It’s a win-win, but there goes sega’s counterproductive logic again lol.Sonic Frontiers has already been delayed out of 2021 to make quality improvements. Pretty sure the majority of the fanbase has given up on the games, so lowering the price would give them all an incentive to give the franchise one last chance, and increase sales. I dunno about them, but it would’ve made more sense to “ the price at early stage to increase the number of unit sales”. The die-hard fans and first-time fans are obviously going to buy on instinct, as they have with every bad sonic game (Lost World, Boom, Forces, etc)

The series has been on thin ice for years, so having this release at $60 is either going to be an instant pass to most and a hit-or-miss to the rest because of the reputation. Yeah the value of the Sonic franchise is nowhere close to a high level. Talking about how they need to “maintain the price by maintaining the value of the IP at high level”. “For the pricing strategy, we feel that we are at a point where we need to rethink.” LOL, but they didn’t rethink anything.
They talk all this, but fail to deliver and learn from their blatant mistakes. They can talk as much as they want about wanting to improve quality and having high expectations for the game’s impact on the series, but at the end of the day it’s been the same thing with every game post-generations. Many thanks to Greatsong1 for the news tip! For example, for the new Sonic game, as we are focusing on quality and spending certain amount of money on development, we think it is important to maintain the price by maintaining the value of the IP at high level, rather than simply lowering the price at early stage to increase the number of unit sales.” SEGASammy Investor Q&A “For the pricing strategy, we feel that we are at a point where we need to rethink. Not only for this title, but during the development phase, we have been steadily conducting analysis to improve the quality of the title before release, such as introducing game testing based on external evaluations, and I have a feeling that it will become a good game and have high expectations for it.” SEGASammy Investor Q&A “Originally it was planned to be released on this year, the 30th anniversary of Sonic, but we have postponed the release for a year in order to further brush up the quality. Sonic Frontiers launches later this year. Now, let’s hope that the Sonic Team can pull it off. SEGA concluded by saying that they are fully “focusing on quality” and that they are committed to spending a significant amount of money on the development and marketing of Sonic Frontiers.

SEGA has also told investors that because of their confidence in the final product they will be selling Sonic Frontiers as a full price game, unlike other games in the series, which have been given a discount upon release. Therefore, they have announced that they have introduced game testing “based on external evaluations” and that the team at SEGA feel as though Sonic Frontiers is shaping up to be very promising and that internally they have “high expectations” for the 2022 game. SEGA told investors that they have spent a lot of time conducting analysis on Sonic Frontiers to make sure that it lives up to fans expectations and does the long-running franchise justice. Speaking to investors, SEGA says that Sonic Frontiers was originally meant to be released in 2021, however they decided to push it back to make sure that it fully lives up to gamers expectations, unlike other more recent 3D Sonic games. Judging from the teaser trailer which was shown at the event, the game will be an ambitious open world 3D Sonic game. SEGA and the Sonic Team finally unveiled the next mainline game in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, Sonic Frontiers, at The Game Awards last month.
