knuckles is playable but he's super slow and can only throw one punch at a time
have a listen and have a link to my discord serverEvery Island looks like was made for Knuckles...
Because Tails can fly and Amy has no unique vertical based movement abilities.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.
In Shuffle and Advance 1 she could use her hammer to jump very high vertically.
I'm aware of her high jump, but that doesn't really work with the platforming this game wants you to do.

From the look of it, it reminds me of Shantae Half Genie Hero’s additional story where all the side characters are the protagonists of a new (but smaller) arc.
And free!? Shut up and take none of my money, Sega.
Too bad it’s the last thing we get tho. Update 1 all feels like stuff that should’ve been in the game at launch.
My biggest wish is that we'll get a Classic Sonic option as part of the birthday DLC. That's how they did it for Runners and that Roblox tie-in game.
Hyped for what looks like marathon Arcade Mode and maybe a boss rush, too! Other playable characters aren't much of an incentive for me personally, but I'm not *not* looking forward to seeing what they come up with and how it works.
Wouldn't it be dope if the final boss of the Tails / Amy / Knuckles dlc story was Sonic possessed by The End?
Actually...
Huh.
That raises a very interesting question. Given that the basic structure of this game is "collect all the emeralds throughout the open world, go super, fight boss," should the DLC follow the same structure is it possible we might see Super Tails and Knuckles for the first time in ages, and Super Amy for the first time... ever?

That I'm not too sure about...and that's mostly because I can't see them giving all three of the as developed movesets as Sonic's.
That said...how is it that this game lacks a Mirror Boss? Part of the reason I wanted Metal Sonic or Shadow is to get that.

Ah ha! So there is somebody in this thread who I might beat to finishing this game! Ha hah!
Better hurry I'm on Island 2 and playing tonight.
That's kind of every Sonic game when you get down to it. Minus the era where Modern Sonic did everything and only turned Super at the end, and minus Sonic 4.

I've been assuming all three would likely be palette swaps anyway (or more accurately Luigification) - with Knuckles playing just like Sonic but with a glide, Tails playing just like Sonic but with big floaty jumps, and Amy maybe being a bit different because she attacks with that big hammer.
So it wouldn't necessarily be a problem moveset wise if they weren't giving them all entirely unique movesets anyway.

But only male hedgehogs can go super remember?
They've made it clear they're never gonna let Amy be that awesome.
One Strip! One Strip!

Aw man, I was gonna put my WMG on the Sonic Frontiers page but other people beat me to it XD
The Protomen enhanced my life.
