While far from perfect, Sonic Frontiers is arguably the best blue hedgehog video game in years. Its director, Morio Kishimoto, confirmed that he is already working on the next title in the franchise. Pending more details, it seems that SEGA listened to the feedback from the community.
In a recent Q&A with the community on Twitter, director Morio Kishimoto talked about his plans for the future. He says that one of the goals with this “next generation” of games in the franchise is to add more playable characters. In addition, both he and his team are already exploring the features they will include or remove based on feedback from players.

This could be the future of Sonic The Hedgehog
In this way, everything indicates that the open world elements present in Sonic Frontiers will return. Of course, the developers will avoid repeating classic levels such as Green Hill Zone and Chemical Plant Zone, something that fans requested. They also plan to expand the combat and make the battles deeper.
Morio Kishimoto acknowledges that the last game’s story “wasn’t handled in the best possible way.” In order to provide a superior storytelling experience in upcoming projects, he says they will pay more attention to the script and focus on going deeper into the characters.

With this on the table, the creative assures that the main focus at the moment is to provide a good experience for a player, but ensures that they do not rule out launching multiplayer games in the future. Finally, he acknowledges that he won’t be directing all of the upcoming IP titles.
It is a mystery when we will know more details about the new Sonic The Hedgehog project. However, it is not surprising that SEGA tries to replicate the success and good reception of Sonic Frontiers. Takashi Iizuka, head of Sonic Team, has already stated that the latest game of the fastest hedgehog in the universe will be the basis for future titles.
