[up][up]It could happen right after Sonic does the fourth island.

So wait, what is this, side stories occuring concurrently with the main story or an alternate ending? Is this Sonic Frontiers Aftermath and Shang Tsung's gonna interrupt the main ending by coming out of a portal and warning Sonic he broke THE END's crown or something?

Are explosions science?

It seems like it either takes place after the base story or around the time time Sonic succumbs to cybercorruption (meaning a retcon for the end of island 3's events)

It could happen right after Sonic does the fourth island.

It could, sure, but the simplest conclusion is still that it just happens after the whole story.

There's a Steam post for the new trailer with a synopsis that pretty much confirms that the new story starts before the climax of the base game's story.

So assuming that the Final Horizon isn't just a rewrite of the last part of the game, perhaps its the closest that Sonic Frontiers will get having the return of Last Story.

It seemed pretty clear to me that it's an alternate ending, given the "rewrite" and other dialogue. Time will tell if it will replace or be available alongside the initial ending. Or maybe an ending locked behind a completed save file or New Game Plus.

It seems that the timing of it would be "what if immediately after Rhea Island, everyone actually did pitch in, instead of Ouranos just being Sonic doing it all again?"

I don't know if it was shared here before, but this was a fun promo showing a lot of the fun content released for the franchise in recent years. And that's not even everything, since I don't think it included the movies or the orchestra.

Well, since someone already shared the synopsis, I can reveal the leaks.

Yes, it's a rewrite of the last act. It will change the point where the friends save Sonic from the cyber corruption.

I won't reveal further. It's actually something curious, because when the game came out, I compared that scene with Sonic's death in 06, and how that other game handled it the tone and pace better. To see the friends save Sonic again warms my cold, evil heart.

The Sonic Twitter (never "X", especially since Sonic X is kinda taken) delivers key art for the Final Horizon update.

[up][up]I'm not interested. I'll find out what happens when I play it. Only 16 days away.

[up]When you said that X was taken, my mind jumped to that other website, because of the obligatory jokes since Twitter got the dumbest rebrand ever.

I'm curious to see how they will rewrite the ending of this game. Honestly, I didn't mind how the final boss of the actual game turned out. But, I'm interested to see how they will rewrite the playthrough of the final boss.

[up] Discount Hyper Sonic faces The End alone, and Sage never gets deleted, probably.

[up] I know its a long shot that is very unlikely to happen but I wonder if its possible that the "Super Sonic 2" we saw in the trailer isn't the actual form that will be seen in game. Perhaps it is there to hide the actual design for the new Super Form simply because its very appearance would be a massive spoiler for the entire game. Also here's to hoping that if each character gets their own stage, they'll all have unique dialogue from THE END to flesh out it's character.

Reminds me of Sonic '06 when they all go to collect the Chaos Emeralds and each have different themes for the levels.

Less than 2 weeks away now. I am very hyped for this. I've been debating if I should finish Battle Rush or do Cyberspace Rush before this drops. I haven't started Cyberspace Rush, and I still need to do Ouranos and the gauntlet for Battle Rush (but I've S ranked the others I've done).

With Eggman’s genius, anyone surprised he hasn’t tried the “Senator Armstrong Approach” yet?

Basically, infecting himself with nanomachines to develop reactive armor inside his body and super human strength. Then shocking everyone by fighting Sonic in fisticuffs.

Of course Nanomachines Son gets said.

Eggy just prefers to pilot his machines. He is strong, but rather lazy to fight himself.

Some info from the Murder game.
