Indeed, time is running out and some games that are expected for this second part of the year are missing subscribers, like the next game Sonic in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild sauce. Would there be any changes of plan on the side of SEGA, which is slow to tell us more, or should we take our troubles patiently until the summer conferences to be reassured about the release date? The editor puts us on the fast lane of the questions highway!

Lots of promises… and lots of expectation!
A postponement as for the sequel to Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

Lots of promises… and lots of expectation!

During the last months of the year 2021, the Japanese publisher SEGA seemed to determine the future of its iconic mascot: 2022 would indeed mark the return with fanfare of the swift blue hedgehog! To make the fans all the more impatient, the company had made the choice to mark with great fanfare The Game Awards 2021 ceremonyheaded by the spirited Geoff Keighley, doing a double blow: on the one hand, the dissemination of a unreleased trailer dedicated to the second part of Sony’s adventures on the big screen and, on the other, the revelation of the first big trailer from Sonic Frontiershis over-excited re-reading of open-world codes.

Won over by these images, all that remained was to wait for further information from SEGA to be totally convinced. Except that the months have passed since this evening event, and we are still waiting to have concrete and unpublished data on the next great adventure of Sonic. Certainly the teams behind the game and SEGA have clarified their ambitionswhile hallway noises on a potential release date have spread on the web, but this silence is not reassuring. That, Nintendo’s eternal rival understood it well and therefore rushed to give news as summer approached!

A postponement as for the sequel to Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

Will SEGA’s mascot have to settle for from a single box, namely the one made in dark rooms in 2022? It would seem not, according to SEGA who rushed to defuse the fears of many players. Thanks to the transcriptions of our colleagues from Nintendo Lifereassuring new information on Sonic Frontiers have reached us. To make things clear, it was the social media manager of the American branch of the Japanese publisher, Katie Chrzanowski, who spoke during a livestream dedicated to the Sonic Official show.

I see a lot of people asking about Sonic Frontiers, and if we don’t hear any Frontiers news today, don’t worry, it’s coming soon. It’s still slated to release at the end of the year, so we’ll have some news for you this year, don’t worry.

A clear, crisp and precise speech which has the merit of confirming that the next production featuring the famous blue hedgehog is on track to be released in 2022, as planned. Moreover, following statements by Katie Chrzanowski, all eyes are on the summer conference period and Sonic could well do business with Geoff Keighley again during the Summer Game Fest with a trailer even more impactful than that of the Game Awards. So, still a little patience but, like the hedgehog, the answers come quickly!
