Sonic Adventure 3?

This draft should be deleted, as Sonic Adventure 3 is most likely the upcoming game in question. No other Sonic games are currently known to be in development. Homechallenge55 (talk) 20:42, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

I think it’s pretty obvious that page is a hoax. I’ve slapped a CSD tag on it. JOE BRO 64 20:54, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

There's generally a lot more leeway in keeping drafts. I don't personally think either need to be deleted. Generally, as long as a draft could potentially lead to a constructive, encyclopedic article someday, they're okay to exist. That said, conceptually, I think it's pretty silly to think that an empty database entry at "instant gaming.com" makes it likely that Sonic Adventure 3 is a real thing. That strikes me as a bit of a stretch, or wishful thinking at least. Sergecross73 msg me 21:36, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

If sonic adventure 3 were to realise it would in 2023 or 2024 because sega is going to be focusing on updating sonic frontiers to make it better and release some dlc's of some kind 84.226.173.166 (talk) 19:18, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Sonic Frontiers → Untitled 2022 Sonic game – While Sega did register a trademark, it has not been officially linked to this game. We should wait for an official announcement. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 03:52, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Support for now. JOEBRO64 04:07, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- I've actually just gone ahead and moved it to Untitled Sonic game, since I doubt the move will be controversial JOE BRO 64 04:14, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Now, since the article clearly says that the name of the game will in fact be "Sonic Frontiers" after all, I have moved the article back to Sonic Frontiers. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 15:39, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

Sonic Frontier domain registered

The page http://frontiers.sonicthehedgehog.com/ has been created, and I think this should be added after where it says about Frontier and Frontiers being trademarked. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LegateLaurie (talk • contribs) 22:48, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Hub vs Open Worlds

This edit request to Sonic Frontiers has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Sonic adventure DX released in 2003 was an open world game so therefore it is not the first open world sonic game 72.94.5.135 (talk) 08:44, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 09:48, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

The game has some non-linearity to it, but it's not generally really considered full open world. Sergecross73 msg me 14:36, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Hub worlds =/= open worlds. JOE BRO 64 14:46, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

I've edited the header title to re-focus on what it actually is discussing. The nature of hub vs open worlds is a lengthy debate. I do think that if you are going to call Frontiers the first "open world" game - it should be done in the context of acknowledging Sonic Jam and Sonic Adventure. Sonic 2006 arguably was more of a Hub world because it did not include the ability to adventure. Also, it's very questionable today how much "open" Frontiers is, and may fall closer to the "hub" definition people are noting. 73.90.174.250 (talk) 22:49, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

I disagree. I don't believe most people are going to be confused about any of this. No one with any common sense is going to consider Sonic Jam the first open world Sonic game. Sergecross73 msg me 19:34, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
