Sonic Frontiers will be coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One. The only downsides are the 60fps lock and the awful draw distance. Sega announced the name of its next mainline 3D Sonic game at the game awards on Thursday.

The game can run smoothly on a wide range of PC configurations, does not suffer from any stuttering issues, and has wonderful K&M controls. Let’s at least hope that modders will be able to somehow save the day with a Draw Distance/LOD Mod.Īll in all, we were pleasantly surprised by the PC version of Sonic Frontiers. Seriously, the amount of pop-ins is so extreme that it can literally destroy your entire gaming experience.

SEGA obviously used the PS5/Xbox Series X LOD settings but since the game isn’t that GPU-demanding on PC, we’d love to see an Extra/Epic/Ultra setting for draw distance. Even on Max Settings, there are MAJOR pop-in issues happening right in front of view. Unfortunately, the only issue that currently plagues Sonic Frontiers is its awful draw distance. Classic Sonic Renders 42 deviations Sonic. The game offers raw input for the mouse, displays proper on-screen K&M icons, and works wonderfully with the K&M. Lo que Sonic Frontiers puede aprender de Sonic Generations y su homenaje a la tortuosa historia de la serie. What’s also surprising here is the PC mouse and keyboard controls. And as for 4K/Max Settings, the NVIDIA RTX2080Ti, RTX 3080, RTX 4090 and AMD Radeon RX 6900XT were able to offer a 60fps experience. The rest of the GPUs we tested had no problem running the game with 60fps.Īt 1440p/Max Settings, all of our top six GPUs were able to provide a smooth gaming experience. At 1080p/Max Settings, our AMD Radeon RX580 was able to push a minimum of 50fps and an average of 54fps. Sonic Frontiers does not also require a high-end GPU. After all, the previous Sonic game on PC, Sonic Colors Ultimate, had noticeable stuttering issues. To be honest, I was seriously impressed by how smoothly the game felt. Not only that, but the game does not have any shader compilation stutters.

And, even without Hyper Threading, our simulated dual-core system was able to run the game with 60fps. In order to find out how the game scales on multiple CPU threads, we simulated a dual-core, a quad-core and a hexa-core CPU. Therefore, for both our CPU and GPU benchmarks, we used the first open area. Sonic Frontiers does not feature any built-in benchmark tool. However, we suggest waiting for an “ easier-to-implement” FPS Unlock Mod. And although the game only supports 60fps and 30fps, there is a way to unlock the framerate via CheatEngine. There are also options for Ambient Occlusion, Local Reflections, and a Rendering Scale slider. PC gamers can adjust the quality of graphics, shadows, anti-aliasing, bloom and volumetric lighting. SEGA has added a few graphics settings to tweak.

We also used Windows 10 64-bit, the GeForce 526.86 and the Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition 22.10.3 drivers. The game was developed by Sonic Team, and was published by Sega for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Powered by the Hedgehog 2 Engine, it’s time now to benchmark it and see how it performs on the PC platform.įor this PC Performance Analysis, we used an Intel i9 9900K with 16GB of DDR4 at 3800Mhz, AMD’s Radeon RX580, RX Vega 64, RX 6900XT, NVIDIA’s GTX980Ti, RTX 2080Ti, RTX 3080 and RTX 4090. Sonic Frontiers (, Sonikku Furontia) is a video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series that was released on 8 November 2022 in celebration of the franchise's 30th anniversary. It has its flaws, and there's definite room for improvement, but the spiky mascot is finally moving in the right direction.SEGA has released its latest 3D Sonic game, Sonic Frontiers, on PC. Sonic Adventure set the template for the last 24 years of 3D Sonic games, and I'm hopeful Frontiers will do the same for the next generation. I'm fully on board with this new direction, though. There are frustrations that arise and break the flow, whether it's a middling mini-boss or a struggle with Sonic's floaty movement, and it's a big departure from what Sonic fans are used to. It's easy to fall into a zen-like flow as you traverse each island, rattling off objectives as you happen upon them. The music is calming and also solemn at times-even if it knows when to burst into life with a punk rock energy-and there's even a fishing minigame that lets you earn rewards while slowing down the pace a step further. Running around at the speed of sound might be a mantra of the fleet-footed hedgehog, but Sonic Frontiers is at its best when you're given time to simply explore.
