Sonic the Hedgehog's latest game has had gamers talking all throughout June as Sonic Frontiers reveals gameplay details, combat mechanics, and more throughout the month. As part of Summer Game Fest, players got to experience the game for the first time during an in-person event in Los Angeles. Amid the first impressions finding their way onto the internet, further details on things such as Sonic Frontiers' control scheme are slowly being revealed.

Sonic fans have been eager for news on Frontiers since the game was teased just over a year ago. Despite a promising announcement trailer at the Game Awards, almost nothing was known about it until recently. While the first gameplay footage of Sonic Frontiers wasn't received well by many gamers at first, first impressions from critics seem to be leaning in a more positive direction.

Switzer also states that these controls pop up the instant the demo begins.
