Sonic Frontiers World Premiere Occurring at Gamescom Late August 2022; New Key Art Revealed

Geoff Keighley has announced that Sonic Frontiers will be receiving a new world premiere later this month, August 23, 2022, at 8 PM CEST/2 PM ET/ 11 AM PT, at Gamescom.

Details on what to expect were not stated, but here’s hoping the premiere is primarily focused on either Cyberspace or the story. The former has barely received much footage, and the latter has been discussed plenty in interviews but rarely shown in promotional material. Regardless, we’ll simply have to wait and see what unfolds.

This Sonic Frontiers footage will be part of a grander event in Germany stated to last around 2 hours, with over 30 games on stage.

We’ll keep you all updated with any significant announcements pertaining to Sonic Frontiers and other games. Intrigued viewers can purchase tickets now.
