First Look At Sonic Frontiers Gameplay Revealed

We may not know a lot about Sonic Frontiers other than it's still scheduled to launch at some point this year, but we've been given a little more to go on thanks to a short gameplay trailer shown off earlier today. First revealed by IGN, we got a good look at the "Open Zone" that players will be able to explore in the game, as well as some of the big baddies Sonic will be taking on. While we only got the briefest of brief looks at the gameplay, there will be a more in-depth reveal tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
