Sega's move to an open world more akin to Breath of the Wild has so far need negatively received, so here is hoping that Sonic's gameplay showcase on August 23rd finds better footing. Sonic Frontiers Twitter announcementAnnounced by Opening Night Live Host Geoff Keighly, we now know that during the event there will be a World Premiere appearance from Sonic Frontiers. Taking place on August 23rd at 8pm CEST / 2pm ET / 11am PT, Keighley has promised a "new look and news" at the event. The image in the teaser trailer seems to be the key art, which might hint that the final stage of marketing is about to run amok. The last time Sonic Frontiers was let out to play in gameplay footage, things didn't go so well for the blue blur. So, let's hope for better here despite the Big the Cat inclusion. The showcase is set to have over 30 games present, and the host has been teasing that new games will be there; including one from the Subnautica developers. The show, by the way, is shaping up to be two hours long so get your snacks sorted in advance.
