Tomorrow’s Launch:Preorder Sonic Frontiers At A Discount

Sonic Frontiers will offer a fresh spin on 3D Sonic platforming in just a couple of weeks. If you’re looking forward to the Blue Blur’s upcoming outing, you can save on your preorder through Fanatical right now. Fanatical is offering a $7 discount on PC preorders. Alternatively, you can snag the Deluxe edition for about $8.50 off. You’ll also get a voucher for 5% off your next purchase along with the Adventurer’s Treasure Box preorder bonus. For those who want a console version, Best Buy is giving away a free steelbook with preorders.

The deal is only valid for the PC version of Sonic Frontiers, which is offered as a Steam key. If you’re itching for some Sonic action today, you’ll also find Sonic Mania, Sonic the Hedgehog 4, Sonic Origins, and more on sale.

Sonic Frontiers marks a new era for the franchise. You’ll get to explore five gigantic worlds, tackle dozens of deadly enemies with a fresh combat system, and unravel a mysterious narrative that’s still tightly under wraps. It’s not all about speed and combat, however, as you’ll get to enjoy some platforming puzzles or go fishing when you need a break from the action.

It earned a 7/10 in our Sonic Frontiers review. “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,” critic Richard Wakeling wrote. “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. It’s easy to fall into a zen-like flow as you traverse each island, rattling off objectives as you happen upon them.”
