The story teaser trailer for Sonic Frontiers: The Final Horizon depicts Sage assembling Sonic and friends before the climactic final boss. It invites you to uncover “the Ultimate Truth” as you fight against the continued cyber corruption. A new Steam blog post reveals more information:
Before the final battle on Ouranos Island, Sage reconsiders an unlikely scenario amongst her millions of simulations. With the assistance of Sage and Dr. Eggman, Sonic sets this new plan into motion and accepts the challenge of converting the Cyber Corruption into a vast, previously untapped power source. Meanwhile, Amy, Knuckles, and Tails seek to do their part and begin searching for the Chaos Emeralds on Sonic’s behalf. Can their courage change their fate…?

SEGA released Sonic Frontiers last year to mostly positive reviews. However, the game was criticized for its lack of polish and rushed final act. In response, the Sonic Team has focused on improving the game since its launch.
The Final Horizon will address many of fans’ complaints about the game’s conclusion. The addition of new playable characters is something that has been highly requested as well. Despite the amount of content being added to the game, SEGA is not charging anything for these updates.
Sonic Frontiers is now available on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. The free update will be available for all consoles on September 28. In addition to this update, the new 2D Sonic experience, Sonic Superstars, will launch a month later on October 17.
