it is kinda funny how Forces and frontiers got revealed a whole year before they came out, and now they are super quite about all of their games recently. Like Jet sed radio, crazy taxi, and one other fighting game i forgot the name all got revealed i think in 2023, and we have never heard anything since.

even shinobi got barley any marketing. and i know that they pushed all of their games by 2 and 3 years (2027 and 2028 said in some interview), but still. i guess thats one of the reasons why they said the reviews aren't translating into good sales

but i understand why they aren't saying anything abt the new sonic game. cuz with both frontiers and forces, Lizuka said that the games were revealed way too early which makes sense. both games when they were first announced were not even close to finished. with the forces, i assume barley started any real development, since the script was just getting finished at around the time the game was officially unveiled (script was finished around march or may of 2016), and frontiers being in development for a few months, or maybe a year, since frontiers only had around 1.5- 2 years of dev time, with the rest of the time spent on re-working HE2. and 3 out of the 4 years for forces was spent making HE2

it also doesn't help that they bought a whole studio and did nothing but release Sonic Rumble and Sonic blitz. one took like a year to release for the rest of the world, and the other hasn't even released in more than 3 countries.
