Fans are calling Sonic Frontiers’ DLC ‘the hardest gameplay in any Sonic game’
A number of Sonic fans are criticising the final DLC for Sonic Frontiers for being too difficult.
The Final Horizon is the third and final free DLC download for the game, and adds new story content and missions as well as other features.
Players can also play as Tails, Knuckles or Amy for the first time in the game, each of whom has their own unique powers and abilities.
However, numerous players say some of the new content is far harder than anything else in the game, with some saying it’s the most difficult gameplay they’ve ever experienced in a Sonic game.
Fans across Twitter, Reddit and various forums have been venting their frustration with some of the new challenges.
These include challenges that require the player to climb a large tower – with perfect platforming skills required and no checkpoints should they fail – and a final boss rush where the player has to defeat every boss in a row with no rings, meaning a single hit will kill Sonic.
A thread on Sonic Frontiers’ GameFAQs forum called “This DLC is way too hard” now stretches to 12 pages, with numerous players sharing their stories.
“I’ve already uninstalled,” said user Cionyl. “I can assure you it doesn’t get any easier. I had no idea this was meant to be some sort of Very Hard super challenge. I just wanted to see the alternative ending and screw around with the other characters.”
