Sonic Frontiers has officially shared two minutes of the game's main vocal theme. This serves as a follow-up to how Sega released the ending theme of the game just a few days ago, which helps fans get a look at how the game will sound after months of vague ambient music during showcases. The song is showcased in a lyric video with text layered over cinematics and gameplay from previous Sonic Frontiers trailers.
The main theme is titled «I'm Here,» it and was a collaborative effort between the lead composer of Sonic Frontiers, Tomoya Ohtani, and the vocalist of To Octavia, Merry Kirk-Holmes. To Octavia is an Australian metal band, and Merry Kirk-Holmes is credited as the song's lyricist as well. Tomoya Ohtani, however, is a rather prominent Sonic composer who's worked on the series since Sonic Adventure 2.

Unlike Sonic Frontiers' ending theme, which was fully revealed by the band who helped create the song, currently only a preview of «I'm Here» was shared. Fans can most likely look forward to hearing the full song
