As announced on the official Twitter account, Sonic Frontiers will be getting a Christmas-themed costume, known as the Holiday Cheer Suit to celebrate the aforementioned holiday. This costume is available now, and like the other upcoming updates, will be released for free. This costume dresses the blue hedgehog in the same garb as Santa Claus, complete with a jacket and hat. The official Twitter account showed this costume off with a new render of Sonic as well.
It should be noted this isn’t the first time that the Sonic franchise has done holiday-themed celebrations. There have been the occasional piece of official Sonic Channel art that has characters like Blaze the Cat or Silver the Hedgehog dressed for the holidays, with the last time a mainline Sonic game had holiday-themed content was in the original Dreamcast release of Sonic Adventure. That game had Christmas-themed DLC that added things like a Christmas tree and even changed the music if the player interacted with it.
Sonic Frontiers is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
