Description

Ares Island is home to a "sizzling desert" that seems to house a number of varying desert structures, including rocky ground and high, plateauing outcroppings, as well as long stretches of sand dunes. The island's plant life consists of palm trees and patchy desert grass. A select few of these cacti display biofluorescence, glowing bright blue at night.

Ancient Ruins, Temples and Cave Systems allowing for a faster way to travel on the island can also be found. Similar to the previous island, Ares Islands also includes structures such as Dr. Eggman's bases, a tall tower, as well structures the player can interact with, like Cyber Cages, Cyber Space Portals and Chaos Emerald Vaults.

As this island is completely made of deserts, water, while not devoid of it, is still uncommon, being found only near the Drain the water to move on Island Mystery and surrounding the island. The island is also surrounded by unknown, inaccessible, rocky-like areas.

Like Kronos Island, the island's only inhabitants are the Kocos, Elder Kocos, Hermit Kocos and the enemies/Guardians/Titan of this island.

History

Past

Ares Island was one of the five Starfall Islands inhabited by the Ancients. While not much is known about the island's history, some of the Ancients' soldiers resided here, one unit being helped by Knuckles the Echidna in the future as Kocos.[3]

Sonic Frontiers

Prior to the events of Sonic Frontiers, after a fight with an Asura, Knuckles the Echidna was trapped in a Cyber Cage on this island.[4]

Later, after the defeat of Giganto, Super Sonic would be sent by the mysterious voice to the sand-scarred island. Here, however, he was taken down by the lasers, losing all seven Chaos Emeralds. The blue hedgehog would then find Knuckles, trapped in a Cyber Cage. Some time after the Echidna was freed, Sage would awaken Wyvern, sending it to chase after Sonic. The girl would then inform that this is his final warning. Sonic and Sage would later met again, the latter trying to attack Sonic, which was saved by Knuckles. The two would later decide to drain a local oasis.

Sonic would later encounter Knuckles, who was helping a Koco Soldiers Unit to link with other units. After helping them to reunite with another unit, Knuckles and Sonic would be transported into the past, while a Koco Soldier falls down. Meanwhile, in Cyber Space, Dr. Eggman would tell Sage that she will be a refreshing change of pace from Orbot and Cubot, planning to give her full control to the EggNet. Later, she would confirm to the doctor that Sonic entered multiple times into the digital dimension. Asking him why he respects Sonic, as well curses him at the same time, Eggman would respond that he hates the hedgehog, but he is still a formidable adversary.

Knuckles would then return to help the Koco Soldier Units. At some point, he realizes that the ruins look similar to the ones on Angel Island. Later, he would have a conversation with Sonic, telling the hedgehog that the Kocos reminds him that he is the last Echidna, as well the cataclysm that wiped them out. He would also admit that he envies Sonic's lifestyle, being free to go wherever he wants, whenever he wants. Knuckles would then observe than an ancient Machinery was activated. Sonic would tell him that this happened on the previous island as well. Even though Knuckles was worried that he is missing an Emerald, the hedgehog would inform him that on the last island, it was located on the back of the Titan.

After claiming the last Chaos Emerald, Sonic fights Wyvern, turning into Super Sonic. With the second Titan defeated, Sonic would have a final conversation with Knuckles, which tells him that the fight would be finished faster if he was "Super Knuckles". Sonic would then leave to find the third Titan, hoping that he would find Tails.
Gameplay

The gameplay in Ares Island is similar to the previous island, with mainly 3D gameplay and little to no 2D, as well regular gimmicks, the majority sporting cyan and purple color schemes.
