Sonic Frontiers has been releasing new free updates throughout 2023 to give players a reason to revisit the title. The last update called The Final Horizon is here and it allows you to play as Tails, Amy, and Knuckles along with a new story ending. The “true” ending of Sonic Frontiers by allowing Sonic’s friends to get in on the action. Many fans are divisive on the update as it’s experimenting with not just new characters but new challenges and obstacles. Is the free update worth playing? Well, I have a lot to say.

The story starts with Sage outlining another scenario to defeat the Titans. It all takes place right after Tails, Amy, and Knuckles sacrificed their physical forms to save Sonic from the cyber corruption. Sage can bring Sonic’s friends back as she’s able to stabilize his cyber corruption. Super convenient that Sage can do this now. Anyhow, Sonic and friends will have to track down the Chaos Emeralds again while completing trials and challenges from the Kocos.
