In addition, she touched on the status of Persona 1 and 2 remakes and the upcoming Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi reboots.
Sonic Frontiers Sequel in the Works
According to Midori, a sequel to Sonic Frontiers in gameplay style is in development at SEGA. The game’s official title is not official, so rumors will likely refer to the title as “Sonic Frontiers 2.” Midori notes that the game’s title might change before it is officially announced, just as Sonic Frontiers was once referred to as “Rangers” before release.
The title is a sequel to Frontiers in gameplay style.
But the name might change. Frontiers was Rangers until it was announced.
