The big update, however, is the one everybody is waiting for, promising new playable characters and a new story. Hopefully, we&#8217;ll get some news on planned release dates in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>In our review for Sonic Frontiers, we called the game a &#8220;brave new direction for the series&#8221;, but stated that the Switch version is &#8220;quite comfortably the worst option available to fans, with graphical compromises that make it impossible to recommend if you&#8217;re able to play it anywhere else at all&#8221;. As with anything, though, we recommend you try out the free demo on the Switch eShop and see what you think.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/sonic\/related-articles:140513 @ 2023-03-21T01:23:34+00:00 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p class=\"disclaimer\">Please note that some external links on this page are affiliate links, which means if you click them and make a purchase we may receive a small percentage of the sale.
