Knuckles takes a incorrect left flip someplace

The following Sonic sport isn’t too far off, and in the present day Sega launched a video setting the stage for the hedgehog’s new journey. A brand new Sonic Frontiers Prologue video places the highlight on what Knuckles has been as much as.

This prologue, known as Divergence, follows Knuckles as he tends to the Grasp Emerald on his island. We get somewhat lore refresher on his backstory, earlier than seeing him make a brand new discovery on his island.

Some previous tech whirs to life after he tinkers with it, and he winds up in a brand new location. Because it seems, it appears to be like like Knuckles is in a Sonic Frontiers locale.

Whereas Knuckles can actually fend for himself, it appears to be like like he’s not robust sufficient to carry off this antagonist. Looks like Sonic, and by extension the participant, might want to lend a serving to hand.

A brand new frontier

That is certainly one of a number of lead-in tales, meant to set the stage for Sonic Frontiers. It looks like we’re coping with an odd new foe, and which means somewhat extra table-setting than “Eggman’s at it once more.”

Nonetheless, we’re in some way solely every week out from the discharge of the brand new Sonic sport. Revealed at The Recreation Awards in 2021, Frontiers has been the topic of each curiosity and scrutiny.

We’ve seen a good bit of Frontiers already. There are its bigger areas to discover and puzzles to unravel. And there are some extra acquainted designs, akin to older Sonic entries.

Whether or not this new search for Sonic comes collectively, I simply hope Knuckles seems okay. I don’t just like the look of that Matrix bubble jail one bit.

Sonic Frontiers will launch for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Sequence X|S, Swap, and PC on November 8.
