The voice cast on the upcoming series includes Deven Mack as Sonic, Brian Drummond as Eggman, Ashleigh Ball as Tails, Shannon Chan-Kent as Amy Rose, Adam Nurada as Knuckles, and Ian Hanlin as Shadow and Big the Cat.

While there's still more than a month to go until Sonic Prime releases, fans of the franchise will have plenty to keep them busy in the month of November. The highly-anticipated Sonic Frontiers video game is set to release on November 8th, and it looks like a major departure from previous Sonic titles. The game will offer open-world environments to explore, and combat inspired by the Sonic live-action films.
