Sonic Frontiers introduced a slew of changes to the series' established formula, including open zone exploration and new combat and traversal abilities to overcome all the challenges the Starfall Islands throw at you. But if that wasn't a dramatic enough change for you, there's now a mod that sees the blue blur star in his very own Kingdom Hearts-style RPG.
That mod is Sonic Versus Heartless by @somnusNemoris_. Using Kingdom Hearts 3 as a framework, it places Sonic in the oversized shoes of the series' regular protagonist Sora. Not only that, but its creator is planning to include a bunch of content themed around Sega's iconic series, including custom bosses and animated cutscenes. Sonic isn't merely a reskinned Sora, either. He's also got his own moveset, and in place of a Keyblade, he seemingly wields his sword from the 2009 Wii game Sonic and the Black Knight.
