sega has sent out emails to fans announcing that the Sights, Sounds, and Speed ​​update will be making its way into the game this week WednesdayMarch 22 at 5:00 p.m. PDT / 8:00 p.m. EDT.

The update includes “newly added features and modes” at no additional cost. Looking back at the roadmap released late last year, it’s safe to assume that the update will include the juke box feature, a photo mode, and new challenge modes.

Meanwhile, Update 2 (which currently has no release window) will celebrate Sonic’s birthday and will introduce a new open zone challenge along with additional Koco. However, the big update is what everyone is waiting for and promises new playable characters and a new story. Hopefully we’ll get some news on planned release dates in the near future.

In our review for Sonic Frontiers, we called the game a “bold new direction for the series” but stated that the Switch version is “quite comfortably the worst option for fans, with graphical compromises that make it impossible to play.” Recommend it if you “can’t play anywhere else”. However, as with everything, we encourage you to try the free demo on the Switch eShop and see what you think.
