Today marks the release of Sonic Frontiers’ second free content update, which celebrates Sonic’s birthday.

Sonic’s Birthday Bash update includes new challenges, abilities, and a new type of collectible Koco. The update also promises complimentary birthday decorations for our protagonist, in addition to the inclusion of New Game Plus. As is typical with most New Game Plus modes, you can restart the adventure with all of your skill tree and power-up levels transferred over into the new file.

Sonic’s Birthday Bash is available for free download beginning at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET today. In March, the first of three content updates was released, introducing a photo mode, Cyber Space Challenges, and Battle Rush mode, as well as a jukebox containing collectible tunes from Sonic’s past. Later this year, the third update, which promises to be the most substantive, will introduce new playable characters and a new narrative.
