For a multitude of different reasons, Sonic Frontiers turned out to be a huge success! A more serious story, more ambitious game play, a renewed focus on the characters! But did this new focus work? Is the extended cast any more important by the end of Frontiers than they were by the end of Sonic Forces? Knuckles is one of the most well known characters in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, as well as one of its longest standing cast members! Becoming the original rival of Sonic the Hedgehog all the way back in 1994! Through the Death Egg saga, Perfect Chaos, the Ark incident with Shadow the Hedgehog, Neo Metal Sonic, The Time Eater, Infinite? Knuckles has been by Sonic's side through it all, but that last decade has been very tough for his character. So how does he fair in Sonic Frontiers? After such a long time of being either dumb, or completely inconsequential, is it even possible to redeem Knuckles the Echidna? There is a lot of rebuilding that needs to be done here to return our beloved Guardian to his former Glory! So let's analyze how Knuckles fit into the story of Sonic Frontiers, and how it might impact his character going forward! Ian Flynn has done a LOT of good for the IDW Sonic series, but does that transfer to his first time writing for the game series?
