Sonic Frontiers DLC 1 – ‘Sights, Sounds & Speed’ – Coming March 23

The first free content update for Sonic Frontiers will arrive on Thursday March 23, according to a reveal made via SEGA’s official Sonic the Hedgehog newsletter bulletin.

Originally announced in December to promote a slate of upcoming content for 2023, the “Sights, Sounds and Speed” update will include some bonus quality-of-life features for players dashing around the Starfall Islands – including a Jukebox feature, Photo Mode and some additional challenges.

Later in the year, Sonic Frontiers players will be able to enjoy even beefier updates, including a birthday celebration and additional Story chapters involving new playable characters.

Iizuka Confirms Second Wave of Sonic Content in 2023, Beyond Frontiers DLC

Every year, Famitsu published brief interviews with various video game developers on their hopes and plans for the coming year. This year, Sonic Team’s Takashi Iizuka was among the 141 devs interviewed, who hinted at what would be in store for Sonic in 2023:

“This past year was the biggest year in Sonic history, including the release of the movie sequel, new titles Sonic Origins and Sonic Frontiers, and the Netflix animation Sonic Prime. We are preparing a second wave to keep the fans happy and maintain that momentum going into 2023. We already announced additional content for Sonic Frontiers, but there is a lot more outside of that, so please look forward to it.”

So it sounds like there is a lot of unannounced Sonic stuff planned for 2023! We already know about a mobile Sonic game currently in development over at SEGA Hardlight. If anything else is coming this year, we’ll know soon enough.
